Resin Bound Driveways in Stretford and the surrounding area

Around Stretford, resin bound is now one of the first finishes people look at for a driveway, a path or a patio. It is long lasting, it is easy on the eye, and it stays that way with very little attention. Where it differs from a plain surface is the stone in it. There is a broad range to choose from, warm bronzes and golds at one end, greys and near-whites at the other, and blends in between.

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

Stretford sits inside the patch we have covered for over 20 years, laying driveways and surfacing across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire. 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 you should know how we work before you commit to anything. We look at the job properly before we price it, we build the base for the ground we actually find, and you have the same team from the first visit to the last sweep-up.

We are a Bolton firm working across Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, and Stretford is well inside that. resin bound driveway work in the M32 postcodes is something we take on regularly, and the same goes for Little Bollington, Lostock Gralam, Kelsall, Halewood and Alvanley, which are covered from the same base.

  • Over 20 years’ experience

    We have spent two decades laying driveways, patios and commercial surfaces across the North West, and we have built our reputation on quality workmanship and tidy, reliable jobs.

  • A written, itemised quote

    We write the price down after the site visit and hand it to you, so the job starts with no surprises in it.

  • The base done properly

    Most surfaces fail from underneath. We build the base for the ground we actually find, rather than giving every job an identical dig-out.

  • The same people throughout

    From the quote to the last day on site, you deal with the same team.

  • Domestic and commercial

    We price and plan a single driveway the same careful way as a full car park, whatever the size of the job.

The price

What affects the price

Every Stretford job gets a free site visit before we quote it, so the price you are given fits the work we can see 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.
