A resin driveway is a clean, contemporary upgrade that still complements Forest Hill’s character. We install seamless, weed-resistant surfaces that cope with daily parking and changing weather. Whether you’re near Forest Hill station or walking distance to the Horniman Museum, we’ll design a finish that suits your frontage. Expect a tidy site, clear timelines, and a driveway that lifts the whole property.
Forest Hill homeowners often have Victorian and Edwardian houses, plus period conversions with compact front gardens and shared access. We’re used to working with sloping approaches, narrow gates, and stepped thresholds common around SE23. If you’re in Sydenham, Honor Oak or Dulwich, we can match the resin tone to brickwork, tiles, and boundary walls. The result is a driveway that feels original to the home, not bolted on.
We start with a site visit to check levels, drainage, and the condition of the existing base. Our team prepares the sub-base properly, installs edging where needed, then lays the chosen resin system to a consistent depth. We protect paths and planting, keep disruption low, and leave the area clean at handover. Every installation is backed by our 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
We know the access and parking challenges typical across the London Borough of Lewisham, especially on residential streets around SE23. Many properties have short frontages, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also account for local gradients and drainage needs, particularly where drives fall towards the house. Our resin driveways Forest Hill area installations are designed to be practical, compliant, and attractive.

For resin driveways in Forest Hill, most homeowners budget around £60–£100 per square metre, depending on the system, base preparation and edging details. Typical project totals often fall between £2,400 and £5,000 for standard front drive sizes in SE23. Costs can rise for excavation, new sub-bases, complex levels, steps, or premium aggregate blends and borders.
Most resin driveway installations take 2–3 days, assuming the base is suitable and weather conditions are stable. Day one is usually preparation and base works; the resin layer is laid once levels and drainage are correct. Larger driveways, significant excavation, or curing delays in cold or wet weather can extend the schedule. We’ll confirm a realistic programme after the site survey.
In many cases, a new or replacement driveway is permitted development, particularly when using permeable surfaces such as resin bound systems that allow water to drain through. However, rules can vary with conservation areas, listed buildings, and changes to access or dropped kerbs. We’ll advise on the practical requirements and help you check any Lewisham-specific constraints before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our resin driveway installations, covering workmanship and installation-related defects under normal domestic use. This includes issues such as lifting, cracking linked to poor preparation, or failure of the laid surface due to installation faults. The warranty doesn’t cover impact damage, oil/chemical spills left untreated, or problems caused by an unstable existing base we’ve advised against.
We offer resin bound driveways (permeable, smooth), resin bonded surfaces (textured, high-grip), and resin overlay systems for suitable existing bases. Popular design choices include charcoal and silver blends, warm golden tones, and contrasting borders to frame parking bays. We can also create driveway extensions, plus matching resin patios and pathways for a unified look. We’ll bring samples and guide you on colour matching and practicality.
