Resin driveway restoration across Dorset
Resin driveway restoration brings a worn or discoloured resin surface back by deep cleaning, repairing damaged areas and, where the existing layer is still sound, applying a fresh treatment or overlay. Where the original layer has failed, the honest answer is to relay it.
Discolouration has different causes. Non-UV-stable resin yellows and darkens in sunlight; algae and dirt darken pores; tyre marks and oil stain the surface. Each needs a different fix, so we start by working out which it is.
In Bournemouth we can price work such as diagnosing loose stones on a drive laid by someone else, treating moss and algae under trees and deep-cleaning a resin drive that has gone green in the shade.

Planning in Dorset
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.
Weather and working days
The South West gets more rain than the east of England, especially on higher ground, so permeability and falls matter on every drive. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.
