Resin Bound

Resin bound driveway specialists.

Smooth, seamless, permeable surfaces installed in a huge range of natural aggregates. No loose stone, no puddles, SuDS-compliant and trowel-finished on site.

Overview

What we do & why it lasts.

Resin bound is one of our two flagship installations. We mix UV-stable polyurethane resin with kiln-dried, washed natural aggregate on site, then trowel it onto a properly prepared base to a typical 18mm depth.

The finish is smooth underfoot, fully permeable so it meets SuDS planning requirements, and free of the loose stone you get with cheaper resin-bonded jobs. Every install is laid by our own trained crew using premium UK-manufactured resin systems.

We also rejuvenate tired resin drives that have faded, loosened or lost their seal — often for a fraction of a full replacement.

Benefits

Why homeowners choose this finish.

Permeable & SuDS-compliant

Rainwater drains through the surface — no planning issues, no puddles, no run-off.

Seamless finish

No joints, no blocks. A single continuous surface that hides the boundary between drive, path and patio.

Huge aggregate choice

Natural marble, granite and quartz blends in every shade from arctic white to deep charcoal.

Low maintenance

Sweep occasionally, jet wash once a year. UV-stable resin won't yellow or crack.
