Resin Driveways
Resin Bound or Resin Bond?
When it comes to resin surfacing, choosing between resin bound and resin bond driveways is an important consideration. Each has unique characteristics suited to different requirements and preferences:
Resin Bound Driveways
Here, aggregates are thoroughly mixed with resin and then laid on a prepared surface. This method creates a smooth, porous finish, allowing for effective drainage and reducing water pooling. The seamless appearance of resin bound driveways is ideal for creating clean lines and an even surface, making it a popular choice for driveways.
Resin Bond Driveways
On the other hand, resin bond driveways are created by applying a layer of resin to the surface and then scattering the aggregates over the top. This method results in a textured, non-porous, gravel-like finish. Resin bond driveways are an excellent choice for homeowners who prefer a more rustic or natural look, and is particularly suited to driveways with slopes or areas requiring additional grip.
Our team of driveway installers can help you decide which resin surfacing option best meets your specific needs and style.

FAQs – Resin Driveways
How long do resin driveways last?
When installed correctly on a properly prepared base, resin driveways can last many years. Their lifespan depends on factors such as ground preparation, usage levels, and exposure to weather. Regular domestic use is well within the capabilities of resin surfacing, and addressing small issues early helps maintain the surface over the long term.
Are resin driveways suitable for all properties?
Resin driveways suit most domestic properties, but suitability depends on the condition of the existing surface and drainage requirements. Resin bound systems, in particular, are popular where surface water management is important, as they allow rainwater to drain naturally. A site assessment by our expert team will help determine whether resin is the right option or whether preparation work is needed first.
How much maintenance does a resin driveway need?
Similar to block paving, resin driveways are low maintenance compared to many traditional surfaces. Occasional sweeping and light washing help keep the surface clear of debris and organic build-up. Because the finish is seamless, weeds are less likely to take hold, and there are no loose stones to move around.
Can resin be installed over an existing driveway?
In some cases, yes, but only if the base is stable, level, and free from defects. If the underlying surface is cracked, uneven, or poorly drained, it is usually better to remove it and rebuild the area properly before installing resin. This ensures the finished driveway performs as intended and avoids problems appearing later.
Is resin surfacing slippery in wet or icy conditions?
Resin surfacing is designed to provide good grip under normal conditions, and textured aggregate finishes help reduce the risk of slipping when wet. Resin bond systems, in particular, offer a more textured surface that many homeowners prefer for sloped driveways or areas with frequent foot traffic. As with any outdoor surface, extra care is needed in icy weather, but correct installation and aggregate choice help maintain safe, usable access throughout the year.
