What resin driveway repairs involve
A resin driveway repair cuts out a damaged area of resin bound, fixes whatever caused it where possible, and refills it with a matched aggregate blend. Common faults are cracking over a failing base, loose stones from a thin or under-mixed layer, and damage from oil, fuel or skips.
Before quoting aftercare in Colinton we look at the age of the surface, the resin used if known, and whether the layer is still well bonded. Plots around Colinton are often generous, so turning areas and longer runs of edging are part of many quotes.
In Colinton we can price work such as cutting out and refilling a cracked patch with a matched blend, restoring a tired, patchy resin drive and diagnosing loose stones on a drive laid by someone else. More about resin driveway repairs.

Planning in Colinton
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.
