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 Ossett says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. In and around Ossett, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
Projects we quote in and around Ossett include overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive, replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build and swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put. More about resin over tarmac and concrete.
Prices for resin over tarmac and concrete in Ossett
Labour and material costs in Yorkshire and the Humber run a little below the UK average, and the guide figures below reflect that. They include VAT and are confirmed after a survey.

Planning in Ossett
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
Rainfall varies widely across Yorkshire, from the drier Vale of York to wetter Pennine towns, and cold snaps shorten the laying season at either end. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in West Yorkshire, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
