Resin Driveways for homes in Forest Town
Resin bound surfacing gives you a smooth, seamless finish with no loose stone to kick up onto the lawn or get walked into the house. The aggregate is mixed with resin and trowelled out by hand, so it can follow curves and awkward shapes that block paving struggles with, and it can be laid over a suitable existing base or a fresh one we build. Because it is permeable, water drains through the surface rather than running off it. There is a wide range of aggregate colours, from pale golds and silvers through to darker greys and browns, and we will bring samples out so you can see them against your brick and stone rather than guessing from a screen.
Working in Forest Town
Forest Town sits on the eastern edge of Mansfield and was built as a model village for Mansfield Colliery, which gives the older part of it a planned, consistent layout — regular streets of brick housing on uniform plots with defined front gardens and long rear gardens. Considerable modern development has expanded the settlement since, adding newer estate housing with smaller, level plots. The planned older housing is genuinely rewarding to work with because the plots are consistent and generous: there is room for a driveway with proper turning space and a rear garden that can carry a full scheme rather than a single patio. The area sits on the free-draining Sherwood sandstone, favourable for base construction but still requiring proper compaction under a driveway.
