Resin Bound Driveways in Solihull

Driveways on Solihull housing

The interwar semis and detached houses that make up much of the borough came with a generous frontage, and a big share of the driveway work we do in Solihull is turning a tired tarmac or crazy-paved front into a seamless resin bound drive with a block paved border. Because the area is large the base matters even more: a proper dig, a compacted MOT sub-base, and either a permeable build-up or a drainage channel so the water does not run to the pavement.

Resin bound is permeable by design, which is what keeps it inside permitted development.

In Knowle, Dorridge and Hampton-in-Arden the frontages can be larger still and often gravel, and the request is for something that stays put and looks right against an older house. We will show you samples in the actual light of your drive, because the same aggregate reads very differently in shade and in sun. A dropped kerb or widening goes through Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council as the highway authority, and we submit that as part of the job.
