Tarmac vs. Resin Driveways: Which is Right for You?

Choosing a new driveway can be a tough decision, but two of the most popular options are tarmac and resin bound. While both are great choices, they offer different benefits that might sway your decision plus pricing.


Tarmac driveways are a classic for a reason. They are durable, cost-effective, and quick to install. The dark, smooth surface is excellent for areas with heavy vehicle traffic and can withstand harsh weather conditions. Tarmac is a no-nonsense, practical solution that gets the job done without breaking the bank but as time moves dis-colouring can form on Tarmac.


Resin driveways, on the other hand, offer a touch of elegance and curb appeal. Made from a mixture of aggregate stones and resin, they come in a vast range of colours and finishes. The surface is permeable, meaning it allows water to drain through,

reducing puddles and helping with flood prevention. It's also low-maintenance and highly durable, resisting cracks and weeds.


Ultimately, the best choice depends on your priorities. If you need a simple, affordable, and robust surface, tarmac is the way

to go. If you value aesthetics, a variety of design options, and a permeable surface, then a resin driveway is the correct option

for you.
