Why Resin?
Superb Drainage
Fully SUDS (Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems) compliant, reducing the risk of flooding. Allows rainwater to drain naturally, preventing water buildup and erosion.
Anti-Slip
Anti-slip properties make it safer for walking and driving, even in wet conditions. Resin is a smooth, even surface with no loose stones or trip hazards, makes it wheelchair-friendly.
Super Low Maintenance
Easy to clean—just requires occasional sweeping and power washing. Resistant to weeds, moss, and oil spills. It has no loose stones like traditional gravel surfaces that need to be constantly raked.
How we install Resin
The Resin Installation Process - In Detail
6 inch MOT sub-base with 50mm porous tarmac/asphalt provides the exceptional strength to the driveway/patio.
It’s imperative that the sub-base is built to the above specification to ensure the driveway/patio does not fail prematurely and to ensure rainfall is dealt with appropriately.
30mm UV Stable Resin to finish the drive. Available in a vast choice of colours and with the flexibility to use different colours to highlight paths and special features.
Coupled with our industry standard sub-base, you get a driveway that is fully SUDS compliant.
Only once the resin patio or driveway is finished and you are 100% happy, do we then finalise the transaction and provide you with your guarantee. Your satisfaction is our number 1 priority.
Resin Bound Surfaces
We install resin bound surfaces that are fully compliant with UK Building Control Regulations.
Resin bound systems are highly permeable, allowing water to drain through at an impressive rate of around 850 litres per minute per square metre. This far exceeds even heavy rainfall levels, meaning your driveway won’t suffer from puddling or surface water build-up. Instead, water drains naturally into the ground below, helping to reduce runoff into roads and storm drains—one of the key contributors to flooding.
By comparison, surfaces like tarmac and block paving, while slightly porous, often struggle to cope with high volumes of rain. This can lead to excess water flowing into drainage systems. With modern homes increasingly opting for larger driveways, resin bound surfaces are a smarter, more sustainable solution.
- Resin offers truly bespoke driveways that can feature different colours
- Resin provides a seemless design
- Resin Bound is permeable and therefore puddle free
