New Build Driveways
New build driveway ready before handover — NHBC groundworks, developer coordination, and permeable resin that drains properly from day one.
What We Do
Covering NHBC-compliant groundworks, bulk earthworks, drainage integration, resin-bound surface application, and developer coordination across construction timeline
New Build Groundworks
150mm MOT Type 1 sub-base with bulk earthworks and drainage integration
Developer Coordination
Timeline management with NHBC compliance verification and trade scheduling
Why Chigwell Resin Driveways
New build driveways fail when groundworks skip NHBC standards or ignore local soil conditions — poor sub-base leads to settling, cracking, and drainage problems before the first homeowner moves in.
Developers face pressure to complete driveways quickly, leading to inadequate sub-base compaction that causes settling within months of handover
Buckhurst Hill's sandy loam and forest gravel require deeper sub-base preparation than standard spec — skipping this causes uneven surfaces
New driveway regulations require permeable surfaces over 5m² — non-compliant installations delay handover and trigger planning enforcement
Compacted hardcore layer designed for sandy loam soils prevents settling and provides stable foundation for resin-bound surface
Permeable resin allows 600mm/hour drainage rate, meeting planning requirements and preventing water pooling around new builds
