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.
Before quoting in Perth we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Many homes in Perth have existing tarmac or block drives that can be assessed for an overlay or a rebuild.
Projects we quote in and around Perth include framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts, overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive and adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage. More about resin bound driveways.
Prices for resin bound driveways in Perth
Guide prices for Perth are based on Tayside rates, which are below the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.
For a 69 m² drive in Perth: about £2,750–£4,300 as an overlay on a sound base, or roughly £4,600–£7,350 if the old surface has to come out for a dig-out and new permeable base.
| Service | Guide price inc VAT |
|---|---|
| Resin bound driveways | £40–£105 per m² |
| Permeable SuDS driveways | £65–£105 per m² |
| Dropped kerb applications | about £1,000–£2,500 per crossing, set by the highway authority |

Planning in Perth
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
Tayside has cold winters and a shorter laying season, so jobs are usually booked for the warmer months. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
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.
