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 resin job in Old Trafford starts the same way: we check whether your existing surface is sound enough to overlay or needs digging out, because that decides both the price and how long the surface lasts. Plots around Old Trafford are often generous, so turning areas and longer runs of edging are part of many quotes.

Typical projects we can quote for in Old Trafford include swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put, replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build and overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive. More about resin over tarmac and concrete.

Prices for resin over tarmac and concrete in Old Trafford

Guide prices for Old Trafford are based on North West rates, which are a little below the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.

For a 31 m² drive in Old Trafford: about £1,300–£2,000 as an overlay on a sound base, or roughly £2,150–£3,450 if the old surface has to come out for a dig-out and new permeable base.

Planning in Old Trafford

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. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Greater Manchester, but dry, mild winter days can work too.

How it works

The steps are simple: guide price, free survey, written quote with a fixed price once the specification is agreed, then a date that suits you and the weather.
