Resin over tarmac and concrete across County Tyrone
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.
Adding around 18 mm of resin raises the level of the drive, so the survey also checks door thresholds, damp-proof courses, airbricks and drainage channels. In most cases this is handled with edging details or by cutting back at the house.
Across County Tyrone, the projects we price include building a fully permeable drive on a front garden, overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive and adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage.
Prices in County Tyrone
Labour and material costs in Northern Ireland run below the UK average, and the guide figures below reflect that. They include VAT and are confirmed after a survey.
Resin over tarmac and concrete: £40–£60 per m².
As a guide, a 26 m² drive in the BT area would be around £1,050–£1,600 laid over a sound existing base, rising to about £1,700–£2,750 with a dig-out and new permeable base.
Planning in County Tyrone
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 Tyrone, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
