Surface Renewal
Stable concrete or tarmac that looks tired but base is sound — resin overlay refreshes appearance without removal and disruption.
What We Do
Covering surface preparation, bonding primer application, aggregate skim coat, and compatibility assessment for concrete or tarmac bases.
Overlay Application
Bonding primer and aggregate skim coat applied over cleaned concrete or tarmac base
Surface Compatibility Check
Assessment confirms base stability and identifies repairs needed before overlay
Why Chigwell Resin Driveways
Most overlay failures start with poor surface preparation — skipping cleaning or primer means the aggregate layer peels within months.
Concrete or tarmac driveways show wear but base remains stable — full replacement means removal costs and disruption you want to avoid.
Worry that overlay is a temporary fix and will peel or crack if existing surface isn't properly prepared or base has hidden problems.
Clay soils and sandy gravel layers in Havering mean base stability is critical — overlay won't last if underlying movement continues.
Resin overlay over stable concrete or tarmac avoids removal and disposal costs — bonding primer and aggregate skim coat applied directly to prepared base.
Cleaning removes oil, dirt, and loose material before bonding primer is applied — primer creates mechanical bond between existing base and new aggregate layer.

Assessment confirms existing surface is stable enough for overlay — cracks or movement are repaired first so overlay doesn't inherit underlying problems.
Overlay application takes 1-2 days vs 3-5 days for full replacement — no removal means less noise, less mess, and faster return to use.
