Resin Bound Driveways in Ashton-under-Lyne and the surrounding area

Resin bound is one of the most asked-for finishes in Ashton-under-Lyne, and it works equally well on paths and patios. It is durable, it keeps its appearance year on year, and it asks very little of you once it is down. The look is yours to decide. The aggregate runs from warm bronzes and golds through to greys and near-whites, and two colours can be blended where one will not suit.

Resin bound is small stone mixed with a high-strength resin and laid as one continuous surface. We lay resin bound driveways over a properly prepared base, trowel to a smooth finish, leaving a fully permeable surface, so rain drains through it rather than running off towards the house. There are no joints for weeds to come up through and no loose stone to scatter. It takes daily car use and foot traffic, and where the base underneath is sound it can sometimes be laid over the top, which keeps the cost down.

What’s included

  • A sound base prepared or laid to take the resin
  • Resin bound aggregate trowelled to a smooth, continuous finish
  • A permeable surface with no loose stone
  • Edgings and detailing around the perimeter
  • A choice of aggregate colour chosen at quote stage

How we do it

  1. 01

    Assess the base

    Resin needs a sound base. We check whether your existing surface can be used or whether it needs laying first.

  2. 02

    Prepare and prime

    We prepare the base, deal with any edges and falls, and prime ready for the resin.

  3. 03

    Mix and trowel

    We mix the resin and aggregate on site and trowel it to a smooth, even, permeable finish.

Why us

Why choose THB Contractors

It is reasonable to ask how a contractor works before they dig up your frontage. We price from a proper look at the job, we build the base for the ground that is actually there, and the people who quote are the people who lay it. That is how it has been for over 20 years across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, Ashton-under-Lyne with it.

Our base is in Bolton and we work across Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire. Ashton-under-Lyne and the OL6, OL7 and SK16 postcodes are regular ground for us. Dukinfield, Droylsden, Audenshaw, Stalybridge and Mossley are covered on the same basis.

  • Over 20 years’ experience

    Twenty years and more laying driveways, patios and commercial surfaces across the North West, with a reputation for solid workmanship and clean sites.

  • A written, itemised quote

    You get the cost in writing after we have been out, itemised, so nothing shifts once we begin.

  • The base done properly

    The base is where it starts to go wrong, so we build it for the ground we meet rather than a standard dig-out.

  • The same people throughout

    One team from the quote through to the finish, with nobody handed on.

  • Domestic and commercial

    Driveways and commercial surfacing both, planned and priced the same careful way.

The price

What affects the price

A free site visit comes before every Ashton-under-Lyne quote. Gradient changes how the work has to be done, and it is not something to price from a description.

The main things that move the figure:

  • Whether a new base is needed or an existing one can be used
  • The area and the aggregate chosen
  • Edge detailing and falls
  • Access for mixing and materials

Common questions

Is resin bound permeable?

Yes. Resin bound is laid over a permeable base so surface water soaks through rather than running off, which usually avoids the need for extra works.

Does resin fade or go loose?

Resin bound is a fixed, trowelled surface, so there is no loose stone. A quality UV-stable resin holds its colour; we go through the options at the visit.

Can resin be laid over my existing driveway?

Only where the surface underneath is sound and well drained. Where it is not, we prepare or replace the base first — laying resin over a failing base is a false economy.
