Resin Driveways

A resin bound surface is a permeable, low maintenance surface.You can use a various number of different aggregates incorporated into the resin to create different looks.

Great looks and versatility with resin bound driveways

Our Driveways 4 You resin driveways are highly decorative, slip resistant and durable. Resin bound driveways are also UV stable and a versatile alternative to more traditional paving systems.
Resin Bound Driveway materials are a mixture of aggregate stones and resin which are used to pave driveways, pathways, patios, footpaths, walkways, pavements and car parks. Our system is permeable, comes in varying colours and is a flexible surfacing material which is highly resistant to cracking.

Resin bound driveways are permeable and meet the requirements of SUDs (sustainable urban drainage system), compliance removing the needs for linear drains and soakaways.
Periodic cleaning should be all the maintenance that is required to keep your Resin bound driveway looking good.

Resin bound driveways are quickly becoming the modern looking driveway of choice and they really stand out! There is a huge range of colour combinations available, which means you can have a resin bound driveway that compliments your home.

Resin Bound surfacing can transform your driveway, path or patio into something stunning and also increase your properties valuation. Resin bound paving materials are flexible and extremely strong with a life span of around 15-20 years depending on usage. They can be used on driveways, pathways, patios, swimming pool surrounds or any other install that has an adequate base.

One of the biggest attractions of resin bound surfacing is that they can be installed onto an existing tarmac or concrete driveway without the disruption and inconvenience of a full excavation. This means your driveway can be transformed into something stunning usually within two days.

How its installed

Resin bound paving is a mixture of aggregate and a polyurethane or epoxy resin. The two materials are mixed on site in a specialist forced action mixer and hand troweled onto a suitable solid base. The end result is a natural decorative gravel surface that’s extremely hard wearing, non-slip, permeable with very little maintenance – a welcome alternative to block paving.

Depths

Resin bound installs are laid to a minimum depth of 15mm for Paths, 18-20mm for Driveways and 6-8mm for internal use.

Curing time

Resin bound gravel paving curing time for foot traffic is 4-6 hours and 12 -24 hours for vehicular traffic.

What’s the difference between Resin Bound and Resin Bonded Driveway?

There are two different methods to install a resin driveway, Resin Bound and Resin Bonded. The Resin Bound method is a porous SuDS compliant method where the chosen aggregate is mixed in a forced action mixer with the two part resin. Once fully mixed the material is then hand trowelled onto the install base to a smooth finish with no loose stones.

The Resin Bonded method is a non porous install method that is also known as the scatter system. With this method of install a layer of resin is first applied to the install base and then the aggregate is scattered on top. Once the resin has fully cured and dry the remaining loose stones are removed.

Of the two installation methods one known as the Bound method is far better because the entire stone aggregate is covered in Resin whereas with the Bonded method only the bottom of the stone is in contact with the resin meaning there is potential for the stone to become loose. Make sure you choose a provider that knows the difference.

Driveways 4 You only installs the stronger and permeable Bound method.

Why Have A Resin Drive?

• Low Maintenance
• No Weeds
• Frost Resistant
• Can Be Laid Over Existing Suitable Base
• No Excavation
• No Planning Permission
• Huge Selection of Colours
• 10 Times More Eco Friendly Than Concrete
• UV Resistant
• Can Be Used Internally and Externally
• Wheelchair Friendly
• Extremely Durable
• SUDS Compliant
• Luxuriously elegant

When the aggregate and resin are correctly mixed each piece of stone is completely coated in the resin. This means all the stones are bonded together with very small gaps which allows water to drain through the product through to the sub-base. We can lay your brand new driveway or path over existing concrete or tarmac. If you currently have a gravel driveway or block paving we will need to install a new base for the Resin to be installed upon.

Our Resin bound paving comes with a 5 year guarantee, however the resin manufacturer suggests it will last in excess of 35 years. Our resin bound system adheres to the SUD’s process making the surface fully permeable with no threat to the environment. Each installation is individually priced and will be dependent on the size of the installation, if we are overlaying onto an already suitable base or if a new one needs to be created and if any additional work such as block edgings are required.

Please contact us by clicking CLICK HERE TO CALL and one of our team will be more than happy to provide you will a full and accurate free quotation. The aggregates we use in our Resin Bound installations come in a variety of different sizes and colours.

