Resin Bound Driveways in Bolton and the surrounding area

Resin bound driveways are a popular choice around Bolton, and the reasons people give tend to be the same three. It lasts, it stays looking smart, and there is very little to do to keep it that way. It suits a path or a patio just as well as a drive. Most of the decision comes down to the stone, and there is a wide choice of it, from warm golds and bronzes through to greys and near-whites, or a blend picked to sit well against the house.

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.

  • A sound base prepared or laid to take the resin
  • Resin bound aggregate trowelled to a seamless finish

  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

We have spent over 20 years laying driveways and surfacing across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, and we run the business from Chorley Old Road. You are trusting us to dig up the front of your property, or to take a car park out of use for a few days, so it is worth knowing how we work. We look at the job properly before we price it, we build the base for the ground we actually find, and you get the same team from the first visit to the last sweep-up.

Bolton is where we are based, at 67 Chorley Old Road. From here we cover Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, so the BL1 postcodes are on the doorstep rather than a trip out. Harwood, Tottington, Summerseat, Ramsbottom and Horwich are all covered alongside the town itself.

  • Over 20 years’ experience

    Twenty years on, we are still laying driveways, patios and commercial surfaces across the North West, with a name built on quality workmanship and jobs left tidy.

  • A written, itemised quote

    You get the price in writing after we have been out to see the job, so there are no surprises once we start.

  • The base done properly

    Most surfaces fail from underneath, so we build the base for the ground we actually find rather than digging every job out to the same depth.

  • The same people throughout

    The team who price the job are the team who carry it out, so you are dealing with the same people from start to finish.

  • Domestic and commercial

    A single driveway and a full car park get the same treatment from us: we price them carefully and plan them before anyone turns up.

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.

Do you offer resin bound driveways near Harwood?

Yes. As well as Bolton itself we cover Harwood, Tottington, Summerseat, Ramsbottom, Horwich. Call 01204 684692 if you are not sure whether you are in range.
