Read customer reviewsResin bound driveways are popular across Taunton for low-maintenance frontages, new-build upgrades and smart parking conversions, but the surface is only as good as the base below. For a free written quotation, call 01823 729604 or WhatsApp photos to 07379 046388.
A great driveway starts underneath the surface: proper sub-base preparation, drainage and edge restraints before the finish goes down.

Local considerations in Taunton
The lasting difference is below and around the finish: the base must be stable, water needs a clear route and every edge must be properly restrained.
Taunton has everything from town-centre terraces to large new developments, so access, levels and existing surface condition vary a lot between jobs.
Permeable resin construction can be useful for front-garden parking, while some sites need designed falls and channels instead.
Overlay quotes are only sensible where the existing tarmac or concrete is sound and drainage can still be handled correctly.
Full installation or overlay?
Resin bound aggregate is hand-trowelled over a suitable base. We inspect the existing surface before explaining whether a shorter-cover overlay is sensible or a qualifying full installation is the better long-term specification.
Drainage and finishing details
UV-stable resin, anti-slip finish, retained edging, drainage channels and recessed covers are considered together and recorded in the written quote rather than treated as cosmetic extras.
Send photos for a quick steer
Photos of the current surface, drains, manhole covers, edges and access usually tell us whether the job is likely to be a full installation, overlay or repair-led quote.
Choose the right installation for your property
Full resin driveway installation
Where the existing surface or levels are not suitable, we excavate, remove waste, build a compacted sub-base and install a suitable binder course before the resin bound finish is laid.
Resin overlay where the base is genuinely sound
A resin overlay can be good value over stable concrete or tarmac, but only where cracks, movement, drainage and finished levels have been checked first.
Drainage, edging and recessed covers
Falls, ACO channels, solid edge restraints and recessed manhole covers are specified with the surface so the finished driveway works as well as it looks.
A permeable resin surface needs a suitable base and water route. Depending on the survey, the specification may use a permeable sub-base and concrete or tarmac base, or retain suitable existing concrete or tarmac for an overlay. An overlay does not make an impermeable base permeable: falls and drainage still need to be planned.
From survey to handover
- 1. Survey and agree the specification.
Check the existing base, dimensions, access, levels and drainage. Agree the finish and written quotation before work starts.
- 2. Prepare and install.
Carry out the agreed groundwork, base preparation, edging and drainage, then install the selected surface to its specification.
- 3. Protect and hand over.
Confirm when the surface can be used, taking account of the material and conditions, and explain cleaning and aftercare.
Qualifying full resin-bound installations can receive 10 years' workmanship cover. Resin overlays normally receive 3 years' cover for Quantock's preparation and application workmanship; the inherited base is not placed under guarantee. Read the workmanship terms and exclusions.
Resin driveway costs in Taunton

Resin Bound in Taunton - common questions
Do you install resin driveways on Taunton new-build estates?
Yes. New-build driveways often need upgrading from a basic finish, but we still check levels, edges and drainage rather than assuming the existing base is suitable.
Can resin bound handle a sloping Taunton driveway?
Usually, with the right specification. Grip, drainage and edge restraint are more important on slopes, and we will explain the options during the quote.
Will I get a written quotation?
Yes. The quotation should confirm the agreed specification, including preparation, drainage, edging, resin system and any guarantee terms that apply.
