In recent years, resin bound driveways have become increasingly popular among homeowners across the UK, and Brighton is no exception. These driveways offer a sleek, modern appearance combined with excellent performance and durability. At Gladstone Paving Sussex, we’ve seen a significant rise in requests for resin bound installations, and it’s easy to understand why.
What Is a Resin Bound Driveway?
A resin bound surface is created by mixing natural aggregates with a clear UV-stable resin. This mixture is then trowelled onto a prepared base to create a smooth, seamless surface that is both porous and hard-wearing. The result is a highly attractive and practical driveway that can withstand the rigours of daily use.
The Key Benefits of Resin Bound Driveways
- Permeability: Resin bound surfaces are SUDS-compliant (Sustainable Drainage Systems), allowing rainwater to drain naturally. This helps reduce surface water and the risk of flooding.
- Low Maintenance: Unlike gravel or block paving, resin bound driveways don’t suffer from weed growth or shifting stones. They are easy to clean with just a quick hose-down or light pressure wash.
- Long-Lasting Finish: The UV-stable resin means your driveway won’t fade over time, even with Brighton’s coastal sunshine and salty air.
- Wide Range of Colours and Finishes: Choose from a variety of natural stone blends to match or complement your property’s style.
- Smooth, Safe Surface: The slip-resistant finish makes it suitable for vehicles, wheelchairs, bicycles, and pedestrians.
Ideal for Brighton’s Climate and Aesthetic
Brighton’s coastal climate demands robust, weather-resistant materials. Resin bound driveways are perfect for this, offering excellent performance even in wet conditions. Their seamless finish also complements both contemporary homes and traditional Brighton terraces.
With its vibrant, creative culture, Brighton homeowners often look for stylish and unique design choices. Resin bound driveways allow for personalisation in terms of colour, borders, and patterns, helping properties stand out.
