Why would you want a resin bound driveway?

A driveway is the last thing you see when you leave your home and the first you, and your guests, experience when arriving at your address.
You want it to look good: resin bound driveway, when done properly, will stay looking handsomely for around quarter of a century. Moreover, with a minimum effort to keep it that way, too. Here’s why:

 

No weeding, just a clean resin-bound driveway

The weed-free surface is achieved thanks to the way the surface for a resin-bound driveway is prepared and layered. Simply speaking, it is very hard for any vegetation to push through; hence a sweep with a brush is enough to keep it in good condition on an everyday basis.

 

No puddles, just a dry resin bound driveway

This is one of the biggest, we think, the advantages of the resin bound system. The surface is firm, even though it gives the impression of neatly arranged loose gravel stones, and water permeates through it. Therefore it minimises the risk of flooding. Where water would remain on the surface, forming slippery puddles on traditionally paved driveways, where a resin bound driveway is professionally put in place, the water simply drains away.

 

No digging in, just secure buggies and high-heels friendly resin bound driveway

The top layer of resin bound stones is very stable and non-slip. This means no more dragging of your full wheelie-bin, it should just glide on the surface. Resin bound driveways make it easier to push bikes, buggies, wheelchairs, and high heels, as these are known to dig into gravel, grass or soft soil.
In a nutshell, resin bound surface can upgrade your driveway and make it a reliable, non-slip surface that is a lovely, welcoming signature of the building.
