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 Tamworth we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Plot sizes and existing surfaces vary a lot across Tamworth, so the survey comes before any fixed figure.
In Tamworth we can price work such as turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface, swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put and widening a drive into the front garden for a second car. More about resin bound driveways.

Planning in Tamworth
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. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
How it works
The steps are simple: guide price, free survey, written quote with a fixed price once the specification is agreed, then a date that suits you and the weather.
