Attractive, Durable Driveways for Cheltenham & Gloucester Properties
If you’re looking to upgrade your driveway with something modern, stylish, and low maintenance, resin driveways are an ideal choice. At B J Surfacing, we specialise in installing high-quality resin surfaces across Cheltenham, Gloucester, and the surrounding areas. With over 40 years of combined experience in the surfacing industry, we’re proud to offer a resin installation service that blends visual appeal with long-term durability.
Our medium-sized, family-run business completes all work in-house – never using subcontractors. From start to finish, you can trust that your new driveway is being installed by a trained and experienced team committed to top-level results. Whether you’re interested in the decorative finishes or the practical benefits of a permeable resin surface, our paving contractors are here to help.
We also offer our residential and commercial clients a further choice of block paving, tarmac driveways, and local council-approved dropped kerbs.
Resin-Bound Driveways Explained
A resin-bound driveway is a surface made by mixing natural aggregates (like stone or gravel) with a transparent UV-stable resin and spreading it evenly over a solid base. The result is a smooth, durable surface that allows water to drain easily, reducing the risk of pooling or flooding.
Our resin surfaces provide a clean, modern appearance and require very little upkeep. They’re ideal for residential and commercial driveways and can be installed in various colours, patterns, and finishes.
Why Choose a Resin Driveway?
A low-maintenance driveway shouldn’t have to compromise on looks, and with resin, it doesn’t. These surfaces are not only practical but also highly customisable. Whether you want a warm, traditional finish or something bold and contemporary, we can perfectly match your property’s aesthetic.
The benefits of our resin driveways include:
- Eco-Friendly: SUDS-compliant for better water management
- Crack-Resistant: thanks to the flexible nature of the resin
- UV-Stable: the surface won’t fade or discolour over time
- Low Maintenance: resistant to weeds and moss growth
- Smooth & Accessible: perfect for wheelchair and pushchair use
- Non-Slip: ideal for driveways, ramps, and access points
- Permeable: helping with surface water management
- Long-Lasting: with proper installation and maintenance
- Fast Installation: typically completed within 2–3 days
- Customisable: with a range of colours and aggregate blends available
We’re proud to be one of the most trusted names for resin driveway installations in the Cheltenham and Gloucester areas. Our process begins with a thorough site survey to assess the base layer and drainage, followed by any required groundworks to prepare the site.
We use powerful, well-maintained equipment and only premium-grade resin and aggregates to ensure your new permeable resin surface is installed to the highest standard. Our in-house team completes all projects with attention to detail every step of the way.
Resin Driveway Styles & Finishes
Customisation is one of the biggest advantages of choosing resin. B J Surfacing offers a variety of natural aggregate colours, from golden tones to slate greys and soft whites. Whether you’re aiming for a traditional look or something more modern, we can recommend finishes to suit your property’s character.
We can also install resin surfaces with decorative borders, contrasting bands, or even bespoke patterns if you want to make a real statement and make your Cheltenham or Gloucester property really stand out.
How long will a resin driveway last?
With proper installation and occasional maintenance, a resin-bound driveway can last 15–20 years or more. We also offer a 5-year guarantee on all our completed projects.
Do I need planning permission?
In most cases, no. Because it’s a permeable resin surface, it usually meets SUDS (Sustainable Urban Drainage System) regulations and doesn’t require planning permission. We’ll confirm this during your site survey.
Can resin be laid over an existing driveway?
Yes, provided the current surface is solid and in good condition. If not, we’ll carry out the necessary groundworks or recommend a new base layer to ensure longevity.
What maintenance is required?
Very little! Occasionally, sweeping leaves or debris away is usually enough. If needed, a gentle wash with water will keep the surface looking great year-round.
