What makes a quality resin bound driveway?

Understandably, there are several key factors that contribute to a quality resin bound driveway. Therefore, we've grouped these into materials and installation processes.

Using quality materials

• High-quality resin: Crucially, the resin acts as the binder, holding the aggregate stones together. We opt for a UV-stable, high-strength polyurethane resin that can withstand weather extremes and prevent cracking.
• Durable aggregates: The stones used in the mix should be clean, washed and free of dust or debris. Therefore, we choose aggregates that are hard-wearing and resistant to chipping or fading. Additionally, we consider the size, shape, and colour of the aggregates to achieve your desired aesthetics and functionality.

Professional Installation

• Proper sub-base preparation: A well-compacted and stable sub-base is crucial for a long-lasting driveway. For example, this could involve installing a crushed rock base for permeability or using an existing tarmac or concrete base if appropriate. Alternatively, we will install a tarmac base sub-base if needed.
• Experienced installer: A qualified and experienced installer ensures the resin and aggregates are mixed in the correct proportions and laid evenly throughout the designated area. Paramount, is a proper trowelling technique undertaken by a professional installer which is essential for a smooth, level finish.
• Attention to detail: Crucially, quality work is evident in the details. For example, like ensuring clean edges with block borders laid by our brick layer, proper drainage channels for rainwater runoff and no loose chippings or uneven surfaces.

Additional factors

• Permeability: If desired, choose a permeable system that allows water to drain through the driveway and reduce surface water buildup. Therefore, our resin driveways are SUDS compliant and allow water to drain through.
• Guarantee: A reputable company will offer a guarantee or warranty on their work, providing you with peace of mind and assurance of quality. Premier Resin Drives offer our renown Quibble Free Guarantee.
