Your driveway does not have to be one flat colour. At Elite Resin Driveways Ltd, we create custom resin paving designs for homeowners across Essex. From sweeping borders and geometric patterns to personalised motifs and colour blends, we can make your driveway, patio, or path genuinely unique.
What Is Custom Resin Paving?
Custom resin paving takes the same high-quality resin bound materials we use on all our projects and applies them with a creative eye. Instead of laying a single colour across the whole area, we use different aggregates and colours to create patterns, borders, and design features within the surface.
This could be as simple as a contrasting border around the edge of your driveway. Or it could be as detailed as a compass rose set into a patio, a house number worked into a front path, or sweeping curves that follow the shape of your flower beds. The resin bound system is flexible enough to accommodate almost any design.
Design Ideas for Essex Homes
Every home is different, and we work with you to create a design that suits your property and your taste. Here are some of the most popular options we install across Chelmsford, Brentwood, Billericay, and the wider Essex area.
Borders are the most common custom feature. A contrasting colour around the edge of your driveway frames the surface and gives it a finished, professional look. Dark borders around lighter aggregates are a classic choice. Light borders around darker surfaces create a modern, bold effect.
Two-tone designs divide the driveway into sections using different colours. This can define parking spaces, create a central feature strip, or simply add visual interest. Many homeowners in Colchester and Basildon choose a two-tone design to break up larger driveway areas.
Circular features work well on wide driveways and turning areas. A circle of contrasting aggregate in the centre of the drive creates a striking focal point that catches the eye as you approach the property.
Pattern work — including geometric shapes, curves, and bespoke motifs — is possible for those who want something truly individual. We use metal dividing strips to separate colours cleanly, creating sharp lines and precise shapes.
The Design Process
It all starts with a conversation. We visit your home, look at the space, and listen to your ideas. Maybe you have seen something you like online. Maybe you have a colour scheme in mind. Or maybe you want our advice on what would look good with your property. We are happy to help at any stage.
We then put together a design plan. For simpler designs, we sketch out the layout on site and agree the colours and proportions with you. For more involved projects, we may create a scaled drawing so you can see exactly how the finished result will look.
We bring aggregate samples to your home so you can see the actual colours and textures in your own light and against your own brickwork. Colours can look different in photographs, so seeing them in person is important.
Expert Installation
Custom designs need skilled hands. The resin and different aggregates are mixed separately and applied in sections, with metal dividers between each colour to keep the lines clean. This requires patience and experience. Our team has installed many custom designs across Southend-on-Sea, Chelmsford, and all over Essex, and they take great pride in getting the details right.
The installation follows the same quality standards as all our work. The base is prepared thoroughly, edging is installed, and the resin bound surface is trowelled by hand to a smooth, even finish. Every section is checked for level and consistency before the next one is started.
Same Quality, More Character
A custom design uses the same materials as a standard resin bound installation. That means you still get all the performance benefits — permeable, SUDS compliant, weed-free, UV stable, low maintenance, and eco-friendly. The only difference is that your surface has more character and personality.
The UV stable resins we use mean your design will hold its colours for years. The contrasts you see on installation day will still be visible a decade later. This is not paint or dye that fades. It is natural stone that keeps its colour naturally.
Add Value and Personality to Your Home
A custom driveway sets your property apart. It shows attention to detail and personal style. Whether you are staying in your home for years to come or preparing it for sale, a bespoke resin design makes a strong impression.
In a county like Essex where homes sit close together and driveways are visible from the street, standing out in a tasteful way adds real appeal. Our custom designs are always elegant and well-executed — never overdone.

Custom Resin Paving Design FAQs
How much more does a custom design cost?
Custom designs cost more than a single-colour installation because they take longer and use multiple aggregates. The exact price depends on the complexity of the design. We provide a clear quote upfront so there are no surprises.
Can I see colour samples before deciding?
Yes. We bring physical aggregate samples to your home so you can see the actual colours against your property in natural light. This is the best way to make colour decisions.
How detailed can the design be?
We can create borders, multi-colour sections, geometric patterns, and bespoke motifs. Very fine detail has practical limits due to the nature of the aggregate, but we can achieve a wide range of designs. We will advise on what is realistic during the consultation.
Will the pattern colours fade over time?
No. We use UV stable resins and natural stone aggregates that hold their colour for many years. The contrast between different sections of your design will remain visible for the life of the surface.
