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 Reigate, 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. Plots around Reigate are often generous, so turning areas and longer runs of edging are part of many quotes.
Across Surrey, the projects we price include turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface, 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 Reigate
For the South East, where typical costs are above the UK average, these are the ranges we would expect before seeing your property.
Worked example: a 43 m² drive in Reigate laid as an overlay on sound tarmac or concrete would typically come to about £2,150–£3,350. The same area with a dig-out and new permeable base would be nearer £3,600–£5,800.

Planning in Reigate
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. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Reigate jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
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.
