Resin Driveways
As resin bound specialists in the South West for decades, we firmly believe that a resin bound driveway is currently the most cost-effective way of creating a driveway that is low maintenance, long lasting and has minimal environmental impact.
Resin Pathways
Allow a high-end look that is non-slip for safety and virtually maintenance free. Your path or patio is easily kept clean and looking good as new with just a simple sweep and an occasional wash.

Resin bound surfaces are also eco-friendly in nature too thanks to their natural properties and use of recycled materials. All of our materials used are natural and responsibly sourced.

How We Work
Throughout the whole job, we understand that you’re going to have questions. We’re here to reassure you throughout the entire job and answer any questions you may have.
Here is how a typical resin quote and installation goes from start to finish so you know what to expect from how we work.
Free Quote & Site Survey
Our experienced, reliable team will meet you at your property to discuss and carry out a free survey of the site. This gives you the opportunity to learn more about our work, the process and for us to be able to provide your free no-obligation quote.
We will be assessing:
- Existing ground type
- Drainage
We’ll have an open, friendly discussion with you based on what we think can be achieved in line with your ideas and vision, while offering our advice on what is most cost-effective and the realities of the project.
Your Quote & Timeline
At this point we’ll discuss with you a realistic timeframe for us to be able to start the project, and an estimate on how long it will take for us to complete.
We’ll then discuss finer details, and will return for a further more in-depth survey if required, while also carrying out a risk assessment for the team.
Do I need to pay a deposit?
- Upon accepting your quotation we request 50% deposit upfront to secure your job in our schedule.
Preparation of Existing Surfaces
A quality finish on any resin driveway, path or patio installation, or any type of exterior property work, is only as good as the initial existing surface that it is installed upon.
We take the time to ensure all existing surfaces are clean, free from contamination and that excavation and groundwork repairs are carried out to a suitable finish in order to achieve the results that meet your high expectations.
Resin Installation
Once the groundworks have been completed, drainage has been taken care of if required, and all the necessary preparation has been carried out to suitable standards, the sub base is then laid in accordance to the specification outlined in the original quotation.
After this, the real transformation begins. Now that the sub-base is perfected it’s time to mix your chosen aggregate and our specially formulated resin to be able to lay on top and create that smooth, picture-perfect finish. You’ll be able to see the mixture before installation to make sure you’re still happy with your selection – our team of experts will advise you on how different it can look in a small batch versus on a larger scale.
Our experienced team will ensure your resin and aggregate mixture is laid uniformly and adheres to the correct depths stipulated by manufacturers to ensure a quality finish that stands the test of time.
Job Done
When your resin driveway, path or patio is complete we’ll cordon off the area and advise you not to walk on the surface for at least 12 hours. Vehicles must wait a further 60 hours minimum (we recommend three days total starting from the day after installation).
All clean up is carried out so that your property looks like nobody was ever there.
After this, we’ll check back in with you to make sure the finish is as it should be, and that you’re entirely satisfied with the final result.
- On completion of work, we would then require the final 50% of the payment.