Here we have listed some of the most popular colour choices and they can also be mixed to create a unique colour if you want something different. We understand viewing an image on a computer or mobile device isn’t ideal so we have sample cases with all popular stones set in Resin for you to see in reality its finish.

Cobblestone Driveway Installations

Cobblestone driveways were one of the earliest styles for driveways. As manufacturers improve the quality of their products you can choose from natural cobblestone or manufactured cobblestone. The laying of cobblestone is really down to the style you have chosen and what the overall appearance you have planned. You can always opt for a fan or wave style of cobblestone pattern or you can choose a more traditional style laying it in an offset pattern.

An offset pattern installation of cobblestones can also be replicated using the Tegula style or natural cobble setts made up with granite stone. Having cobblestones installed on your driveway is not the cheapest option compared to block paving in Dublin. The reason for this excluding the extra price for the materials is the labour that is involved installing the cobblestones. Unlike block paving if you are opting for a fan pattern style, it all has to be laid individually by hand with no replicating pattern which makes it very difficult to lay at speed hence the labour cost increases.

Cobblestone Driveway and choosing the right materials

Choosing to lay the cobblestones in an offset staggered pattern speeds up the installation process on an average driveway, you can save more than two days work using this pattern style. This applies to an average driveway size of approximately 100 metres square. Larger sized driveways will impact it even more and smaller driveways less.

Another great addition to a cobble stone driveway is bordering or edging. You can choose a granite cobble stone border which is bedded in concrete or you can choose to use a tumbled paving kerb. You can learn more about our kerb options by giving us a call.

If you are opting for natural cobblestones versus manufactured style cobblestone, your colour choice will be very limited. Most natural stone is available in shades of grey, with options and darker and some gold mixes.

Opting for manufactured gives you a significant wider range of colours including red, black, charcoal, grey, brindle, burnt ochre and more.

Below, we will explain various examples of the different types of cobblestone paving that you choose for your driveway or patio. If you would like a free quote or to discuss your options please get in touch, our team at Driveways4You would love to hear from you. You can read all about our block paving installation choices with patterns.

Cost

Resiliency Driveway durability is among the chief concerns of our customers. Tarmac performs better than other materials (notably gravel), through seasonal extremes. A new installation, professionally installed, will normally have a shelf life for up to 15 years.

Here we will highlight the types and benefits of choosing one style a permeable driveway over the other. Regardless of the finished surface the base preparation is generally the same. Let’s first look at how permeable driveways work and what the base requirements are.

Permeable driveway functions by letting the surface water drain away back to its natural environment. The method by which this is done is called attenuation. The surface water is collected by the driveway and held in storage as its release back through the base and then back out into its own environment.

Permeable driveway functions by letting the surface water drain away back to its natural environment. The method by which this is done is called attenuation. The surface water is collected by the driveway and held in storage as its release back through the base and then back out into its own environment.

One of the biggest differences with the base installations is not just the depth but also the finished base the sub base material should have no fines in it this means you cannot use type 1 MOT and you should be using type 4 MOT hardcore. This type of foundation is significantly coarser and will allow the water to penetrate faster. In effect if you think of your base and imagine it like a porous sponge. It will soak up the water and gradually releases back into environment over a period of time.

There is effectively three layers that will be applied during installation of a permeable driveway, top layer will be your laying course which is generally a grit stone instead of river washed sand. The next layer underneath this will be your permeable sub base which would be Type 4 MOT or similar to allow the water to drain down fast.

The next layer will be your base layer which will be very coarse and will have gravel mixed through it. This will allow the water to enter this area very fast and store it to allow a slow release back. Now do we know what type of base installation will require we can look at what the finished surface will be. You have the option of block paving finish using permeable paving or you can opt for a gravel finish.

Permeable paving is very similar to having a standard block paved driveway. The biggest difference between the types of block paving is the edging which is designed to allow a bigger space between the gaps which is then filled with a grit instead of kiln dried sand. You can learn about laying block paving here.

The finished style and design can be whatever you choose as permeable paving like standard paving can be laid in a variety of styles colours and patterns. Once you have built your base correctly the water on your driveway should drain away very fast.

