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.

You hear bad things about dodgy workman and sub standard works. Fear not with this company. I researched thoroughly, got my facts straight and Kieran answered all the very difficult questions. Nothing was any trouble.

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.

The Simplest Way to Upgrade a Tarmac Surface

There is no need to rip out your tarmac driveway, path or patio. A resin bound overlay goes straight on top, converting a dull, worn surface into something you look forward to coming home to. Kent Resin Driveways has built a strong track record for tarmac overlay work, serving homeowners across Maidstone, Aylesford, Tonbridge, Loose, Sutton Valence and the wider county.

The concept is uncomplicated. Your existing tarmac remains in place as the load-bearing base. A hand-trowelled layer of natural stone aggregate in UV stable resin is applied on top. The transformation is instant, the cost is modest and most projects finish within a single working day.

Why an Overlay Makes Financial Sense

By retaining the tarmac, you eliminate excavation, waste disposal and new sub-base construction — the three most expensive elements of a conventional driveway build. Clients typically save 40 to 60 percent compared to a ground-up project.

Speed compounds the saving. An average driveway is overlaid in one day. Larger areas may extend to two. Foot traffic is safe by the evening; vehicles return the following morning. A full replacement, by comparison, can occupy a week or more.

The visual payoff is considerable. Choose from a broad spectrum of natural stone colours and blends. The finished surface is smooth, joint-free and completely resistant to weed growth. There are no loose chippings and no grout lines for moss to colonise.

Assessing Your Tarmac

The majority of tarmac surfaces are suitable. The key requirement is structural stability — the tarmac should not be sinking, fragmenting or shifting underfoot. Surface wear, hairline cracking and colour fade are all handled comfortably during preparation.

We provide a free inspection. We visit, assess the tarmac, identify any repairs needed and confirm whether an overlay is the right approach. If preparatory work is required, we carry it out before the resin goes down.

Drainage and Planning Compliance

Resin bound overlays are permeable. Rainwater passes through the aggregate, into the tarmac and down to the soil. Puddles are eliminated and the surface satisfies SUDS regulations. For front driveways exceeding five square metres, that permeability typically removes the need for a separate planning application.

Minimal Upkeep, Maximum Longevity

UV stable resin holds the aggregate colour without the fading that tarmac suffers. An annual jet wash is the only maintenance required. No weeding, no loose stone clearance, no repainting — just a clean, attractive surface year after year.

Resin Overlay on Tarmac FAQs

How can I tell if my tarmac is suitable for an overlay?

If it is stable and not breaking apart or sinking, it is usually suitable. We visit and inspect free of charge to confirm.

Does a resin overlay prevent weed growth?

Yes. The joint-free surface provides no gaps for weeds to exploit. The driveway stays weed-free.

Can paths and patios be overlaid as well as driveways?

Yes. We overlay tarmac paths, patios, steps and any other tarmac surface using the same proven process.

Will the resin colour hold up over time?

Our resin is UV stable and specifically formulated to resist fading. The colour remains consistent for many years.
