How the quiz works

Answer 9 quick questions about your situation. Each answer adds to a score, and the score tells you how urgent it is and what to do next. It takes about two minutes and you don’t need to give any details to see your result.

What the results mean

Likely ready for a resin overlay. Your base sounds sound. Resin bound can often be laid straight on top, which is the quickest and cheapest route.

Some repairs or drainage first. Parts of the drive may need patching, new edging or better drainage before resin goes down. A survey will show how much.

Expect a new base. The current surface is unlikely to support resin. Plan for a dig-out and new permeable base. It costs more, but it is what makes resin last.

Full rebuild and access work. Your drive likely needs a full rebuild, drainage and possibly a new dropped kerb before resin is an option.

A guide only, not a diagnosis. We confirm what is needed when we see it.
