If you have heard about resin driveways and resin pathways and want to know more, you have come to the right place. Here at Greenstone Landscapes, we are expert resin driveway installers with over 30 years of experience. Our headquarters is based in Chelmsford, Essex, and we provide our professional resin bound driveway and pathway projects throughout the southeast.
What is Resin Bound Surfacing?
Resin bound surfacing represents a surfacing innovation achieved by blending resin and aggregates in a forced action mixer. This mixing process produces a versatile mixture that can be skillfully trowelled onto various surfaces, creating a smooth and flat finish. The resin bound system delivers a decorative gravel surface known for its attractive, durable, and practical qualities, making it ideal for driveways and pathways.
The seamless nature of this system not only enhances its visual appeal but also contributes to its durability. Notably, the resin bonded systems allow for small gaps between aggregates, rendering them permeable. This permeability and adherence to Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS) compliance signifies that planning permission is often unnecessary, provided a suitable porous subbase is utilised.
Resin Drives and Paths Provide a Smooth and Hard Wearing Surface
Resin surfacing provides a smooth, hard-wearing, porous/semi-porous surface ideal for driveways. The finished appearance offers a seamless, coloured transformation that is flexible and cracking-resistant.
As well as installing over a new, specially prepared base, resin bound gravel can be applied directly onto existing tarmac, concrete or other suitable substrates. This results in a faster installation with minimal disruption. Available in a wide range of blends, the product combines resin and natural, recycled aggregates, which can complement or contrast any adjacent surfaces.
Resin Surfaces are Low Maintenance and Provide a Clean Aesthetic Appearance
Our resin surfacing requires minimal maintenance and is designed to be easily cleaned by pressure washing. Greenstone Landscapes combines over 30 years of experience alongside tried and tested BBA (British Board of Agrément) approved materials to ensure high-quality service and products.
