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 Newton Mearns says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Newton Mearns mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
In Newton Mearns we can price work such as replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build, adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage and overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive. More about resin bound driveways.

Planning in Newton Mearns
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.
General information for Scotland, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
The West of Scotland is one of the wettest parts of the UK, which makes permeable driveways and careful laying-day planning especially important. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Renfrewshire and Inverclyde, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
