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 resin job in Leatherhead starts the same way: we check whether your existing surface is sound enough to overlay or needs digging out, because that decides both the price and how long the surface lasts. Many homes in Leatherhead have existing tarmac or block drives that can be assessed for an overlay or a rebuild.
Typical projects we can quote for in Leatherhead include overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive, framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts and adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage. More about resin bound driveways.
Prices for resin bound driveways in Leatherhead
Labour and material costs in the South East run above the UK average, and the guide figures below reflect that. They include VAT and are confirmed after a survey.
As a guide, a 62 m² drive in the KT21 area would be around £3,100–£4,850 laid over a sound existing base, rising to about £5,200–£8,350 with a dig-out and new permeable base.

Planning in Leatherhead
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 South East is relatively dry, with long laying seasons, but clay soils are common across much of the region and can drain slowly. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Leatherhead jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
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.
