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.
In Eastleigh, as anywhere, the base is the part that decides how long a resin surface lasts. The survey settles whether we overlay, repair or rebuild it. Eastleigh mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
Projects we quote in and around Eastleigh include building a fully permeable drive on a front garden, replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build and framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts. More about resin over tarmac and concrete.
Prices for resin over tarmac and concrete in Eastleigh
Guide prices for Eastleigh are based on South East rates, which are above the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.
For a 35 m² drive in Eastleigh: 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 Eastleigh
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. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Hampshire, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
How it works
You start with a guide price, we visit to measure and check the site, you get a written quote, and we book the work for suitable weather.
