Why Choose FLEX PROPERTY SERVICES For Your Resin Bound Driveway?

The Benefits of UV Stable Resin Surfacing

Choosing the right material for your driveway is a major decision. Resin bound systems have surged in popularity, and for good reason. They offer a flawless, smooth finish that is as durable as it is attractive.Exceptional Durability: Our high-grade, UV stable resin ensures your driveway will not fade, yellow, or crack under harsh sunlight or freezing temperatures.Seamless Aesthetics: With a wide range of aggregate surfacing colours and textures available, we can create custom blends, borders, and patterns tailored to your taste.Weed and Frost Resistance: The solid yet porous nature of a resin bond surface naturally suppresses weed growth and resists winter frost damage.Low Maintenance: A simple sweep and occasional wash are all it takes to keep your driveway looking pristine year-round.

Our Professional Installation Process

A resin driveway is only as good as the sub-base beneath it. Our experienced team manages every stage of the project with absolute precision, ensuring a flawless finish that lasts for decades.First, our professional groundworks team will excavate and prepare the area, ensuring a solid, load-bearing foundation. If an existing tarmac or concrete base is in excellent condition, we can often lay the resin directly over it, saving you time and money. Next, we install any necessary edging and drainage systems.Finally, we mix the natural aggregate stones with our premium polyurethane resin in a forced action mixer. This mixture is then hand-trowelled to a perfectly smooth, level finish. Because we manage the entire process from groundwork to the final pour, you are guaranteed a seamless, hassle-free installation.

Fully SuDS Compliant and Regulated

Navigating local building regulations can be stressful, but our team ensures your new driveway is fully compliant from day one. Our resin bound driveways are entirely SuDS (Sustainable Drainage Systems) compliant. This means the surface acts as permeable paving, allowing rainwater to drain naturally through the surface and safely into the ground below.Because the surface is permeable, you will not need to apply for planning permission to install or extend your driveway in Kesgrave. Furthermore, FLEX PROPERTY SERVICES operates with £10 million public liability insurance, giving you total peace of mind that your property is protected throughout the build.

Are Resin Bound Driveways Truly Permeable?

This is one of the most common questions we receive from homeowners looking to upgrade their driveways. The answer is yes, provided they are installed correctly. Because the aggregate stones are coated in resin and packed together, small voids remain between the stones.These microscopic gaps allow water to pass straight through the surface rather than pooling on top. When paired with a porous sub-base or a dedicated soakaway system, this eliminates standing water, reduces the risk of local flooding, and prevents dangerous ice patches from forming during the winter months.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our resin bound driveway installations in Felixstowe & Suffolk

Are resin driveways slippery when wet?

+

Not at all. During the installation process, we can add a fine clear aggregate (often called crushed glass or sand) to the top layer. This increases the "anti-slip" properties of the surface without changing its appearance, making it safe for both cars and pedestrians even in the rain.

Can you lay resin over my existing concrete or tarmac?

+

In many cases, yes. If your existing driveway is in good condition, crack-free, and stable, we can often use it as a base. This can save money on excavation costs. However, we will always inspect the site first to make sure the base is strong enough to prevent the resin from cracking later on.

How do I clean my resin bound driveway?

+

Maintenance is very simple. A regular sweep with a stiff brush to remove leaves and debris is usually enough. For a deeper clean, you can use a domestic pressure washer on a low setting. Because the surface is resistant to oil spills and petrol, most marks can be washed away with a bit of soapy water.

How long does a resin driveway last?

+

When installed correctly with a high-quality UV-stable resin and a solid base, you can expect your driveway to last 15 to 25 years. We use premium materials designed to withstand the British weather and heavy daily use.

Does resin bound surfacing require planning permission?

+

Since resin bound surfacing is permeable and SuDS compliant, it typically does not require planning permission. This is because it allows water to drain into the sub-base rather than adding to the load on the public sewers. We can advise you on the specific requirements for your property during our initial visit.

Can you lay resin over my existing concrete driveway?

+

Often, yes. If your existing concrete or tarmac is in good condition and structurally sound, we can often apply a resin bound layer directly on top. We will inspect the base during our initial visit to see if this is a viable, cost-effective option for you.

How long does a resin bound driveway last?

+

When installed correctly with a proper sub-base, you can expect a resin bound driveway to last 15 to 25 years. Using UV-stable resin is vital here, as it prevents the binder from becoming brittle and cracking over time.

Is it the same as resin bonded surfacing?

+

No, they are quite different. Resin bonded is where resin is spread over a base and stones are scattered on top; it is not permeable and can lose stones over time. Resin bound (which we offer) involves mixing the stones and resin together before laying, creating a smooth, porous, and much more durable finish.

How do I clean my new driveway?

+

It is very simple. A regular sweep with a stiff brush will remove leaves and dirt. If you want to give it a deep clean, a light power wash with cold water will do the trick. Just avoid using boiling water or very high-pressure industrial washers too close to the surface.
