What is Resin Bound Surfacing?
Resin bound surfacing is a premium, innovative driveway solution that mixes natural aggregate stones with a clear, UV-stable polyurethane resin. The mixture is then trowelled down to a smooth, flat finish. It is rapidly becoming the top choice for homeowners in Newport and South Wales seeking a stunning, modern entrance to their properties.
Unlike resin bonded surfaces, where stones are simply scattered onto a resin layer, resin bound encapsulates every single stone in resin. This creates a highly durable, permeable (porous) surface that allows water to drain naturally through it, making it fully SuDS (Sustainable Drainage Systems) compliant.
With our expert installation, a resin bound driveway provides a seamless, hard-wearing finish that can easily withstand daily vehicle traffic. It is exceptionally resistant to weeds, frost, and UV damage, meaning your driveway will maintain its vibrant colour and flawless appearance for years to come without cracking or fading.
Available in a wide array of stunning colours and bespoke aggregate blends, resin bound surfaces can be tailored to perfectly complement both traditional and contemporary homes. Whether you are upgrading a small pathway or a large sweeping driveway, it offers unparalleled kerb appeal and adds significant value to your home.
Benefits for Newport & South Wales Homes
SuDS Compliant
Because it's permeable, it easily handles heavy Welsh rainfall. It complies with Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) regulations, meaning no planning permission is needed in most cases.
Frost & Weed Resistant
The seamless finish gives weeds nowhere to root, and its flexible nature means it won't crack during freezing Welsh winters.
UV Stable
We use premium UV-stable resin, ensuring your beautiful new driveway won't fade or yellow over time when exposed to sunlight.
The Installation Process
Preparation
We fully excavate the area or prepare your existing solid base (tarmac/concrete), ensuring proper edging and drainage.
Priming
If laying over an existing base, we apply a specialized polymer primer to ensure maximum adhesion.
Mixing
Using a forced action mixer, we combine the exact ratio of chosen aggregates with our premium UV-stable resin.
Laying
Our expert team hand-trowels the mixture to a perfectly smooth, level finish, typically at an 18mm depth.
Curing
The surface is left to cure. It can usually take foot traffic after 6-8 hours and vehicles within 24-48 hours.
