Give Your Patio the Surface It Deserves
A tarmac patio is functional but rarely attractive. It absorbs heat in summer, cracks through winter frost cycles, grows weeds along every edge and holds water after each rainfall. Converting to resin bound natural stone changes the experience entirely. Kent Resin Driveways carries out tarmac patio conversions for homeowners across Maidstone, Tonbridge, Bearsted, Staplehurst and the wider county.
The conversion is simple in practice. We apply resin bound aggregate directly over the existing tarmac. Nothing is dug up. Most patios are transformed in a single working day, with minimal disruption to the rest of your garden.
The Case for Conversion
Tarmac patios suffer from a familiar set of drawbacks. The dark surface retains heat uncomfortably in direct sun. Frost causes cracking. Every joint and fissure becomes a route for weed growth. The impervious surface sheds water rather than absorbing it, leaving puddles that take hours to clear and creating slip hazards.
Resin bound paving addresses every issue. Rainfall drains straight through the porous aggregate layer, so the patio is usable within minutes of a downpour — a genuine advantage given Kent's changeable climate. The joint-free surface prevents weed colonisation. UV stable resin locks in aggregate colour for years.
The natural stone palette offers genuine variety. Golden sandy tones, warm terracottas, neutral creams, cool silvers and dark graphites are all available. The effect is softer and more natural than tarmac could ever achieve.
An Outdoor Space You Will Want to Use
An inviting patio draws you outside. Homeowners in Yalding, Headcorn, Coxheath, Marden and across Kent regularly tell us they spend noticeably more time in their gardens after conversion. Add outdoor furniture, some container planting and low-level lighting and you have a genuine outdoor room.
Upkeep is negligible. There are no weeds to pull, no slabs to re-bed and no pointing to renew. A quick sweep and an occasional rinse keep the surface in excellent condition throughout the year.
Conversion Process
We inspect the tarmac first for stability and structural soundness. Damage is repaired and the surface is levelled where necessary. A pressure wash removes dirt, moss and organic debris.
A tack coat provides the bonding layer. The natural stone aggregate and UV stable resin are mixed on site and hand-trowelled across the patio, with careful detailing around planting beds, walls, steps and drainage points. The surface cures within hours. Furniture can be placed the following day.

Tarmac Patio Conversion FAQs
Is a one-day conversion realistic for most patios?
Yes. Standard-sized patios are completed in a single day. Larger or more complex layouts may require a second day.
Is the resin bound patio safe to walk on when wet?
Completely. The natural stone texture provides reliable grip, and rainfall drains through rather than sitting on the surface.
Can I use different stone colours to create zones?
Yes. We frequently use contrasting aggregate blends to define dining areas, borders or decorative patterns within a single patio.
Does the tarmac need to be perfectly flat?
Reasonably level is sufficient. We correct uneven spots during preparation. Gentle gradients that assist drainage are actually beneficial.
