You’ve seen them on lots of houses near you and you’ve no doubt thought “wow they look really good!”, but what actually is a resin driveway, and why are they gaining popularity?
–
A resin bound driveway is composed of different natural aggregate bound together in a resin to provide a beautiful looking, long-lasting driveway.
There are many benefits to resin driveways beyond their aesthetics. The drainage is much greater than standard tarmac driveways due to small gaps between the aggregates in the resin. This allows for the water to seep through and drain away with almost no standing water.
The wide range of colour and design choices is what attracts a lot of people to our PermaDrive solution. With many standard and premium colour choices to pick, there is an option to improve your driveway’s looks that suits everyone.
Additional Resin Bound Driveways Benefits
The unique cellular composition of resin driveways means they are almost completely resistant to weeds and greenery growing within.
The prominent drainage that they provide also mean no additional drainage or water collection systems need installing, allowing for additional cost saving and less need for water repairs in the long run.
How long do Resin Driveways last?
Years. Our PermaDrive resin driveways and patios are built to stand the test of time for years to come even with daily heavy use.
The structure of the compound allows for small changes caused by heat expansion meaning cracks typically seen in tarmac and concrete driveways are no more.
Maintaining a Resin Bound Driveway
Little maintenance is required for PermaDrive and PermaPatio resin bound compounds which is a great benefit for those after a low-maintenance solution. A small effort of aftercare is all that is needed to keep any resin driveway in top condition…
A once over with a jet wash is all that is needed to clean the majority of a resin bound aggregate surface as these are much more resistant to stains than typical surfaces.
