This company turned up on time and date when scheduled from survey to the day of completion. Kerian and his team were faultless at every stage of the project. The overall cost was very competitive and their performance was outstanding.

You hear bad things about dodgy workman and sub standard works. Fear not with this company. I researched thoroughly, got my facts straight and Kieran answered all the very difficult questions. Nothing was any trouble.

Kieron and his staff are superb. After having my driveway damaged by a delivery driver, he went far beyond my expectations. From start to finish it was a very professional job. My finished driveway is far better than my original one.

Lay Resin Directly Over Your Old Tarmac

Your tarmac driveway, path or patio does not need ripping up. A resin overlay goes straight on top and transforms the surface completely. At Elite Resin Driveways Ltd, we specialise in resin overlays on tarmac across Essex. From Billericay to Basildon, Chelmsford to Canvey Island, we help homeowners upgrade their outdoor spaces the easy way.

A resin overlay is exactly what it sounds like. We lay a layer of resin bound natural stone on top of your existing tarmac. The tarmac acts as the base. The resin gives you a beautiful, modern finish. It is the quickest route from a dull, worn surface to something you will be pleased to see every day.

The Advantages of a Resin Overlay

Cost is a big one. Using your tarmac as a base means no excavation, no waste removal and no new sub-base. You skip the most expensive parts of a driveway project. Most customers save 40 to 60 percent compared to a full driveway build.

Speed is another. A resin overlay on an average-sized driveway takes just one day. Larger areas may take two. You can walk on it the same evening and drive on it the next day. Compare that to a full excavation and rebuild, which can take a week or more.

The result looks fantastic. You pick from a wide range of natural stone colours and blends. The finish is smooth, seamless and completely weed-free. There are no loose stones to kick around and no grout lines for moss to grow in.

Is Your Tarmac Suitable?

Most tarmac surfaces are suitable for a resin overlay. The tarmac needs to be structurally stable. That means it should not be sinking, breaking apart or moving when you walk on it. Surface wear, minor cracking and fading are all fine. We deal with those as part of the preparation.

We offer a free inspection. We will visit your property, check the tarmac and let you know if it is ready for an overlay. If any repair work is needed, we handle that too before laying the resin.

Permeable and Planning-Friendly

Resin bound overlays are permeable. Rainwater drains through the resin, into the tarmac and into the ground below. This means no puddles on your driveway and no need for separate drainage. It also means the surface is SUDS compliant. Under current planning rules in Essex, paving over a front garden with a non-permeable material usually requires planning permission. With resin bound, you avoid that.

Low Maintenance, Long Lasting

A resin overlay needs very little upkeep. The UV-stable resin keeps its colour for years without fading. A jet wash once or twice a year is all it takes to keep the surface looking fresh. There are no weeds to pull and no loose stones to sweep up.

Resin Overlay on Tarmac FAQs

How do I know if my tarmac is suitable?

If your tarmac is stable and not sinking or breaking apart, it is usually suitable. We offer a free inspection to check and advise you.

Will the resin overlay stop weeds growing?

Yes. The seamless resin bound surface has no joints or gaps for weeds to push through. It stays weed-free.

Can you overlay tarmac paths as well as driveways?

Absolutely. We overlay tarmac paths, patios, steps and any other tarmac surface. The same process applies.

Does the resin colour fade over time?

Our resin is UV stable, which means it resists fading from sunlight. The colour stays true for many years.
