Resin bound driveways
Our resin-bound driveways combine natural aggregates with polyurethane resin for a seamless, durable surface. Ideal for residential and commercial properties, they resist weeds, fading, and cracking while allowing water permeability. Suitable for heritage sites and modern developments, these driveways enhance aesthetics and property value with minimal maintenance.
Pathways
Smooth, anti-slip resin pathways provide safe, accessible routes for public parks, gardens, and private properties. The permeable design prevents puddling, while UV-stable aggregates ensure long-lasting colour vibrancy. Customisable to blend with natural surroundings, ideal for high-traffic areas.
Swimming pool surrounds
Non-slip, water-draining resin surfaces around pools and hot tubs enhance safety and aesthetics. The porous structure prevents waterlogging, and the seamless finish eliminates tripping hazards. Available in various natural stone blends to complement pool designs.
Heritage site surfacing
Approved by English Heritage and the National Trust, our resin systems restore historic sites without compromising original character. The material mimics traditional finishes while offering modern durability and compliance with conservation standards, ensuring longevity for listed buildings and heritage landscapes.
Patios
Low-maintenance resin patios provide elegant, weed-resistant surfaces for gardens and terraces. The eco-friendly material drains naturally, reducing puddles, and comes in diverse aggregate options to match architectural styles, from contemporary to rustic.
Questions
What is resin-bound surfacing?
Resin-bound surfacing uses natural aggregates bound with polyurethane resin to create durable, permeable surfaces for driveways, paths, and patios.
Is resin surfacing eco-friendly?
Yes, our systems are SUDS-compliant, allowing water drainage and reducing flooding risks. They use organic resin and natural stone, making them 10 times more eco-friendly than concrete.
Do I need planning permission?
Resin-bound surfaces are permeable, typically exempting them from planning permission under current UK regulations.
How long does installation take?
Most residential projects complete within 1-2 days, depending on area size and weather conditions.
What maintenance is required?
Minimal upkeep with occasional pressure washing. The surface resists weeds and staining, eliminating the need for sealants.
Can it be used on existing surfaces?
Yes, resin can be applied over sound concrete or asphalt, avoiding costly removal and reducing waste.
