Initial Assessment and Planning

A reputable contractor will conduct a thorough site assessment before providing a quote. This helps identify any potential issues and ensures accurate pricing.

Discuss the driveway project timeline with potential contractors. Understanding the duration of the installation process enables you to plan accordingly.

Ask to see resin driveway samples to understand colour options better and finish. This is also an opportunity to discuss aggregate options.


Technical Considerations

Enquire about the resin thickness they recommend. This factor significantly impacts the durability of your driveway.

Ensure the contractor uses materials that create a frost-resistant driveway, which is especially important in colder climates.

Ask about their methods for creating a weed-resistant surface, which is crucial for maintaining the appearance of your driveway.


Legal and Regulatory Aspects

  1. Resin Driveway Regulations

Confirm that the contractor is familiar with local resin driveway regulations and can ensure your installation complies with them.

Discuss whether planning permission is required for your project and if the contractor can assist with this process.

  3. Contractor Insurance

Verify that the contractor has appropriate insurance to protect you and your property during the installation.
