Why use resin for your patio, driveway or path in Bingham?

Resin can be used to finish your driveway, patio, or path. It also adds a beautiful aesthetic touch that will increase the property’s value. Resin is more eco-friendly that concrete and has many other advantages.

Eco-Friendly

Resin bound driveways can be as eco-friendly as concrete patios and walkways. Our resin bound surfaces are made with natural stone and a high quality resin containing no solvents. This ensures that they are as strong as concrete, yet are less harmful to the planet.

Our resin driveways, patios, and paths are permeable, allowing water to drain away naturally. This reduces the possibility of flooding and is sustainable, eco-friendly, and natural.

Sustainable Urban Drainage Compliant

October 2008 saw legislation being passed that required all paving to the front of a house to be permeable. Anything that isn’t would need permission. This is called Sustainable Urban Drainage in planning terms.

Resin bound driveways as well as patios and paths can be permeable. The Environmental Agency encourages the use of resin driveways, patios, or paths that do not require planning permission. This is because they can help to reduce surface water runoff as well as reduce flooding potential.

Hard Wearing, Durable & Long Lasting

All of the materials we use for your resin driveway or patio are 100% natural stone sourced from Europe and UK. To ensure that the entire range of performance is available for both commercial and domestic installations, extensive testing was done on different aggregates, including strength assessments.

Our resins are made with the most advanced polymer technology to create a durable and resilient surface. They also have a unique durability and longevity that is unmatched in the industry. We use high quality materials to create a driveway, patio, path or walkway that is durable and lasts for many years.

Low Maintenance

Resin driveways and patios are durable and long-lasting. However, they can also be used for low maintenance.

Resin is used as a binding agent to create a sealed surface that doesn’t crack. This eliminates the need for you to worry about weeds growing between the joints. Because the resin is flexible, it is resistant to flaking or cracking. This means that you don’t have to repoint flags, block paving or top up gravel that has been washed away.

There are many ways to enjoy your driveway, patio, and path year after year.

UV Stable, Resistant Against Fading

ResinBound UVR Pro is our professional choice in polyurethane kits. It was specifically designed for resin bound driveways, patios, and paths. It is UV stable, so resin bound aggregates won’t yellow or change colour with the sun’s UV light.

ResinBound UVR Pro resin is so high quality that we offer a 25 year guarantee on the colour.

Stain Resistant

Resin driveways, patios, and paths are more resistant to staining than traditional surfacing like concrete, tarmac, and stone. The resin acts to seal the natural stones and stops oil, tarmac, concrete, and stone from staining them.

The porous structure on the finished surface allows any residues that may be staining to non-permeable surfaces can be naturally washed away instead of being absorbed.

Weed Resistant

It is possible to make driveways, patios, and paths more resistant to weed growth by using the clever cellular structure created when resin bound surfaces are installed. The porous surface allows water to flow through the material, but not into the soil. This prevents weeds from growing and causing damage to their roots.

Furthermore, the resin driveway, patio, and path provides a single surface that is continuous. The flexibility combined with the lack of joints eliminates the potential for cracks in traditional surfacing materials.

Anti Slip Properties

All resin driveways, patios and pathways we install follow manufacturer recommendations. This ensures exceptional anti-slip characteristics. All surfaces that we offer meet or exceed the safety requirements of BS7976-2 guidelines have been tested. A ‘Pendulum Value’ (PVT), is the test that was done to determine anti-slip characteristics. A 36-point PTV value corresponds to the requirements of The Health and Safety Executive. The higher the value, the better the slip resistance.

The lowest possible PVT value we offer for any finish is at 69. Some finishes are higher at 75 and above.
