Frequently Asked Questions.
Practical answers to the questions homeowners usually ask before choosing a resin-bound driveway.
When can I park on my new driveway?
It is normally recommended that a waiting period of 24-48 hours passes before driving or parking on your new driveway but walking across is fine after 2-3 hours.
Will you stay onsite until completion?
Yes, once we start your driveway installation we do not leave until it is completed to your satisfaction. Depending on the project, most driveways can be completed within 1-3 days and it is always our policy to complete one project before we start another.
Need permission for a dropped kerb?
Yes. If the crossing is to be positioned on a Principal Road or a Classified Road then planning permission must be obtained through the planning department. There is a charge for this service.
Which driveway surface lasts longest?
A correctly installed resin-bound driveway is a long-lasting option for homeowners who want a smooth, permeable, low-maintenance surface. The finished life depends on the sub-base, preparation, installation quality, and normal aftercare.
Best surface for a steep driveway?
Resin-bound driveway is the recommended surface type for a slope driveway.
Can resin bound go over my existing drive?
This depends on the type and condition of your existing driveway. It should be laid on an appropriate sub-base of either asphalt or concrete.
What type of driveway is best?
For many North East homes, resin-bound surfacing is a strong choice because it combines kerb appeal, permeability, slip resistance, and a smooth finish without loose stone scatter.
Need permission to convert a front garden?
There are particular guidelines for householders who want to pave over their front gardens in order to turn them into driveways. Planning permission is not needed for new driveways, regardless of the size, as long as the surfacing used is permeable. This porous surfacing allows water to drain through. Experts suggest using porous asphalt or permeable concrete block paving, or directing the rainwater to a lawn or border in order for it to drain naturally.
How long does resin bound last?
The life expectancy of a resin bound driveway is over 15 years.
Resin bound vs bonded: what's different?
One major difference between the two is that in a resin bonded system, the stone is only bonded to the resin on one side. In contrast, a resin bound driveway features a multi-layer stone surface, with a much smoother finish.
Can weeds grow through resin?
We say your new resin bound system is weed resistant rather than weed free. Whilst nothing will grow up through the surface, airborne seedlings may land on top, causing a small amount of growth. We recommend applying a weed killer once or twice a year if this should happen.
