Should you be considering a resin bound driveway installation, it’s important that you weigh up all of the resin-bound driveways pros and cons. Make sure that you consider all of the points below in order to help you make your final decision.
Use a reputable company – Using a renowned driveway installer or contractor is essential, while it may sound like a standard consideration, there’s no regulation when it comes to resin bound driveways, so make sure that you use a respectable firm who will help guarantee your installation. The new driveway installations that we provide are fully professional, you can trust Central Group. When it comes to a driveway makeover, doing it on the cheap is tempting and a resin-bound overlay can be around half the cost of a resin installation, but not all surfaces will be available for this type of installation.
The right type of resin – There’s a difference in the types of resin available for your new driveway, so if you’re going for a darker stone and want an overall darker finish, UV protection from the sun will be less of a concern. This is true if most of the area is shaded as the UV protection will be less important. If you are considering going for a lighter coloured stone and need a lighter resin finish, we recommend using a resin that provides UV protection.
Size of the stones and the drainage – Smaller stone aggregates don’t allow surface water to drain as easily as a larger stone will, so only use a smaller stone if drainage bedding or a drainage system is in place.
Maintenance – The maintenance of a resin bound drive installation can be easy to overlook, however we recommend that you don’t, the regular cleaning of a resin driveways will be the key to making sure that organic growth like moss and weeds don’t take hold, as well as not looking good as this can also become a slip hazard.
Heavy traffic – When it comes to heavy traffic, we recommend that you don’t use resin as a paving surface for your driveway if the area is heavily trafficked and vehicles regularly have to turn as frequent turning can cause resin to lift.
Visual appeal – Resin bound driveways are a modern looking driveway of choice and many stands out and look stunning, professional installation from Central Group can help to enhance the appearance of any property.
