Resin Bound Driveways in Middleton and the surrounding area

Resin bound driveways have caught on in Middleton, and it is not hard to see why once one is finished. The surface is smooth and continuous, it takes a car standing on it every day, and it keeps its colour instead of fading out. The aggregate choice is wide, from warm bronzes and golds to greys and near-whites, and a blend of two stones is straightforward enough to lay.

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

Handing the front of your property to a contractor deserves a question or two first. We quote from a site visit, we build the base for the ground we actually find rather than to a set depth, and the team stays the same from first visit to last. Over 20 years of working that way across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, Middleton included.

We are based in Bolton and cover Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire. Middleton and the M24 postcodes sit well inside that and we are there regularly. Alkrington, Rhodes, Blackley, Chadderton and Moston are covered on the same basis as the town itself.

  • Over 20 years’ experience

    More than twenty years of driveways, patios and commercial surfacing across the North West, with the work and the tidiness why most jobs come by word of mouth.

  • A written, itemised quote

    The quote is written and itemised once we have seen the job, so the cost is agreed before anything starts.

  • The base done properly

    Most surfaces give way from underneath, so the base is sized for the ground we find and the loading it will carry.

  • The same people throughout

    The same team throughout, from pricing it to sweeping up after.

  • Domestic and commercial

    From one driveway to a commercial car park, costed and planned with equal care.

The price

What affects the price

Every Middleton quote follows a free site visit. Breaking out and carting away an old concrete drive is a real part of the cost, so it gets measured rather than guessed.

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.

Do you offer resin bound driveways near Alkrington?

Yes. As well as Middleton itself we cover Alkrington, Rhodes, Blackley, Chadderton, Moston. Call 0161 451 0824 if you are not sure whether you are in range.
