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.

Before quoting in Limavady we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Plots around Limavady are often generous, so turning areas and longer runs of edging are part of many quotes.

Across County Londonderry, the projects we price include overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive, framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts and building a fully permeable drive on a front garden. More about resin over tarmac and concrete.

Planning in Limavady

Northern Ireland has its own permitted development order for houses, with conditions on hard surfaces and drainage: the simplest route is a surface that keeps rainwater within your boundary. 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.

Flats, listed buildings and conservation areas are treated differently, so if any of those apply it is worth checking with your council's planning team before work starts.

Weather and working days

Northern Ireland has frequent rain spread through the year, so laying days are planned around dry spells and permeable builds make sense. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in County Londonderry, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
