Very tough

It is important to be sure that your new driveway will last many years. The good news about resin driveways is that they are very durable and will last a lifetime. They are made from a combination of natural aggregates, stones, and glass. These driveways are resistant to water because resin is porous.

Resin driveways can be maintained well and last as long as 25 years. Concrete driveways tend to deteriorate more quickly than those made of other materials. Concrete can crack when put under stress, ruining driveway’s appearance. Elite Tarmac Drives guarantees that our driveways will last for at least ten years. This gives you peace of mind knowing your driveway will look great for many years to come. It can be expected to last longer with proper care.

Easy to maintain

Resin driveways can be maintained easily with routine cleaning and occasional jet washing. A stiff broom and a jet washer can be used to clean the driveway. This will remove any leaves or moss and will prevent future growth. Freeze spray can often be used to remove chewing gum from resin surfaces.

Water permeable

Resin bound driveways have a water permeable design which reduces the likelihood of surface water accumulation. Water can pass through the driveway to the ground beneath, where it is absorbed into earth. In many cases, flooding and puddles can be prevented by choosing a resin driveway. Major flooding events in the UK are becoming more common. It’s vital that we all take steps against surface runoff, particularly in urban areas. Other surface options like tarmac, concrete, or block paving are often non-permeable and more susceptible to being flooded.

Weed resistant

There are worse things than weeds growing in your driveway and ruining it’s appearance. The clever, cellular nature of resin bound driveways makes them weed-resistant. They’re also often treated before they are installed to make them resistant to weeds.

It is important to remember that they are not impervious to weeds. Sometimes small seeds can land on driveways, which can cause surface weeds such as scabs to grow. This can be avoided by regularly sweeping your driveway.

They are visually appealing

Your driveway should be the focal point of your house. If your driveway is pleasing to the eye, it will increase its value and make your property more valuable. We offer a wide range of resin driveways at Elite Tarmac Drives.

There are many colour options, as well as options for patterns, curves shapes, numbers, and numbers. You can be sure that your new driveway will suit your preferences and needs. For many years, we’ve helped homeowners achieve their dream driveways. With a high-quality resin driveway, we can transform your exterior in Sheffield or Doncaster.

Smooth and flat

Resin bound is an excellent choice for driveways because it offers a flat, safe finish. Once the aggregates have been combined, the mixture can be poured and hand-trowelled until it forms a smooth, seamless surface. This resin binding is ideal for driveways that require wheelchairs, pushchairs or bicycle access. Resin bound driveways can be used for a wide variety of purposes without fear of accidents or skidding. Resin driveways are not only popular for homes, but also for care homes, hospitals, schools, and other settings that require sufficient grip.

What should I choose between a resin bound and resin bonded driveway?

Resin bonded or resin bound are two options if you’re considering investing in a resin driveway. Although both types are often called the same, they actually have two distinct systems. They both use a mixture of resin and aggregates for surfaces. However, there are important differences. Resin is spread on the driveway with loose stones scattered on top. A resin bound driveway, on the other hand, requires that both resin and stone be mixed before being put in place.

Water permeability is what sets them apart. Resin bound driveways can be permeable, while resin bonded driveways cannot. Elite Tarmac Drives can offer resin bound or resin bonded surfacing. We will help you decide the best type of driveway for you.
