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 Nottingham says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Nottingham has everything from tight terraced frontages to large suburban drives, so no two quotes look the same.
Projects we quote in and around Nottingham include framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts, turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface and widening a drive into the front garden for a second car. More about resin bound driveways.

For a 56 m² drive in Nottingham: about £2,500–£3,900 as an overlay on a sound base, or roughly £4,200–£6,700 if the old surface has to come out for a dig-out and new permeable base.

Planning in Nottingham
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.

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.
How it works
Get a guide price online, book a free survey, receive an itemised written quote, then agree a date. Most drives over a ready base are laid in a day.
