Resin Overlay: The Smart Way to Upgrade Concrete
A resin overlay is a layer of resin bound aggregate applied directly on top of an existing concrete driveway. It is one of the most cost-effective ways to transform the look and performance of your driveway without starting from scratch. At Elite Resin Driveways Ltd, we install resin overlays on concrete driveways across Essex. The results speak for themselves.
We are based in Billericay and work throughout Chelmsford, Brentwood, Colchester, Basildon, Southend-on-Sea and the wider Essex area. If you have a concrete driveway that needs an upgrade, a resin overlay could be the answer.
How a Resin Overlay Works
A resin overlay uses your existing concrete driveway as the base. As long as the concrete is stable and in reasonable condition, it provides a perfect foundation for the resin bound layer. We clean and prepare the concrete, then trowel on a layer of resin bound aggregate, typically 15mm to 18mm thick.
The resin and stone mix bonds firmly to the concrete below. Once cured, you have a brand new surface that is smooth, strong and attractive. The overlay adds minimal height to the driveway, so it works well with existing levels, thresholds and edging.
Advantages of a Resin Overlay
There are several good reasons to choose a resin overlay for your concrete driveway:
- Permeable surface - water drains through, reducing puddles and flood risk
- Weed-free - no joints or gaps for weeds to grow through
- UV stable - colours stay true in all weather
- Low maintenance - just sweep or wash occasionally
- Quick installation - most overlays take one to two days
- Cost-effective - no need for demolition or disposal of the old concrete
A resin overlay is also SUDS compliant. The permeable surface lets rainwater pass through and soak into the ground naturally. This is particularly important for front driveways, where impermeable surfaces can require planning permission.
Preparing the Concrete for Overlay
Good preparation is the key to a successful overlay. We start by inspecting the concrete for cracks, movement and soft spots. Minor cracks are filled and repaired. We clean the surface to remove oil, dirt, paint and algae. If the concrete is very smooth, we apply a bonding primer to help the resin grip properly.
We also check the levels and falls. The existing drainage pattern needs to work with the new surface. In most cases, the concrete already has the right falls built in. If not, we can adjust levels with a levelling compound before applying the resin.

Resin Overlay on Concrete Driveways FAQs
Is a resin overlay suitable for all concrete driveways?
It works best on concrete that is stable and free from major cracks or movement. We inspect every driveway and let you know if overlay is the right option.
How thick is the resin overlay?
The resin bound layer is typically 15mm to 18mm thick. This adds very little height to the existing surface.
Will the overlay crack if the concrete underneath cracks?
If the concrete base moves, stress can transfer to the overlay. That is why we inspect and repair the concrete before application.
How long will a resin overlay last?
With proper preparation and installation, a resin overlay typically lasts 15 to 25 years.
