Resin Driveway Price Guide for Hampshire Homeowners — 2026
Planning a resin driveway in Hampshire and want to know exactly what you will pay? This price guide covers the full cost breakdown for 2026 — from base rate per m² to typical project totals by size, with every figure anchored to our £65–£110/m² Hampshire pricing, 10-year installation guarantee, and SuDS-compliant permeable surface standard.
The Hampshire Base Rate — What Drives the Price From £65 to £110/m²
The base rate for a resin driveway in Hampshire is £65/m² on a sound existing surface — a solid 1990s concrete or tarmac base that can be primed and overlaid without excavation. Where the base is compromised or non-existent, full sub-base replacement adds £15–£30/m², putting the all-in range at £65–£110/m². The majority of Hampshire projects land in the £70–£90/m² range — above the base overlay rate because most driveways need some remedial preparation, but below the ceiling because most do not need a complete new sub-base from scratch.
Typical Project Totals by Driveway Size
Size brackets and typical totals for Hampshire driveways fully installed: small driveway (20–25m²) £1,300–£2,750; medium driveway (30–45m²) £1,950–£4,950; large driveway (50–80m²) £3,250–£8,800. All figures are fully installed and include kit, labour, edging, manhole work, and site clean-up — no day-rate estimates, no undisclosed extras. Every Hampshire customer receives a fixed written quote before work begins, so the figure you agree is the figure you pay.
Add-On Costs to Budget For
Beyond the core resin surface, several add-ons appear on many Hampshire quotes: an ACO-style drainage channel across the threshold costs £200–£400 depending on length; recessed manhole covers are £150–£300 each (infilling flush with the resin for a seamless finish); decorative cobble or granite sett edging around the perimeter runs £150–£400 depending on specification. All of these are listed individually in the written quote before any work starts — there are no surprises billed after the job is done.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the cheapest realistic price for a resin driveway in Hampshire?
The lowest legitimate price is around £65/m² — achievable on a compact drive (20–25m²) with a sound existing concrete or tarmac base, standard UK quartz aggregate, and good site access. A 20m² drive at this rate is approximately £1,300 fully installed. Below £60/m², base specification or resin quality is almost certainly being compromised.
Does the price include VAT?
Our Hampshire prices are quoted inclusive of all materials and labour. VAT applicability depends on whether the installer is VAT-registered — we provide a fully itemised written quote so you can see exactly what is included. Always confirm with your installer whether their quote is ex-VAT or inclusive.
What is the most expensive part of a resin driveway installation?
For most Hampshire driveways, labour and base preparation account for the largest portion of the cost — typically 50–60% of the total. This is why a compromised base that requires full excavation and sub-base replacement has such a significant effect on the final price.
