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 resin job in Arnold starts the same way: we check whether your existing surface is sound enough to overlay or needs digging out, because that decides both the price and how long the surface lasts. Arnold mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
Across Nottinghamshire, the projects we price include adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage, building a fully permeable drive on a front garden and widening a drive into the front garden for a second car. More about resin bound driveways.
Prices for resin bound driveways in Arnold
Guide prices for Arnold are based on East Midlands rates, which are close to the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.
As a guide, a 63 m² drive in the NG5 area would be around £2,850–£4,400 laid over a sound existing base, rising to about £4,700–£7,550 with a dig-out and new permeable base.

Planning in Arnold
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 Midlands sits around the UK average for rainfall, with a mix of clay vales and lighter ground that changes what the base needs. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Nottinghamshire, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
