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.
In Stevenage, as anywhere, the base is the part that decides how long a resin surface lasts. The survey settles whether we overlay, repair or rebuild it. Drives in Stevenage range from single-car frontages to wide plots, which is why every price follows a measured survey.
Typical projects we can quote for in Stevenage include turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface, swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put and widening a drive into the front garden for a second car. More about resin bound driveways.
Prices for resin bound driveways in Stevenage
Guide prices for Stevenage are based on East of England rates, which are above the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.
As a guide, a 32 m² drive in the SG1 area would be around £1,550–£2,400 laid over a sound existing base, rising to about £2,600–£4,150 with a dig-out and new permeable base.
| Service | Guide price inc VAT |

| Dropped kerb applications | about £1,000–£2,500 per crossing, set by the highway authority |

Planning in Stevenage
In England, a new or replaced hard surface of more than 5 m² in a front garden is permitted development only if it is porous, or if rainwater drains to a lawn, border or soakaway within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
Permitted development rights apply to houses, not flats or maisonettes, and some conservation areas have Article 4 directions that remove them. Listed buildings can need consent if railings or historic walls are affected.
General information for England, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
The East of England is the driest part of the UK, which gives a long resin laying season, though heavy clays in places mean the sub-base needs designing for slow drainage. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.
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.
