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.

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.

Really pleased with our BBQ area, so glad we went for resin. Service provided was superb, highly recommend this company, delighted with the finish and result.

Tarmac remains one of the most reliable base materials in the driveway industry, and we work with it daily. Kent Resin Driveways lays new asphalt bases as part of full driveway builds and transforms worn-out tarmac drives into striking resin bound surfaces. If your old asphalt is past its best, we offer a practical, cost-effective route to a brand-new look.

Across Marden, Staplehurst, Paddock Wood, and the wider Kent area, countless homes still sit behind ageing tarmac driveways. Faded colour, surface cracks, and weed growth along the edges are the telltale signs. We assess the condition for free and let you know whether an overlay or a full rebuild is the right call.

The Tarmac and Resin Partnership

Asphalt gives you a tough, flexible base. Resin bound surfacing adds colour, texture, and a premium finish. Combine the two and you get a driveway that handles heavy use, drains properly, and looks outstanding year after year. That combination is the foundation of a large proportion of our work across Kent.

Transforming Tired Tarmac Driveways

A tarmac driveway that was laid ten or fifteen years ago has taken a lot of punishment. Winters in Kent bring relentless rain and regular frost. Summers bring UV exposure that bleaches the surface and softens the binder. The result is a driveway that has gone from smart black to patchy grey, often with a network of cracks and a border of weeds.

If the underlying structure is still intact, overlaying with resin bound surfacing is the smartest option. You skip the expense and upheaval of a full dig-out while ending up with a surface that outperforms the original tarmac in every way.

Our Tarmac Assessment Process

During our free site visit we check three things. First, is the tarmac still structurally sound, with no areas that have sunk or broken apart? Second, are the drainage levels adequate? Third, will the additional resin layer sit at a sensible height relative to your doorstep, garage, and boundary edges? If all three check out, we proceed with the overlay. If not, we explain exactly what remedial work is needed.

Laying Fresh Asphalt for New Builds

When we install a completely new driveway, tarmac is often our preferred base material. It bonds extremely well with resin, it is machine-rolled for a consistent finish, and it has a natural flexibility that accommodates the slight ground movement you get on Kent clay soils, particularly around Hunton, Yalding, and East Farleigh.

We manage the whole sequence ourselves: excavation, sub-base compaction, asphalt laying, curing, and then the resin bound top coat. One team, one schedule, no coordination headaches for you.

Choosing Between Tarmac and Concrete

Both materials do an excellent job as a resin base. Tarmac is faster to lay and has built-in flexibility, making it our go-to choice on clay ground. Concrete offers greater rigidity and can be the better pick on stable, well-drained sites. We discuss the options during your consultation and recommend whatever suits your property best.

Protecting Against Kent's Climate

Left exposed, asphalt driveways deteriorate steadily under Kent weather. A resin bound overlay shields the tarmac from UV rays, frost penetration, and standing water. The permeable resin surface also meets SUDS standards, meaning rainwater filters through instead of pooling or running off into the road. Homeowners in flood-aware areas near Tonbridge and Aylesford value this feature highly.

Why Choose Resin Bound Surfaces?

Durable, attractive, and low maintenance surfaces for your home or business.

Colour That Holds Fast

UV-stable resin locks in your chosen shade so the surface looks as vibrant in year ten as it did on day one — even in full sun.

Natural Drainage Built In

Rainwater filters straight through the surface into the ground below. No puddles, no ice patches, and full SUDS compliance as standard.

Wide Range of Stone Shades

Choose from dozens of natural aggregate colours and blends. Match your brickwork, complement your garden, or create a standout contrast.

No Weeds, No Loose Stones

The continuous bonded finish leaves no joints for weeds to exploit and no gravel to scatter across your lawn or pavement.

Almost Zero Maintenance

An occasional hose-down and a sweep with a stiff brush is all it takes. No re-sealing, no jet washing, and no re-sanding joints.

A Greener Choice

Resin bound paving generates a fraction of the carbon footprint of poured concrete and actively supports sustainable drainage in your neighbourhood.

Common Questions Answered

What condition does my tarmac need to be in for a resin overlay?

The tarmac should be structurally solid with no major sinking or crumbling. Surface wear, minor cracks, and colour fading are all fine. We inspect the driveway during our free visit and give you an honest verdict.

What makes tarmac a good substrate for resin bound surfacing?

Tarmac provides a strong, smooth base that bonds securely with resin. Its slight flexibility is an advantage on clay soils because it absorbs minor ground movement without cracking. It is also quicker to lay than concrete, which can speed up the overall project timeline.

How many days does a tarmac-to-resin overlay project take?

Most overlays are completed in one to two days depending on the driveway size. If the existing tarmac needs removing and a new base is required, add an extra day or so for the base work and curing.

Does the resin overlay protect the tarmac underneath?

Yes. The resin layer shields the asphalt from ultraviolet light, rain, and frost. This slows further degradation of the base and extends the overall lifespan of the driveway. However, any existing structural damage should be addressed before the overlay is applied.

How does the cost of an overlay compare to a complete driveway rebuild?

An overlay is typically more affordable because it removes the need for excavation, waste disposal, and new base materials. The exact saving varies with each project, but it is a meaningful difference for most homeowners.
