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.
Any quote we prepare in Ryde says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. In and around Ryde, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
In Ryde we can price work such as swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put, adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage and building a fully permeable drive on a front garden. More about resin bound driveways.
Prices for resin bound driveways in Ryde
Guide prices for Ryde are based on South East rates, which are above the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.
Worked example: a 45 m² drive in Ryde laid as an overlay on sound tarmac or concrete would typically come to about £2,250–£3,550. The same area with a dig-out and new permeable base would be nearer £3,800–£6,050.

Planning in Ryde
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 South East is relatively dry, with long laying seasons, but clay soils are common across much of the region and can drain slowly. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in the Isle of Wight, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
