Resin bound driveways are a modern and stylish surfacing option crafted by mixing natural aggregates with a high-quality, UV-stable resin. This mixture is then hand-trowelled onto a prepared surface to create a seamless, durable, and visually appealing finish. Perfect for the diverse weather conditions of Glasgow and the surrounding areas, resin bound surfaces resist cracking in cold temperatures and retain their appearance in rainy climates. Their porous nature ensures efficient drainage, reducing surface water and pooling, which is particularly beneficial in Scotland’s wetter months.

While resin bound surfacing is most commonly used for driveways and pathways, it is equally suitable for patios, courtyards, and even commercial spaces like car parks. Its versatility comes from the combination of durability and aesthetic appeal, making it an ideal choice for homeowners looking to enhance their property’s curb appeal. Resin bound surfaces are slip-resistant and robust, making them suitable for areas with frequent foot and vehicle traffic. Their customisable nature allows you to choose from a variety of colours and finishes, ensuring a design that complements your home.
Resin bound surfaces offer several advantages over traditional materials such as concrete, tarmac, or block paving:
- Aesthetics: With a wide range of colour and texture options, resin bound surfaces provide a high-end, bespoke appearance.
- Durability: They are hard-wearing and resistant to wear and tear, making them perfect for busy driveways.
- Permeability: Their porous structure allows water to drain through, helping to prevent flooding and meet sustainable drainage requirements (SuDS).
- Low Maintenance: Unlike block paving, which can encourage weed growth, resin bound surfaces require minimal upkeep to retain their pristine look.
- Eco-Friendly: Many of the materials used are natural and sustainable, and the installation process produces minimal waste.
