What resin over tarmac and concrete involves
A resin overlay is a resin bound surface laid directly on top of an existing tarmac or concrete driveway that is still sound. It is the cheapest way to get a resin drive because there is no dig-out, but it only works when the old surface is level, stable and free of active cracking.
Any resin job in Slough 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. Plot sizes and existing surfaces vary a lot across Slough, so the survey comes before any fixed figure.
Projects we quote in and around Slough include overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive, replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build and turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface. More about resin over tarmac and concrete.
Prices for resin over tarmac and concrete in Slough
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.
For a 36 m² drive in Slough: about £1,800–£2,800 as an overlay on a sound base, or roughly £3,000–£4,850 if the old surface has to come out for a dig-out and new permeable base.

Planning in Slough
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. An overlay on sealed tarmac or concrete does not drain through the old base, so the drive needs to fall towards a lawn, border or soakaway on your land, or the old base comes out for a permeable build.
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. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
