Resin bound or block paving: compare the specification
Surface choice is only one part of a driveway quote.
Compare the full build-up
Ask for excavation, sub-base, compaction, drainage and edge details. Resin bound and block paving use different construction methods; the proposal should suit your ground and expected use.
Check practical constraints
Record finished levels, access, covers, boundaries and the discharge route for water. Confirm whether local permissions or dropped-kerb approval are required.
Ask about use and maintenance
Agree installation conditions, when vehicles can use the surface, maintenance and repair arrangements. Neither material guarantees freedom from movement, drainage problems or future maintenance.
