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 quote we prepare in Wellington says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Around Wellington, longer drives and rural access are common, so deliveries and mixing space are planned at survey.
Typical projects we can quote for in Wellington include swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put, overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive and replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build. More about resin over tarmac and concrete.
Prices for resin over tarmac and concrete in Wellington
Labour and material costs in the West Midlands run close to the UK average, and the guide figures below reflect that. They include VAT and are confirmed after a survey.
Worked example: a 54 m² drive in Wellington laid as an overlay on sound tarmac or concrete would typically come to about £2,450–£3,800. The same area with a dig-out and new permeable base would be nearer £4,050–£6,500.

Planning in Wellington
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 West Midlands is close to the UK average for rainfall, and much of the region sits on clay that holds water after wet spells. Laying days in Wellington are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
