Advantages of Resin Driveways

It is permeable which allows rainwater to drain away easily.
A well-laid driveway can look stunning and add kerb appeal and value to your Cambridge home.
It is low maintenance. You will not be on your hands and knees weeding or sweeping loose stones. All it requires is sweeping with a broom and the occasional wash with a pressure washer to keep it looking as good as new.
The excellent drainage properties mean that surface water and puddles are reduced. This therefore avoids flash flooding from water runoff that affects roads and other non-permeable surfaces.

Resin bonded surfaces do not react to extreme temperatures like other surfaces do. It will not start to melt and go sticky like tarmac. It doesn’t degrade in sunlight, or freeze in winter.

Because it is permeable, it allows the soil underneath to breathe. This prevents ‘heat islands’ where hard surfaces such as asphalt absorb and store heat.

You do not require planning permission to lay a Resin driveway. Since 2008, areas which are permeable or less than 5m² no longer require permission.

How much does a Resin driveway cost?

In general, a typical residential driveway will cost upwards of £50 per square metre. However, this does depend on the size and layout of your drive, the type and size of aggregate, the required depth, and the existing surface it is to be laid on. The larger the area to be paved, the less per square metre it costs to lay.

How long will it last?

This will obviously depend on the use, loads placed on and how well it is maintained. Whilst guarantees can vary, if you look after and maintain your new resin driveway it can last for 25 years or more.
