Why Hampshire Prices Start at £65/m²
£65/m² is the realistic floor for a quality resin-bound driveway on a sound existing base — common on 1990s estates in Whiteley, Hook and Fleet. Where the old surface has failed and needs digging out, a new MOT Type 1 sub-base pushes the price to £90–£110/m². Most Hampshire projects we quote land in the £70–£95/m² range. Anything well below £65/m² usually means thinner resin, aromatic resin that yellows, or base work being skipped.
What Moves Your Price Up or Down
Base condition is the single biggest variable: a sound concrete or tarmac base avoids £15–£30/m² in sub-base work. Aggregate is second — premium imported blends such as Pearl or Graphite add £5–£15/m² over standard UK quartz. Access, drainage channels, recessed manhole covers and decorative edging are the remaining variables, and all are itemised in your written quote before work starts.
Typical Hampshire Project Totals
A compact 20m² terrace drive starts from around £1,300; a 30m² semi from £1,950; a 40m² double drive from £2,600; 50m² from £3,250; and a large 80m² detached drive from £5,200 — all fully installed. Clay sub-soils (Alton, inland Lymington) tend to sit higher in the range; free-draining chalk and sand (Petersfield, Ringwood, Bordon) tend to sit lower.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a resin driveway cost in the UK in 2026?
Most UK resin-bound driveways cost £65–£110 per m² fully installed. In Hampshire a typical 40m² driveway costs £2,600–£4,400 depending on base condition and aggregate choice.
How much is a 100 square metre resin driveway?
A 100m² resin driveway in Hampshire costs roughly £6,500 on a sound existing base, £8,500 for a typical project, and up to £11,000 where a full new sub-base is needed.
Is resin cheaper than tarmac?
No — tarmac is cheaper to lay at around £25–£50/m², but it needs resurfacing every 7–12 years and usually needs planning permission for a new front drive. Resin-bound lasts 20+ years and is SuDS-compliant.
Why do resin driveway quotes vary so much?
Quotes differ mainly on base preparation, resin type (UV-stable aliphatic vs cheaper aromatic) and whether edging and drainage are included. Always compare fixed, itemised written quotes.
