Slipping on it just before you get into your car, or while carrying groceries can quickly spoil your day. Having to spend an afternoon every couple of months weeding your driveways is no fun as well. Unfortunately, there is not much that can be done with a traditional driveway when it is left to the elements: humidity, puddles, unwanted plants…
If you are noticing those issues often enough for them to start troubling your mind, it may be an indication this is a right moment to consider revamping your driveway, and resin bound surface is something we would recommend you consider.

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.
Resin bound stone can be mixed in a variety of colours:
