FAQs
Resin Driveways — Frequently Asked Questions
Are resin driveways permeable?
Yes. Resin-bound (not resin-bonded) surfaces are fully permeable and SUDS-compliant, allowing water to drain naturally through without planning permission in most cases.
How long does a resin driveway last?
A properly installed resin-bound driveway on the correct sub-base will last 20+ years with minimal maintenance — just sweeping and an occasional gentle pressure wash.
Can resin be laid over my existing drive?
Only if the existing surface is sound, level and suitable (e.g. tarmac or concrete). We assess this free of charge and advise whether an overlay or full excavation is best.
How much does a resin driveway cost in Shropshire?
Resin bound driveways typically start from around £75–£100 per m² depending on the aggregate choice, area size and whether a new sub-base is required. We provide a free, itemised quotation after surveying your drive in Shrewsbury, Telford or anywhere across Shropshire.
How long does installation take?
Most residential driveways are completed in 2–4 days — one day for sub-base preparation and a day or two for the resin pour and cure. You can usually park on it within 24–48 hours of the final coat.
How do I maintain a resin driveway?
Keep it swept and give it a gentle pressure wash (wide-fan lance, not a pinpoint jet) a couple of times a year. Avoid turning heavy vehicles on the fresh surface and keep oil or fuel spills cleaned up promptly. We'll provide a tailored aftercare sheet on handover.
Do I need planning permission for a resin driveway?
In most cases no. Because resin bound surfacing is permeable and SUDS-compliant, it usually falls under permitted development for front gardens. Larger drives, conservation areas and listed buildings can differ, so we advise on your property during the free site survey.
Is resin better than block paving or tarmac?
Resin gives you a seamless, weed-free finish with no loose joints, block movement or tarmac rutting. Block paving and tarmac cost less upfront, but resin needs almost no maintenance and stays looking new, which is why most Shropshire homeowners choose it for the long term.
Are resin driveways suitable for slopes and large drives?
Yes. Resin bound surfacing is laid to a fall of around 1:60 so water sheds naturally, and we build in drainage channels or stepped lays for steeper gradients. Large drives and long country approaches are one of resin's biggest strengths — with no joints, there are no weak points.
