Resin bound is the fastest-growing driveway material in Kildare, and for good reason. It delivers a seamless, smooth, uniform finish with the visual richness of natural stone, it drains naturally through the surface (no puddles, no runoff), it does not crack in frost cycles, and it requires essentially no maintenance over its 15-20 year lifespan. For homeowners who want a driveway that just looks sharp and stays that way, resin bound is the answer.
The material is a mix of UV-stable polyurethane resin and natural stone aggregate, trowelled onto a proper tarmac or concrete base at the right thickness and cured in place. The key to a resin bound driveway that lasts is the same as every other driveway, the base underneath. We install resin bound in Kildare either over an existing sound tarmac or concrete base (where the base is in good condition), or on a freshly laid tarmac binder course for new builds and full rebuilds. Cutting corners on the base, laying resin directly on hardcore, or over cracked concrete, is the single biggest cause of resin driveway failures.
Across Kildare, resin bound is particularly popular on the newer commuter-belt estates around Naas, Newbridge, Maynooth, Sallins and Celbridge where the architecture is contemporary and a modern, seamless finish fits the house style. It is also increasingly common on premium rural Kildare properties where the aggregate choice, gold-blend, silver-grey, copper-brown, black-ice, lets homeowners match the finish to the surrounding landscape. We stock sample boards from the main Irish aggregate suppliers so you can see the real finish before committing.
Resin bound is also a clean fit for Kildare County Council SuDS requirements on front garden conversions over 5 square metres. The permeable nature of the surface means rainwater passes straight through to the sub-base and into the ground, removing the need for separate soakaway engineering and meeting surface water drainage compliance as standard. That is one of the reasons it is replacing block paving on many larger front garden builds, fewer elements, simpler compliance, cleaner finish.
Rated 5 stars by homeowners across Dublin and Leinster.
Every job backed by our 5-year workmanship guarantee.

Resin bound driveway failures are almost always base failures. We never lay resin on hardcore alone or over cracked concrete. If the existing base is sound we use it. If not, we install a fresh tarmac binder course as the resin base. No shortcuts.
Resin bound gives a uniform, seamless surface with the colour and texture variation of natural stone aggregate. Wide range of finishes, gold blends, silver greys, copper browns, classic black-ice, sampled on site against your house and planting.
Water passes straight through resin bound to the sub-base, which means no puddles on the driveway and no separate soakaway engineering needed to meet Kildare County Council surface water rules on front garden conversions.
15 to 20 years of lifespan with no sealing, no repointing, no weeding. Occasional power-wash if it picks up leaf litter or moss on shaded sections. That is the full maintenance schedule. No other driveway material comes close.
We visit your Kildare property to measure the area, assess any existing base, and discuss aggregate finish options. Sample boards brought to site. Detailed written quote within 48 hours.
If the existing tarmac or concrete base is sound we clean and prime it. If not, we excavate, install hardcore sub-base and lay a fresh tarmac binder course as the resin base. Correct falls for drainage set at this stage.
Install concrete edge restraint or kerbstones around the perimeter. This defines the finished edge of the resin surface and prevents edge wear over time.
On-site, we mix UV-stable polyurethane resin with your chosen decorative aggregate in a forced-action mixer in the correct ratio. Mixed material is trowelled immediately onto the primed base at consistent 15-20mm thickness.
The mixed resin bound is hand-trowelled smooth, left to cure for 8-12 hours depending on temperature, and then walked-on and driven-on after the cure window. Care guidance provided at handover.
Resin bound driveway prices in Kildare depend on whether an existing sound base can be used or a fresh tarmac base needs to be laid, the aggregate range selected, and site access. Prices below assume standard conditions and include all base preparation, materials and installation.

"I couldn't recommend Paul from Delaney Tarmac enough. Paul himself came out to discuss with us, went into every little detail and designed our dream patio, even better than we could have imagined. We also got our driveway tarmaced with the highest quality materials."