GRAVEL DRIVEWAYS

Opting for a gravel driveway or as is commonly known shingle, is also a very common style for a natural driveway. You have as with any gravel driveway the choice of using plastic stabilisers which help to keep the gravel in place otherwise we recommend a solid border or edging curb around driveway to hold it in place.

You can choose to combine permeable block paving with gravel creating a block paved apron as an entrance or a paving inset at your door or on the driveway. The two options are the best choices available on the market for a completely sustainable drainage system for your driveway.

You also have the choice of using Aco drains which when piped correctly can take away water to a designated area like a soak pit or drainage system. This type of system is commonly used in standard driveways or patios.

You would like to know more about a permeable driveway options or would like to discuss getting a new driver installed, we would love to hear from you.

Gravel driveways and paths are attractive, however being a loose material they will undoubtedly spread and scatter over time.

Customers seeking the strength and rigidity of a paved surface but with the aesthetic appeal of gravel can opt for a retained/gravel system. We have extensive experience in the installation of this type of driveway.

At Driveways 4 You we pride ourselves on a diverse product range. While the market is ever growing and evolving, there are four prime drive types. These include paving stones, asphalt, concrete … And gravel. All have their benefits. However, gravel is often favoured for its ease of application and low cost.

There are several types of gravel driveway. Popular options include limestone, granite and crushed shale. Some consumers opt for resin bound or bonded drives.

Let’s Explore The Pros And The Cons

Perhaps cost is your priority. Before you make your final decision, however, this page will outline the pros and cons of gravel. These include costs, maintenance and long term ROI.

The Economical Option

In various consumer surveys gravel has consistently been found to be the most thrifty material for your drive. Asphalt is a distant second. Imprinted concrete and pavers are significantly more expensive.

Long-Term Maintenance

This benefit is off set by long-term maintenance. In contrast to more expensive options, you’ll need to add additional gravel at least four years. Your drive will also require regular raking and the occasional application of herbicide to prevent plants and vegetation from appearing.

Long Term ROI

OUR DRIVEWAYS INSTALLATION PROCESS

Site Preparation

All our paving is laid on a firm, level and well drained base to ensure long term service and stability – getting the ground work right is essential. Vegetation and top soil is removed to an approximate depth of 200mm-250mm across the area to be paved. We mark out this area with pegs or retaining boards and adjust their height to the required finished surface levels, ensuring that we allow a fall of 1:80 away from any buildings and walls for surface drainage.

We also make sure that the finished paving surface level is at least 150mm (two brick courses) below the level of any damp proof course. After excavation, we rake level to ensure an even depth and compact the whole area using a plate compactor.

Kerbs / Brick on Edge (if required) The next stage is to set up edge restraints around the area to be paved (these may include existing walls) using block kerbs or concrete edging. The kerbs or concrete edgings are bedded into 100mm of concrete, to the required level, with a 45 degree haunch up the side of at least half the block or kerb height. This is essential to prevent the blocks and the sand on which they are laid from moving.

Underground drainage, Aco drains or similar drainage including inspection chambers are installed at this stage if required. The area is then to be back filled with Type 1 MOT hardcore. (Type 3 Hardcore is used for permeable surfaces).

Sub Base Installation

Onto this, a layer of river washed sand (grit sand is more free draining than normal sand and is less prone to being washed out) is applied, to the depth of 50mm, and then compacted with a plate compactor. A second layer of grit sand is then applied, to a depth of 20mm. This second layer of sand is leveled to the correct falls.

Laying The Paving

The laying of concrete block paving should always begin from the bottom of any slope, preferably starting from a right angle or a straight edge. Working from several packs at a time is essential when using a mixed size product such as cobble styled paving blocks.

We place the blocks on top of the laying course, ensuring they are around 4-5mm above the desired finished level. Once all full blocks are laid, we use a mechanical block splitter or a Con-saw to cut the blocks required for the infill pieces or at the retaining edges. Once completed, we sweep the area and compact with two or three passes of the plate compactor.

Jointing of the block paving is preferably completed in dry periods. We apply kiln dried sand to the block paved area, then brush into the joints using a soft brush, ensuring the joints are filled fully.

Applying the kiln dried sand

We use the vibrating whacker plate on the paved area again, to push the sand into the joints. Once this has been done, we check for any gaps in the jointing and fill where necessary, compacting again afterwards if needed. The sand in the joints may need to be topped up for the first few months after the job is completed.
