Extremely durable

It is important to be sure that your new driveway will last many years. Resin driveways can last for years. This is the good news. The strength of resin driveways is due to the combination of strong ingredients such as natural aggregate, stones, glass, and other robust materials. Resin is permeable so water doesn’t cause damage to these driveways.

Resin driveways are durable and can last for 25 years when maintained properly. Concrete and other materials can be more susceptible to cracking. Concrete cracks often under pressure, ruining the driveway’s appearance. Elite Tarmac Drives offers a 10-year guarantee on all driveways. You can be sure that your driveway will remain in good condition for the next decade. If you take care of your driveway properly, it can last for a long time.

Easy to maintain

Resin driveways are easy to maintain. They only require routine cleaning and occasional spray washing. A stiff broom can remove leaves and prevent moss growth. A jet wash will get rid dirt, stains and other elements that could cause damage. Freeze spray can often be used to remove chewing gum from resin surfaces.

Water permeable

Resin bound driveways can be water permeable which makes surface water buildup less likely. Water can flow through the driveway into the ground underneath to be absorbed in the earth. A resin driveway can prevent flooding and puddles in many cases. Major flooding events are becoming more frequent in the UK. It is important that we all take steps towards preventing surface run-off, especially in urban areas. Other surface options like tarmac, concrete, or block paving are often non-permeable and more susceptible to being flooded.

Weed resistant

There is nothing worse than weeds growing through your driveway, ruining its appearance. Due to their unique, cellular composition, resin bound driveways resist weed growth. They’re also often treated before they are installed to make them resistant to weeds.

However, they can be affected by weeds. Sometimes, small seeds may fall onto driveways, leading to surface weeds. It is important to sweep your driveway regularly to prevent this.

Smooth and flat

Because it is flat and secure, resin bound is a popular choice for driveways. The aggregates are mixed together and the mixture is then poured. It is then hand-trowelled to create a seamless, smooth surface without any loose stones. This resin binding is ideal for driveways that require wheelchairs, pushchairs or bicycle access. Resin bound driveways can be used for a wide variety of purposes without fear of accidents or skidding. Resin driveways are ideal for both homes and hospitals.

Do I need a resin-bound or resin-bonded driveway?

Resin bonded or resin bound are two options if you’re considering investing in a resin driveway. Although they have very similar names, the two systems are actually quite different. Although both systems use a combination resin and aggregates to make surfaces, there is one key difference. A resin bonded driveway has the resin distributed on the surface with loose stones placed on top. For a resin bound driveway, the resin must be combined with the stone before it can be trowelled into position.

Water permeability is one of the key differences between them. Resin bonded driveways don’t have water permeability, but resin bound driveways are. Elite Tarmac Drives offers both resin bound and resin-bonded surfacing. We can assist you in choosing the right type to fit your new driveway.
