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 quote we prepare in Milton Keynes says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Across Milton Keynes, many front drives are compact, so access, skips and parking for the crew are planned at survey.
Projects we quote in and around Milton Keynes include widening a drive into the front garden for a second car, overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive and adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage. More about resin over tarmac and concrete.

Planning in Milton Keynes
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.

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 Milton Keynes jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
