Co. Wexford resin driveway questions
How much does a resin bound driveway cost in Wexford?
In Co. Wexford, an 18mm UV-stable resin bound overlay on sound tarmac or concrete costs €65 to €95 per m² (€3,250 to €4,750 for 50 m²), and a full permeable dig-out with Clause 804 sub-base and open-graded binder costs €95 to €140 per m² (€4,750 to €7,000 for 50 m², or €7,600 to €11,200 for 80 m²).
Can resin bound be laid over my existing driveway in Wexford?
Yes, if your existing tarmac or poured concrete slab is solid and free of deep subsidence. If you currently have block paving (cobblelock) or loose gravel, the installer lifts it and lays an open-graded tarmac binder course first so joints never crack through.
Does a resin bound driveway need planning permission in Wexford?
Under Class 6 of the Planning and Development Regulations, surfacing a front garden in Co. Wexford is exempt when you use a porous SuDS permeable resin bound system or drain rainwater within your own boundary. Widening entrance piers onto a public road requires permission from Wexford County Council.
