Resin Bound Driveways in Sevenoaks, TN13

If your drive in Sevenoaks is cracked, stained or sunk in places, resin bound surfacing is one of the best ways to transform it. The aggregate is fully coated in resin before laying, giving a hard-wearing, permeable finish with a wide choice of colours and blends.

Pro Paving installs resin bound driveways from start to finish: removing the old surface where needed, building a sound sub-base, fitting edging and laying the resin by hand. You deal with one team from quote to completion.

Resin colours, blends and bases

Resin bound can be laid over sound existing tarmac or concrete, or onto a new open-graded macadam base if the old drive has failed. We’ll tell you honestly which applies after looking at it. Popular blends include silver greys, warm golds and autumn tones. We use UV-stable resin so lighter colours don’t yellow over time.

Resin bound is permeable, so in most cases it meets the rules on paving front gardens without the need for extra drainage. That’s a big reason it’s chosen for front drives.

Local resin bound surfacing specialists in Sevenoaks

Resin bound suits the period and detached homes around Sevenoaks particularly well. The natural stone blends look at home alongside older brick and stone, and the surface stays put on slopes, unlike gravel. Sevenoaks sits on the Greensand Ridge, so many drives in Kippington, Riverhead and Sevenoaks Weald have noticeable gradients. On these we pay close attention to the base, edge restraints and an anti-slip finish. Resin bound gravel is also popular for paths and patios in larger gardens. We cover TN13, TN14 and TN15, from Dunton Green and Otford to Seal and Ightham.

Sevenoaks has more larger detached homes, period properties and long or sloping drives than most of our patch, along with several conservation areas around the town.

Vehicle crossings on Kent roads are approved by Kent County Council. If your home is in one of Sevenoaks’ conservation areas, we’ll also flag anything that may need a conversation with Sevenoaks District Council.

We cover Sevenoaks and nearby areas including: Riverhead, Dunton Green, Kippington, Sevenoaks Weald, Otford, Kemsing, Seal. Our base in Meopham is about 10 miles away, so a free site visit is easy to arrange.

Why choose Pro Paving for resin bound surfacing

Permeable

Water drains through the surface rather than pooling or running off onto the pavement, which also helps with the rules on paving front gardens.

No loose stones

Unlike gravel, every stone is bound in resin, so nothing kicks up, scatters or gets walked into the house.

Low maintenance

A regular sweep and a gentle wash once or twice a year keep it looking fresh.

Durable and flexible

A properly laid resin bound surface resists cracking and frost and lasts for many years on a sound base.

Resin Bound Driveways in Sevenoaks: FAQs

Is resin bound suitable for a sloping drive in Sevenoaks?

Yes. On steeper drives we strengthen the base and edges and add an anti-slip finish to the resin so it stays grippy in wet and frosty weather. We'll check the gradient at the site visit and advise honestly if another surface would be better.

How long does a resin bound driveway last?

On a properly prepared base and with basic care, a resin bound driveway can last 15 to 20 years or more.

Can resin be laid over my existing driveway?

Often, yes. If the existing tarmac or concrete is sound and stable, resin can go straight over it after repairs. If it's breaking up or sinking, we'll recommend a new base instead.

Is resin bound slippery?

No. With the right aggregate it's slip-resistant, and an anti-slip finish can be added on slopes.

Will weeds grow through resin bound?

Weeds can't push up through a resin bound surface laid on a proper base. Occasional moss or seeds on the surface simply sweep off.

Do you cover Sevenoaks and the surrounding area?

Yes. We work across TN13, TN14 and TN15, including Riverhead, Dunton Green, Kippington, Sevenoaks Weald, Otford. Our base is in Meopham, about 10 miles away, and site visits and quotes are free.
