Smooth, porous and finished with a block border
A resin driveway is natural stone mixed with clear resin and trowelled smooth. It gives the look of gravel without loose stones being kicked onto the lawn or carried into the house, and it comes in a wide range of stone colours from buff and golden to silver and charcoal.
We lay both types. Resin bound is mixed and trowelled to a smooth, porous surface that lets rainwater drain through. Resin bonded is resin spread on the base with stone scattered over it, for a textured, gravel-like finish. We talk you through both at the design visit.
Resin needs a sound, stable base, so we either build a new one or check that the existing tarmac or concrete is fit to take it. Drives are framed with a block border or edging, which keeps the resin edge crisp and lets us mix materials, such as a red line border or a charcoal frame round a buff drive.

Resin driveway
Patrick and his team were helpful, worked hard, and completed our new resin drive to a high standard.Read it on Checkatrade

New patio
We recently had our driveway done by Unique Driveways and Patios and couldn’t be happier. We dealt directly with Paddy, who was very helpful in suggesting ideas and making the planning process straightforward. We were able to get the work started quickly, and the team showed up on time every day, ready to go. They were friendly and worked incredibly hard, managing to complete a fairly large driveway in just three days. The finished job looks fantastic, and it’s reassuring to know it comes with a 10-year warranty. Would definitely recommend.Read it on Google

Tarmac drive
The team have just finished our new driveway. We chose tarmac with a brick edging. From the initial quote to completed job everyone was so helpful and with years of experience, gave advice we both felt we could trust. They were all so approachable, easy to talk to and happy to explain even the smallest details. They managed to keep everything so clean and tidy throughout the job, amazing! The finished job looks brilliant, exactly what we wanted. Thank youRead it on Google

Tarmac driveway
Great team. Nothing was too much trouble and were really professional, friendly and superb to deal with. They took out trees and bushes we wanted to retain, were tidy and we couldn't fault them. The drive looks really impressive and their work is guaranteed for 10 years. Our thanks to Pat, Charles, the two Ricks and Mick. Helen & PaulRead it on Checkatrade

Indian sandstone patio
Pat and the team have just finished our driveway and patio - they managed to transform our large front gravel driveway, side passage/walkway and large back patio in Indian sandstone - and turned the whole thing around in just 4 days. Amazed by the speed but also the strong attention to detail. The lads were all lovely too. We're really pleased with the finish and they communicated really well throughout. Thanks to the whole team!Read it on Google

New patio
From first meeting Pat I was confident that he listened to my requirements and that his company could deliver the patio I wanted in what was a difficult location due to sloping ground and limited access. Charlie and the team arrived as promised working extremely hard to complete the job exactly to my specifications I have no hesitation in recommending the company and the workers to anyone. They kept me informed and were a pleasure to deal withRead it on Google
Before you book
Straight answers about resin driveways
Resin bound or resin bonded: which is better?
Resin bound is smooth and porous, and it is the one most homeowners pick for driveways. Resin bonded gives a textured, gravel-like grip. We show you both.
Can resin go over my existing drive?
Sometimes. If the existing tarmac or concrete is sound and level it can be used as the base. If not, we dig out and lay a new one.
Does a resin drive need planning permission?
Resin bound is porous, which helps it meet the rules on draining front gardens. We talk through drainage on every quote.
How long before I can drive on it?
Resin needs time to cure. We tell you exactly when it is ready to walk on and drive on before we leave.
Is resin guaranteed?
Yes. All our work, resin included, carries a 10-year guarantee.
