Featured review

"These guys did a great job for us. We had a terrible problem with moss that was dug into our tarmac driveway. They completely removed it with a very fancy machine and then put a resin layer on top. It looked like it had just been laid. Absolutely great job plus all done immediately and on budget. I would happily recommend them to other people."

Tarmac restoration + resin overlay · Google Business Profile

"Josh and his team did an excellent job of laying resin on my drive, they also did a terrace of resin in my garden and built new steps and part resin the patio area. They are returning to replace fence panels, lay a new patio and returf the garden. Nothing is too much trouble genuinely nice guys and very competitive prices."

"Joshua Ed & Josh did our driveway and we couldn't be happier. The standard of work is 5★ — also the communication throughout was what you would expect from a family run firm. I will always have no problem in recommending your firm and the comments we've had from the neighbours is how quick you guys done the job and the standard of work is amazing."

Ricky Carl Elliott

Driveway installation

"Josh and his Team have just installed a Resin Drive to my property and their standard of work was excellent and communication skills also excellent. Once they started work they continued until work finished and didn't go from job to job which is what I liked the most. I would recommend Josh and his Team and I will be using them again for further work."

Questions

Frequently Asked

Common questions we hear at quotes across Bristol, Gloucester and the South West.

Do you offer free quotes in Bristol, Gloucester and the South West?

Yes — every quote is free, fixed-price and written. We visit your property, measure up properly and give you an exact price with no obligation. We don't take deposits and we don't charge for call-outs.

How long does a typical driveway installation take?

Most driveways take 3–7 working days from start to finish depending on the size and surface type. Block paving and tarmac are usually quickest; resin bound is laid in a single day once the base is ready. We give you a day-by-day plan before work begins.

Do you take a deposit before starting work?

No — we never ask for a deposit. You pay when the work is completed to your satisfaction. It's one of the reasons our Bark.com and MyBuilder reviews are consistently 5-star.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. We hold full public liability insurance and employer's liability insurance. Certificates are available on request and we'll bring proof to your free site visit.

What areas do you cover?

We cover Bristol, Gloucester, Cardiff, Newport, Cheltenham, Bath, Swindon, Stroud, Tewkesbury, Chippenham, Bridgend, Barry, Caerphilly, Pontypridd, Monmouth, Weston-super-Mare and 21 further towns across the South West, Midlands and South Wales. If you're unsure, call us — we travel further for larger jobs.

How long does a resin bound driveway last?

A professionally installed resin bound driveway lasts 15–25 years with minimal maintenance. The key is the sub-base — we always prepare a 150mm compacted Type 1 MOT base under any resin system, which is the difference between a drive that lasts two decades and one that cracks in two years.

Do I need planning permission for a new driveway?

In most cases no, provided you use a permeable surface (resin bound, open-jointed block paving, or gravel) or route rainwater to a soakaway on your property. Impermeable surfaces over 5 square metres do need planning permission. We advise on this for every site — including Conservation Area rules in Bath, Cheltenham, Clifton and central Cardiff.

Can you handle the dropped kerb application with the council?

Yes — for Bristol, Gloucestershire, South Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, Bath & NE Somerset, Cardiff, Newport and the other South Wales councils we regularly submit and manage dropped kerb applications on your behalf. We include this in the quote when needed.
