Resin and Tarmac Driveways in Redditch

Driveways on Redditch housing

The estate housing that makes up most of the town came with a modest hardstanding, often shared, often laid straight onto whatever was there. Households now run two or three cars and the original slab has sunk at the edges, cracked along the middle or lifted where a tree root found it. When we replace one of these we dig it out properly, put in a compacted sub-base at the right depth, and design where the water goes before anything goes on top.

That last part is not optional: a drive that drains onto the road or a neighbour is a planning problem, not just a puddle.

Resin bound is the surface most people in Redditch ask us about, because it is seamless, permeable and does not weed, and it suits the brick fronts on the newer estates well. Tarmac is the economical choice and is what we lay on most larger or shared drives. We price both on the same survey so you can compare like for like.

Widening onto a verge or adding a dropped kerb needs Redditch Borough Council and Worcestershire County Council highways consent, and we will tell you at the survey whether your frontage qualifies.
