Resin Driveways in Great BarrResin Bound & Bond Driveway installation Services
Resin bound and resin bond driveways, paths and patios have become more and more popular with Great Barr homeowners. A number of people choose to have a resin bound & bonded installation to improve the look of their existing driveway and, in the case of resin bound, to aid with water drainage. Resin paving material can be used for other purposes as well, such as pathways, access roads, pool surrounds and patios, as it is versatile and strong, yet also flat and even.

What’s the difference between the two types of Resin Driveway in Great Barr?
There are two main techniques for using resin in Great Barr driveways. Despite the similar names, there are some important differences:
- Resin Bound Driveways - this involves the resin and aggregate being mixed prior to application. The mixture is then spread evenly across the chosen surface, drying to a very solid and even finish. A big advantage of this technique is that the drive remains completely water-permeable.
- Resin Bonded Driveways - this technique involves resin first applied over the driveway, then a subsequent layer of loose stone pressed into the top surface. This is a quicker and cheaper process but can often lead to loose chippings and an uneven finish. There is an added disadvantage that the drive will no longer be permeable.
At Pure Driveways we offer both types of resin driveway in Great Barr B43, although we highly recommend resin bound for best results.

FAQS – Resin Driveways in Great Barr
We say your new resin bound system is weed resistant rather than weed free. Whilst nothing will grow up through the surface, air born seedlings may land on top, causing a small amount of growth. We recommend applying a weed killer once or twice a year if this should happen. A new driveway must be at least 10ft to 12ft wide (3m to 3.6m), as anything smaller will present challenges for drivers. Resin-bound driveway is the recommended surface type for a sloping driveway It is normally recommended that a waiting period of 24-48 hours passes before driving or parking on your new driveway but walking across is fine after 2-3 hours. Permeable surfaces (also known as porous or pervious surfaces) allow water to percolate into the soil and filter out pollutants, recharging the water table. Tarmac/Asphalt, Resin Bound, Gravel/Shingle and Block Paving are all classes as permeable surfaces. The life expectancy of a resin bound driveway is over 15 years. This depends on the type and condition of your existing driveway. It should be laid on an appropriate sub-base of either asphalt or concrete. One major difference between the two is that in a resin bonded system, the stone is only bonded to the resin on one side. In contrast, a resin bound driveway features a multi-layer stone surface, with a much smoother finish.
