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 Hastings we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Drives in Hastings range from single-car frontages to wide plots, which is why every price follows a measured survey.
In Hastings we can price work such as widening a drive into the front garden for a second car, adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage and overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive. More about resin over tarmac and concrete.

For the South East, where typical costs are above the UK average, these are the ranges we would expect before seeing your property.
For a 35 m² drive in Hastings: about £1,750–£2,750 as an overlay on a sound base, or roughly £2,950–£4,700 if the old surface has to come out for a dig-out and new permeable base.

Planning in Hastings
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.
How it works
