Permeable Upgrade
No more puddles after heavy rain, a firm slip-resistant surface that looks new and drains water even on clay soils.
What We Do
Covering site survey, tarmac removal or overlay, MOT Type 1 sub-base compaction, and UV-stable resin-bound surface installation.
Excavate tarmac; compact MOT Type 1 base; lay UV-stable resin.
Prime tarmac, bond resin overlay, finish with non-slip aggregate.
Why Rayleigh Resin Driveways
Incorrect base or poor bonding on clay soils leads to ponding, delamination, and premature cracking if conversion is done without proper preparation.
Cracked tarmac holds water and oil, causing potholes and surface failure. Clay soils make base movement worse.
Resin can fail to bond on oily or friable tarmac; a survey and primer check decide overlay or removal.
Oil stains and UV fade make tarmac look tired; resin overlay removes stains and locks in colour.
Resin-bound surface with graded aggregate drains 600mm/hr reliably, preventing ponding on clay soils.
MOT Type 1 sub-base compacted to 95% density prevents frost heave and reduces risk of resin cracking on clay.
Who We Help
Owners of village homes on clay soils needing a permeable, low-maintenance driveway that reduces ponding and weed growth.
Developers needing SUDS-compliant, fast-turnaround surfacing with clear itemised quotes for site handovers.
Landlords seeking durable, weed-free driveways that cut tenant complaints and long-term upkeep costs.
How We Work
A clear three-step process from site survey to installation and post-install checks.
Site assessment
An installer visits to inspect tarmac condition, oil staining, and surface movement, and to record drainage needs on clay soils before quoting.
Specify works
We itemise excavation or overlay, MOT Type 1 base requirements, resin specification and colour, plus any drainage or edging works.
Install & check
Excavate or prepare the tarmac, compact the base, lay resin-bound surface, then test drainage and complete a post-install check.
Frequently Asked Questions
Practical guidance on overlay suitability, timings, risks, and local planning.
