Resin bound driveways across Lanarkshire
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.
Because the stones are bound together rather than stuck on top, the surface is porous. Laid over a permeable base, water passes through it rather than running off onto the road, which is why resin bound can usually be laid across a front garden without planning permission in England.
Across Lanarkshire, the projects we price include framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts, widening a drive into the front garden for a second car and turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface.
Prices in Lanarkshire
Guide prices for Lanarkshire are based on Central Scotland rates, which are below the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.
Resin bound driveways: £40–£105 per m².
For a 70 m² drive in Lanarkshire: about £2,800–£4,350 as an overlay on a sound base, or roughly £4,650–£7,500 if the old surface has to come out for a dig-out and new permeable base.
Planning in Lanarkshire
Scotland's householder permitted development rules allow many hard surfaces at a house where the surface is porous or water drains to a permeable area within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
Flats, listed buildings and conservation areas are treated differently, so if any of those apply we suggest a quick check with your council's planning team before work starts.
Weather and working days
Central Scotland gets steady rainfall through the year, so a permeable build and well-planned falls keep drives free of standing water. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.
