Resin Bound Driveways & Pathways

UNIQUE RESIN-BOUND DRIVEWAY DESIGN

Our clients in Braintree wanted to replace their existing driveway with a modern resin-bound design that would compliment their home.

This resin-bound drive and pathway installation feature a double border edge and a unique compass star design in the centre of the driveway.

We used aluminium trim to achieve a clean, sharp finish to the borders and star. The trim acts as a retainer for the resin, holding its position and allowing us to create smooth and precise lines.

Materials used in this installation:

Primary colour:

Nordic Grey

Border colour:

Winter Quartz with thin Basalt Black contrasting line

Star Design:

Black and Galaxy

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I clean a resin bound surface?

A simple sweep with a stiff broom will remove debris. For deeper cleaning, use a pressure washer with a fan-type lance, keeping at least 200mm from the surface to avoid damage. Avoid turbo nozzles or high-pressure jets in one spot.

Resin bound surfaces are resistant to weed growth, but wind-blown seeds may settle on the surface. Regular brushing and occasional power washing will help prevent this. If needed, apply a mild weed killer that’s safe for resin.

For oil spills, clean the area as soon as possible using a biodegradable oil remover, followed by a rinse with warm water. Avoid harsh solvents or bleach, as they may discolour or damage the surface.

Yes – rock salt or standard de-icing products are safe to use on resin bound surfaces during cold weather. These won't damage the resin and will help maintain grip in icy conditions.

We recommend light maintenance every few months, including brushing, washing, and checking for any debris or algae in shaded areas. This will keep the surface looking clean and performing as intended for years to come.
