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 Stafford says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Stafford mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
In Stafford we can price work such as overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive, framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts and swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put. More about resin bound driveways.

Planning in Stafford
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 West Midlands is close to the UK average for rainfall, and much of the region sits on clay that holds water after wet spells. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Staffordshire, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
