Resin Bound Driveway Installation: Quality Paving and Driveways Ltd

At Quality Paving and Driveways Ltd, we believe that a superior finish starts with meticulous preparation and expert installation. Resin bound driveway installation, here’s how we’ll create your perfect driveway:

1. Personal Consultation & Site Survey: It all begins with us listening to your vision. We’ll visit your property for a thorough site survey, discuss your requirements, assess the existing surface, and provide expert advice on the best solution for your needs and budget.

2. Meticulous Ground Preparation – The Key to Durability: This is the most critical stage. Our experienced team will ensure the foundation of your new driveway is flawless.

   • Existing Surface Assessment: We’ll determine if your current driveway base (tarmac or concrete) is suitable. If so, we’ll thoroughly clean and prepare it.

   • Expert Excavation (If Required): If a new sub-base is needed, we handle all excavation work with precision, removing the old surface and preparing the ground to the correct depths.

   • High-Quality Sub-Base Installation: We install robust, permeable (where required for SUDS compliance) sub-bases, such as MOT Type 3 aggregate, and compact them to industry-leading standards. We may then install a new tarmac or concrete base layer, ensuring it’s perfectly levelled and cured before the resin application.

   • Robust Edge Restraints: We install attractive and durable edging (e.g., blocks, setts, or contemporary metal edging) to frame your driveway beautifully and provide essential structural support.

3. Impeccable Surface Priming: Before laying the resin, we ensure the base is impeccably clean, completely dry, and, if necessary, primed to guarantee optimal adhesion of your new resin-bound surface.

4. The Perfect Mix: Premium Materials & Specialist Equipment:

   • Quality Materials, Guaranteed: We source our two-part UV-stable polyurethane resins and high-quality, dried aggregates from leading UK suppliers, ensuring consistency and longevity.

   • Precision Mixing: Our skilled technicians use specialist forced-action mixers – never standard cement mixers. Every batch of resin and aggregate is mixed to precise ratios and for exact timings, ensuring a consistent colour and a perfect, strong bond for your entire driveway.

5. Expert Hand-Trowelled Application: This is where true craftsmanship shines. Our experienced installation team will expertly pour and hand-trowel the resin-bound mixture to a smooth, compact, and uniform finish at the optimal depth (typically 18-20mm for driveways). We take immense pride in achieving a flawless surface, ensuring every edge and curve is perfect.

6. Curing & Professional Handover: Once laid, your new driveway needs to cure. We’ll cordon off the area and provide you with clear instructions on curing times (typically 24-48 hours for foot traffic and 48-72 hours for vehicles, temperature permitting). After curing, we’ll conduct a final inspection with you to ensure your complete satisfaction.
