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 Blantyre we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Plots around Blantyre are often generous, so turning areas and longer runs of edging are part of many quotes.
Across Lanarkshire, the projects we price include replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build, building a fully permeable drive on a front garden and turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface. More about resin over tarmac and concrete.

Planning in Blantyre
Scotland's householder permitted development rules allow many hard surfaces at a house where the surface is porous or water drains to a permeable area 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.
Flats, listed buildings and conservation areas are treated differently, so if any of those apply we suggest a quick check with your council's planning team before work starts.
General information for Scotland, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
Central Scotland gets steady rainfall through the year, so a permeable build and well-planned falls keep drives free of standing water. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.
