You can add a high-end cosmetic touch to your driveway, patio or pathway by using resin. It will enhance the value of your property. Resin has many additional benefits, not only is it more eco-friendly than concrete.
Eco-Friendly
Resin bound driveways and patios are 10 times greener than concrete. Our resin bound surfaces use natural stone and a high-grade resin that does not contain solvents. They are just as durable as concrete without causing any harm to our planet.
The permeable nature our resin driveways patios and pathways allows water to naturally drain away. This helps reduce the risk of flooding in an eco-friendly and sustainable way.
Sustainable Urban Drainage Compliant
October 2008 saw the passing of legislation affecting households. The law stated that any paving more than 5m in front a property must be permeable. Non-permeable paving would require planning permission. This is also known as Sustainable Urban Drainage (SUDs) in planning terms.
Resin bound driveways and patios are permeable. This is one of the main solutions for meeting the SUDs requirements. The Environmental Agency encourages the use of resin driveways, patios, or paths that do not require planning permission. This is because they can help to reduce surface water runoff as well as reduce flooding potential.
Hard Wearing, Durable & Long Lasting
We use only 100% natural stone from Europe and the UK for our resin driveways, patios and paths. To ensure that the entire range of performance is available for both commercial and domestic installations, extensive testing was done on different aggregates, including strength assessments.
We use the latest polymer technology in resin manufacturing to provide a tough, durable surface with exceptional durability and long-term performance. Our materials result in a durable, long-lasting driveway, patio, or path that is both attractive and lasts.
Low Maintenance
Resin driveways/patios/paths are strong and durable, but they are also more maintenance-friendly than traditional surfacing methods.
As the binding agent, resin provides a seal that is impervious to cracks. This means that you won’t have to worry about weeds growing in the joints. The resin’s flexibility makes it resistive to flaking and cracking, which means you can no longer repoint blocks or flags or add gravel that has been washed.
You can enjoy year-round enjoyment of your driveway, patio, or path by simply doing a sweep and cleaning.
UV Stable, Resistant Against Fading
ResinBound UVR Pro is the most trusted choice in polyurethane epoxy resin kits. It has been designed specifically for resin bound driveways. It is also UV stable. Resin bound aggregates will never yellow, change colour or fade under UV light.
We are proud to offer a 25-year colour lock guarantee from the manufacturer for the ResinBound UVR Pro resin. This is because of its quality and testing.
Stain Resistant
Resin driveways and patios can withstand staining unlike traditional surfacing, such as concrete, asphalt, and stone. The resin acts to seal the natural stones and stops oil, tarmac, concrete, and stone from staining them.
The porous surface of the final surface allows for residues that could stain non-permeable surfaces to be naturally washed away, rather than being absorbed.
Weed Resistant
Because resin bound surfaces have a clever cellular composition, driveways, patios and pathways are resistant to weed growth. Because of its porous nature, water is not retained in the surface and this can cause roots to become resistant.
The single, continuous surface of a resin driveway/patio or path is combined with flexibility to reduce the risk of cracks and reduce the number of joints.
Anti Slip Properties
All of the resin driveways, patios, and paths that we install comply with manufacturer recommendations. They have exceptional anti-slip qualities. Our surfaces meet the safety guidelines of BS7976-2. A ‘Pendulum-Test Value’ (PVT), was used to measure anti-slip qualities. 36 PTV values are required by The Health and Safety Executive. A higher value means that the slip resistance is better.
The lowest possible PVT value we offer for any finish is at 69. Some finishes are higher at 75 and above.
