£10m public liability cover | RAMS available | Council approved | Free site survey

Scope and local coverage

Our Bicester project shows how a planted front garden and existing hardstanding can become a usable resin-bound driveway. The finished surface curves around a retained tree and lawn, with defined borders to the planting and entrance.

Changing a garden into parking needs more than choosing a colour. We assess the available space, access, existing levels and drainage before recommending the construction. We use Daltex Base, Daltex aggregates and Daltex resins, with the specification agreed for your property.

We have completed resin driveway work in Bicester, Oxfordshire. Further visits are arranged around project scope and availability.

What the work covers

  • Front-garden driveway layouts and replacement resin surfaces
  • Assessment of existing hardstanding and preparation requirements
  • Resin-bound surfacing with a site-specific base specification
  • Curved edges around lawns, trees and planting
  • Drainage design and checks at the property entrance

What we check first

Garden layout

Parking and pedestrian access, with space retained for trees and planting where appropriate.

Base condition

Whether existing hardstanding is suitable or needs removing before new construction.

Levels and drainage

Falls at the house, boundaries and highway, and where water can lawfully discharge.

Finish and edging

Aggregate appearance, border details and the junction with lawns and paths.

Local planning and drainage notes

Front garden driveways: Planning Portal guidance

Planning Portal says a new or replaced impermeable driveway at the front of a house over 5 square metres usually needs planning permission unless rainwater drains to a lawn or border or the surface is permeable. Dropped kerbs and other restrictions may need separate approval, and flats, listed buildings and Article 4 areas are treated differently.

Bicester planning and drainage checks

Bicester is in Cherwell district, Oxfordshire. Check property-specific planning requirements with Cherwell District Council before converting a front garden into parking. Resin-bound surfacing alone does not establish SuDS compliance: the base, ground conditions and water destination must also be suitable. Highway access or a dropped kerb may need separate approval.

These notes summarise published guidance to help you plan questions. They are not planning, building control or drainage approval. Always confirm requirements with your local authority before work starts.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a driveway you completed in Bicester?

Yes. The owner has confirmed this resin driveway was completed in Bicester, Oxfordshire. All four images show the same project, including three before-and-after comparisons.

Can you convert a front garden into a driveway?

We can assess the space, access, base and drainage at a survey. Planning restrictions and highway access need checking before work starts.

Does resin automatically make a driveway SuDS compliant?

No. A permeable surface needs a suitable construction and drainage design beneath it. Soil conditions, the base and where water goes all need checking.
