Earlier preparation and base photos
1
Entrance driveway
The entrance run is a tired tarmac surface with moss, weeds and worn edges visible. This gives a clear before record before the surface is cleaned back and assessed for resin bound preparation.

Concrete yard
The main yard area has aged concrete with surface staining, vegetation around the edges and different levels to consider before the resin bound system is installed.

4
Covers and thresholds
This area shows the sort of detailing that matters before resin bound work starts: covers, thresholds, pipework and levels all need checking so the finished surface sits cleanly and drains correctly.

Side drive
The side drive is a mix of old tarmac and concrete with moss and weeds through the surface. The preparation will focus on creating a sound, clean, stable base ready for the resin bound finish.

Current project questions
Can I view similar completed projects before choosing a driveway?+
Yes. This page shows live and recent work, and completed jobs with approved photos and details are added to individual project pages where suitable.
Do you work across Somerset, Bristol and Devon?+
Yes. Quantock Paving covers Somerset, Bristol and selected Devon areas from its Somerset base, with quotes arranged where the route and project scope are practical.
How long does a resin bound driveway usually take?+
A straightforward overlay can be quicker, while a full dig-out with edging, drainage and base work often takes several days. The timescale depends on size, access and preparation.
Can you quote from photos of my existing driveway or patio?+
Photos are useful for an initial steer. Send the surface, edges, drains, covers, thresholds, access and rough measurements, then a site visit can confirm the written quote where needed.
Do you handle drainage, edging and manhole covers?+
Yes. Drainage channels, edge restraints, steps, thresholds and recessed manhole covers are planned with the surface rather than treated as afterthoughts.
