Is resin-bound the same as resin-bonded?

No - resin-bound is a fully permeable trowelled finish and is what we install. Resin-bonded is loose stone glued to a surface and it sheds over time - we don't offer it.

Can resin go over my existing driveway?

Yes, if the tarmac or concrete is sound and has proper drainage. If it's cracked or lifting, we rebuild the base first.

How long does it last?

A properly installed resin-bound drive holds up for 15-20 years with only an occasional pressure wash.

Does it stay looking clean?

It sheds water, doesn't hold weeds and stays lighter than tarmac; oil drips can be lifted with resin-safe cleaner.

Do I need planning permission?

Permeable resin-bound drains into its own sub-base, so it's normally permitted development. We confirm on the visit.

Do you cover Aldershot?

Yes - Aldershot is inside our 30-mile coverage zone from Ash Vale and we work in GU11, GU12 every week.

How quickly can you quote a resin driveway in Aldershot?

Most Aldershot enquiries get a free site visit within five working days and a written quote within a week of that visit.

How long does a resin driveway take?

Allow 2-4 working days on a typical Aldershot property. Sloping plots, restricted access or larger formats add to that and we'll flag it on the quote.

Do I need permission from Rushmoor Borough Council?

For most resin driveway work, no - but anything affecting the public highway (dropped kerbs) or a conservation frontage goes through Rushmoor Borough Council. We'll tell you on the visit which forms apply.

Service

Resin Driveways

Resin-bound driveways look sharp, drain freely and don't shed loose stone. The finish is only as good as what sits under it, so we treat the base as the real job and the resin coat as the finish.

Why us

30+ years on the tools across Surrey & Hampshire. Family-run, fully insured, no subcontracted crews.

Local factors we plan around

existing tarmac fronts that are sound enough to overlay, saving a full excavation
clay-heavy plots where the open-graded sub-base has to be deeper to stop resin lifting in frost
shaded, tree-lined frontages where a lighter aggregate keeps the front elevation from feeling closed in
period fronts where a natural quartz blend suits the brickwork better than a modern black tarmac look
