What resin bound driveways involve
A resin bound driveway is a surface of natural stone aggregate mixed with clear polyurethane resin and trowelled by hand to a depth of around 18 mm on driveways. Every stone is fully coated, so the finish is smooth, has no loose gravel, and lets rainwater drain straight through it.
Before quoting in Bangor, Gwynedd we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Plots around Bangor, Gwynedd are often generous, so turning areas and longer runs of edging are part of many quotes.
Across Gwynedd, the projects we price include adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage, replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build and overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive. More about resin bound driveways.

Planning in Bangor, Gwynedd
Wales has its own permitted development rules on the same principle: a front-garden hard surface should be porous or drain to a permeable area on the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
In Wales, new construction with drainage implications covering 100 m² or more can also need approval from the council's SuDS Approving Body (SAB). Most domestic drives are smaller than that, but larger drives and extensions are checked at survey.
General information for Wales, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
North Wales ranges from mild coastal towns to wetter upland areas, so drainage and laying days are planned with the weather in mind. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
How it works
You start with a guide price, we visit to measure and check the site, you get a written quote, and we book the work for suitable weather.
