Resin Bound Driveways in Urmston and the surrounding area

Resin bound surfacing is a popular pick in Urmston for driveways, and the same material goes down just as well on a path or a patio. It is hard-wearing, it looks smart, and keeping it that way takes little more than the occasional sweep. The aggregate decides the character of the finish, and there is plenty of it to choose from: warm bronzes and golds, greys and near-whites, or a mix of two to suit 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.

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 handing someone the front of your property to dig up, or a car park to take out of use for a few days, so it is worth knowing how we work before you decide. We have been doing this for over 20 years across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, and Urmston is part of that. We look at the job before we price it, we build the base for the ground we actually find, and you see the same team from the first visit to the last sweep-up.

Urmston is one of the towns we cover regularly, and the M41 postcodes with it. We are based in Bolton and work out across Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, which brings Heatley, Higher Whitley, Anderton, Bate Heath and Arley into the same area as the town itself.

  • Over 20 years’ experience

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

  • A written, itemised quote

    We give you the price in writing after we have visited the site, so nothing unexpected turns up once the work begins.

  • The base done properly

    Most surfaces fail from underneath, so we build the base around the ground we find on your job instead of one standard dig-out.

  • The same people throughout

    You deal with the same team from the quote right through to the day the job is finished.

  • Domestic and commercial

    We take on single driveways and full car parks alike, and we price and plan both with the same care.

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 Heatley?

Yes. As well as Urmston itself we cover Heatley, Higher Whitley, Anderton, Bate Heath, Arley. Call 0161 451 0824 if you are not sure whether you are in range.
