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 Cheadle Hulme we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Cheadle Hulme mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
Projects we quote in and around Cheadle Hulme include framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts, swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put and adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage. More about resin over tarmac and concrete.
Prices for resin over tarmac and concrete in Cheadle Hulme
Labour and material costs in the North West run a little below the UK average, and the guide figures below reflect that. They include VAT and are confirmed after a survey.

Planning in Cheadle Hulme
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 North West is one of the wetter parts of England, so laying days are picked carefully and drainage under the drive gets extra attention. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.
