Resin Bound Driveways in Chorley and the surrounding area

Plenty of people in Chorley now pick resin bound when the drive, the path or the patio is due for replacing, and it is the hard-wearing finish that wins them over. It takes the weight of a car and daily foot traffic without breaking up, it keeps its colour, and looking after it is mostly a matter of sweeping it. The aggregate is where the character comes from: bronzes, golds, greys and near-whites, on their own or blended together.

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 seamless 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

You are trusting someone 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 before you decide. We have been laying driveways and surfacing for over 20 years across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, and Chorley is well within our patch. We look at the job 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.

Our base is in Bolton, and from there we work across Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire. Chorley sits on the Lancashire side of that, and the PR7 postcodes are somewhere we are back at regularly. Coppull, Coppull Moor, Appley Bridge, Bryn Gates and Hindley are covered too, so resin bound driveway work in the villages is no different to a job in the town.

  • Over 20 years’ experience

    We have been laying driveways, patios and commercial surfaces across the North West for twenty years, and our reputation rests on quality workmanship and reliable, tidy jobs.

  • A written, itemised quote

    We visit the site, then put the price in writing. You know what the job costs before it starts, and nothing lands on you later.

  • The base done properly

    Most surfaces fail from underneath, which is why we build the base for the ground we find instead of giving every job the same dig-out.

  • The same people throughout

    You deal with the same team right through, from the quote to the day the job finishes.

  • Domestic and commercial

    We treat a single driveway and a full car park the same way, pricing and planning both with the same care.

The price

What affects the price

Before we price anything in Chorley we come out and look, and the site visit is free. That way the quote fits the work in front of us rather than a guess off 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.

Yes. As well as Chorley itself we cover Coppull, Coppull Moor, Appley Bridge, Bryn Gates, Hindley. Call 01257 491086 if you are not sure whether you are in range.
