Resin Driveways In Chiseldon
Need A New Driveway In Chiseldon?
Durable, Low-Maintenance Resin Bound Surfacing For Homes And Commercial Premises
RPS Resin Driveways installs resin bound driveways, pathways and patios for homes in Chiseldon, from the older cottages around Butts Road and the village green to the newer housing off Norris Close and the former army camp site on Draycott Road. A lot of driveways out here are still gravel or block paving that's seen better days - resin bound surfacing gives a smart, weed-free finish that copes well with the loose stone underneath and won't wash away every time it rains.

About Chiseldon
Chiseldon sits just south of Swindon, tucked between the M4 and the chalk downs that carry the Ridgeway. It's grown a fair bit over the years from a small farming village into somewhere a lot of people commute out of, but it's kept that village feel around the green, the church and the old pubs. The mix of housing reflects that - older stone and brick cottages with narrow driveways or none at all, council-era semis with concrete drives from the 1950s and 60s, and pockets of newer build on what used to be the Draycott barracks site.
Because the village sits on chalk and clay, drainage can be a real issue after heavy rain - water sits on hard surfaces rather than soaking away. A resin bound driveway solves that by letting rainwater pass straight through, and it's just as happy laid over an old cracked drive on a cottage as it is on a newer plot near Norris Close or Hodson Road.

- Permeable & SuDS compliant - rainwater drains straight through rather than pooling at the bottom of sloped driveways, which is common on the hillier streets running up towards the downs.
- Long-lasting - a properly installed resin bound driveway can last 20-25 years or more with very little maintenance.
- Low maintenance - no weeds, no loose stones, and no re-sanding. An occasional sweep and rinse keeps it looking new.
- Wide range of colours - choose from buff, grey, charcoal, brown and feature blends to match stone cottages or modern brick.
- Smooth, slip-resistant finish - comfortable underfoot and safer in wet or icy weather than gravel or block paving.
Our Guarantee
Every resin driveway, pathway or patio we install comes with a 10-year workmanship guarantee covering the installation itself, plus a 15-year supplier guarantee on the resin system. That's not a figure we picked because it sounds good - it reflects what a correctly installed resin bound surface is actually expected to last.
The guarantees are only worth something if the groundwork is right. That's why every job starts with a proper site assessment, and we'll always tell you upfront if the existing base needs more work before resin goes down - rather than cutting corners and hoping for the best.

What Our Customers Say
Homeowners across Swindon and the surrounding area on what it's like to work with RPS Resin Driveways.
"Had the old cracked tarmac ripped up and resin put down in its place. The team came out, gave us a quote the same day, and were back the following week to start. Two days from start to finish and the driveway looks completely different to anything else on the street. Really pleased with it."
Gary W
Park North, Swindon
"We'd been living with the standard concrete drive the developer left us with for two years. RPS came out, looked at what we already had, and said it was sound enough to go over without a full dig. That saved us a fair bit of money. The buff colour we chose looks really clean with the red brick."
Sarah & Mark T
Wichelstowe, Swindon
"Got resin on the back patio rather than the driveway. The quote was clear, no surprises on the day, and they tidied up properly when they left. The surface is easy to keep clean - just a brush off and a rinse and it's done."
Rachel H
Old Town, Swindon
"RPS were recommended by a neighbour. They visited, explained exactly what they'd do and why, and the price was fair. The groundwork took a day because an old concrete base needed cutting out in one corner, but they told us about that upfront. Happy with the result."
Dave & Linda M
Chippenham
"Third resin driveway I've had in different houses over the years, and this was the best experience of the three. Clear communication, showed up when they said they would, and the finish is tidy. The sub-base felt very solid - you could tell they didn't rush it."
