Resin Bound Driveways

How We Can Help?

Resin Bound Driveways are installed using a method where aggregate is mixed with resin and applied over a solid base. To ensure the highest quality result, it is crucial to have a sound and level base, ideally monolithic, such as concrete or tarmac. The base must be clean, free from grease, standing water, and loose material to allow proper adhesion. Our quick-curing resin system enables the driveway to handle traffic within hours after installation. For peace of mind and long-lasting results, we recommend hiring a specialist like our company, which provides guaranteed workmanship.

You can choose from a variety of aggregates, typically up to 6mm in size, to achieve a desired finish. The aggregate is mixed with resin, then troweled evenly over the surface, allowing for a smooth, seamless look. Resin Bound Driveways are ideal for both residential and commercial properties and can be customized with designs or logos to complement the surrounding environment.

Advantages of Resin Bound Driveways

Resin Bound Driveways have gained significant popularity due to their aesthetic appeal, durability, quick installation, slip resistance, and low maintenance. Unlike traditional gravel driveways, they don’t lose stones, which can damage cars or be tracked into the house. These driveways are created using the trowelled method, also known as resin bound surfacing or Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS). The SUDS system helps manage water runoff by allowing it to permeate through the surface and return to the earth, reducing the risk of flooding. Additionally, Resin Bound surfaces can incorporate recycled materials such as plastics, rubber, and glass, enhancing their eco-friendly appeal.

Resin Bound Paving Benefits

Resin Bound paving, a permeable surfacing solution, combines aggregate stones and resin to create footpaths, driveways, and more. This flexible material resists cracking and is mixed on-site, ensuring thorough coating of aggregate particles for a fully bound surface. Unlike other resin-based methods where aggregate can become loose over time, Resin Bound surfaces are more durable and require minimal maintenance. Regular sweeping or power washing, at least twice a year, is recommended to prevent detritus buildup and moss or algae growth.

Resin Bound paving meets Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS) standards, allowing water to drain freely through the surface. This permeability prevents standing water and significantly reduces surface runoff, making it a responsible and sustainable choice for modern paving solutions.

Frequently Asked Questions

No, but they require less maintenance than block paving or gravel. Occasional sweeping and pressure washing will keep them looking fresh.
A well-installed resin-bound driveway can last 15-20 years with proper upkeep. The quality of resin and base preparation impact lifespan.
They are fully permeable, reducing surface water runoff and preventing puddles. This makes them SuDS-compliant in most cases.
Yes, resin comes in various colours and aggregate sizes, allowing for a bespoke finish that enhances curb appeal.
Yes, they are more sustainable than concrete or tarmac as they allow water to drain naturally and often include recycled materials like crushed glass or rubber.
