Shirley homeowners want outdoor surfaces that look smart year-round and cope with British weather. Our resin bound installations suit everything from front driveways to garden paths near Shirley Windmill and routes up towards Addington Hills. The finish is smooth underfoot, highly durable, and designed to drain naturally. It’s a practical upgrade that also lifts kerb appeal on CR0 streets.
We work across the resin bound surfaces Shirley area, including Addiscombe, Addington and West Wickham. Shirley’s mix of 1930s semis, larger detached homes and newer developments often comes with sloping drives, shared access, and tight side passages. We tailor edging, falls and drainage details to match each plot and parking layout. The result is a neat, consistent surface that complements brickwork, render and modern façades alike.
Fine Landscaping handles the full process: site survey, base preparation, edging, mixing and laying to a clean, even finish. Our system is SuDS compliant, UV stable and low maintenance, with a wide colour range to match your property. We back our workmanship with a 15 year guarantee for added peace of mind. Many clients choose us for clear communication, tidy working practices and reliable scheduling.
Across the London Borough of Croydon, we often see variable sub-bases, tree roots and mixed ground levels, especially near parks and older streets. In Shirley, access can be tight on 1930s driveways, so we plan deliveries, mixing and parking to minimise disruption. We also set the correct falls and edging to suit local rain run-off and driveway gradients. If a dropped kerb or boundary detail is involved, we’ll advise on the practical steps before work starts.

Costs in Shirley typically range from around £80–£140 per m², depending on the area size, existing surface, and how much base preparation is required. Replacing a failed tarmac or concrete base, adding new edging, or correcting levels can increase the price. For larger driveways, the rate per m² can reduce. We provide a clear, itemised quote after a site visit in CR0.
Most resin bound driveways take 2–5 days from preparation to completion, with the resin layer usually laid in a single day once the base is ready. Smaller paths and patios can often be completed in 1–2 days. Timescales depend on access, weather, curing conditions, and whether we’re building a new permeable base. We’ll confirm a schedule before starting.
In many cases, a resin bound driveway is permitted development, especially when it’s a permeable, SuDS compliant surface that allows water to drain through. However, rules can differ for listed buildings, certain front garden works, or where changes affect highways (such as dropped kerbs). We’ll flag any likely permissions and help you check Croydon requirements before installation.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our resin bound installations, covering workmanship-related issues such as cracking caused by installation faults, delamination, or premature failure under normal residential use. The warranty depends on correct base construction and appropriate use (for example, avoiding heavy commercial vehicles if not specified). We’ll explain what’s covered in writing, along with care guidance to keep the surface performing well.
You can choose from a wide colour range, from warm golden aggregates to contemporary greys and charcoal blends. Popular options include contrasting borders, soldier edging, and feature bands to frame parking bays or pathways. We’ll help you select a blend that suits your brick colour, paving, and garden style, and we can provide samples so you can view tones in natural daylight before deciding.
