Resin driveways make great alternatives to tarmac or concrete for front and back gardens, and make great surfaces for paths. But don’t get stung for too much money. Find out what the costs are for your specific resin driveway.
Size and the Square Metre Rate
Resin driveways are normally charged by the square meter, usually in the region of £40-£80 per square meter, depending on area and specification. It’s worth noting that the price per square meter can actually drop for larger areas as the costs for setting up are split over a larger area.
Base Preparation
Another big factor in resin driveway cost is the base preparation. Depending on the current surface, this can be laid straight down on top or a whole new sub base created and compacted. This will add to the overall cost in terms of labour and materials.
Aggregate Choice
Resin can be mixed with a variety of aggregate grades and colours, which can all impact on the final price. A ‘standard’ grade of aggregate is very durable and perfect for most resin driveways. However some more premium blends such as the Scottish quartz or natural flint can cost significantly more per tonne, and therefore can increase the final price of the resin driveway.
Drainage and SuDS Requirements
The thickness of the resin bound surface needed to meet SuDS requirements for permeable surfaces will need to be specified for front gardens where work is to be done under permitted development.
What the Quote May Not Include
Also ensure that any additional requirements (such as the use of drainage channels) and also removal of existing line markings are included in the quote.
