Nationwide Resin-Bound Driveway Surfacing
Resin-bound surfacing provides a smooth decorative finish that has become a popular alternative to traditional tarmac, gravel and block paving for suitable driveways and pedestrian areas.
Natural aggregates are mixed with resin before installation, creating a continuous surface that can be tailored to complement the colour and style of the surrounding property.

What Is a Resin-Bound Driveway?
With a resin-bound system, selected aggregates are thoroughly mixed with resin before being applied to a suitably prepared base.
This creates a smooth, continuous decorative surface without the loose stone associated with a traditional gravel driveway.
A properly specified resin-bound system can also be permeable, allowing water to pass through the finished surface where the underlying construction has been designed to accommodate drainage.

Low Maintenance
Routine sweeping and occasional cleaning can help maintain the appearance of the surface.
Permeable Options
Properly designed resin-bound systems can allow surface water to drain through.
Flexible Design
Useful for curves, borders and areas requiring a more decorative finish.
No Loose Gravel
The aggregate is bound within the resin, creating a more stable finished surface.
Good Preparation Is Essential
The performance of a resin driveway depends heavily on the condition and construction of the surface underneath it.
Resin should not simply be installed over an unstable, badly cracked or unsuitable base. Existing defects need to be assessed and any necessary preparation completed before the resin system is applied.
Resin Driveway Colours & Finishes
One of the main attractions of resin-bound surfacing is the range of decorative aggregate blends available.
The finished driveway can be selected to complement brick, stone, render, landscaping and the overall appearance of the property.
Borders and contrasting sections can also be incorporated where appropriate to create a more individual design.
UV-Stable Resin Systems
Different resin systems are available for different applications. Where colour stability is particularly important, a suitable UV-stable resin system can be specified.
The appropriate specification should be selected according to the aggregate, location, intended use and desired appearance of the finished surface.

Resin Driveway FAQs
What is a resin-bound driveway?
A resin-bound driveway is created by mixing selected aggregate with resin before applying the mixture to a suitably prepared surface. This produces a smooth decorative finish without loose stone.
Are resin-bound driveways permeable?
A correctly designed resin-bound system can be permeable, although drainage performance depends on the complete construction beneath the finished resin surface.
Can resin be installed over an existing driveway?
In some circumstances, yes. The existing surface needs to be stable and suitable for the proposed system. Cracking, movement or other failures may require remedial work first.
Is resin suitable for paths and patios?
Yes. Resin-bound surfacing can be used for suitable paths, patios, courtyards and other pedestrian areas.
Are different resin driveway colours available?
Yes. A range of aggregate blends can be used to create different colours and appearances to complement the property.
