Resin Driveways by Hertsmere Driveways

What we do

Resin Driveways in Hertfordshire

Resin bound has become the first choice for homeowners who want a sleek, modern driveway that performs as well as it looks. Natural stone is bound in a high-quality clear resin, then troweled to a smooth, seamless surface with no loose gravel to kick up or migrate onto the pavement.

Because the finished surface is permeable, rainwater drains straight through it rather than pooling, which meets SuDS drainage guidance for front gardens. You choose the stone blend and colour, and with UV-stable resin the colour stays true instead of fading in the sun.

Laid over a sound base, a resin driveway will give you 15 to 20 years of hard-wearing service with very little upkeep.

Case study

Project in Knebworth

This large-scale transformation involved a full excavation, complete removal of the existing driveway, demolition of the old retaining walls, new upright sleeper walls, a permeable tarmac base and around 160m² of resin-bound surfacing — completed within ten days.

A key feature was the sleeper work: we replaced the old walls with new upright sleepers around the driveway and garden, giving sharp lines and strong retaining edges. Over the permeable base we laid the resin-bound surface (supplied by SUDS UK) for a bright, clean, low-maintenance finish.

To frame the resin we installed Bradstone Woburn Autumn Gold paving and key kerbs, giving neat, defined edges and a high-end finish that completely transformed the front of the property.

Honest, upfront pricing

What Affects the Price

No two resin driveways jobs are the same, so we never quote a rough figure over the phone. After a free, no-obligation site survey you get a single fixed price in writing, agreed before we start. These are the main things that move that price up or down:

  • 1The area in square metres
  • 2The condition of the existing base and how much excavation is needed
  • 3The stone blend you choose
  • 4Access to the site and how waste has to be removed
  • 5Any drainage, edging or steps that form part of the job
  • 6Whether the existing base can be reused or a new sub-base is needed

Resin Driveways: Common Questions

How long does a resin driveway take to lay?

Most domestic resin driveways are laid in one to three days, depending on the size and how much groundwork the base needs.

Is a resin driveway slippery?

No. The natural stone gives a textured grip underfoot, and we can add an anti-slip aggregate where a drive is steep or shaded.

Does resin let water drain away?

Yes. A resin-bound surface is permeable, so rainwater soaks straight through it rather than running off, which helps with SuDS drainage rules.

Can you lay resin over my existing driveway?

Sometimes. If the existing surface is sound and drains freely, resin can be laid over it; if it is cracked or moving we build a fresh permeable base first so the finish lasts.

What stone colours can I choose from?

A wide range, from pale creams and golds to greys and blacks. You pick the blend, and we can show you samples on site so you can picture the finished drive.
