Resin Bound Surfacing Installation Procedure

How are resin driveways installed?

Costs, design, installation, drying time and more

We've been installing resin drives for homes and businesses for over a decade, and our firm's reputation has grown organically. In previous years, we have conducted assessments with many different techniques; however, this particular approach has proven to be the most effective. The process usually starts with a preliminary inspection, followed by surface preparation, bordering, blending resin, applying the resin, and wrapping up with finishing touches. Keep reading to see how our step-by-step process will unfold, with photos.

Phase 1: Preparing the Area

Depending on the condition of your present drive, this first step may look slightly different.

There are a number of alternative cases: we can either reuse the present frame as the base, or we might have to build a whole new base from the bottom up.

In the picture located below, we used the majority of the drive that was already there as a starting point. When a fresh surface is required, permeable concrete or tarmac tend to be the most suitable choices.

Below are some photographs to illustrate the configuration of the base that we were able to reuse:

Following the prep

We needed to build a new base made from porous tarmac for the rest of the drive. Check out the example below:

Phase 2: Laying The Resin Aggregate

After finishing the preparation phase, we are now able to lay down the resin blend, this phase entirely refreshes the driveway, and gives it a new lease of life.

Please see the below photos:

Phase 3: Permit time for curing

The driveway is almost finished and has been revived completely. The resin mixture generally requires an average of 8 plus hours to dry; however, we would strongly advise offering a period of 24–48 hours before stepping foot on it, and 48 hours before parking your car on the area.

To show you how amazing our transformation really is, we've got a number of photos from the very beginning to the very end. We are extremely enthusiastic about the restoration of driveways, which is most definitely an art skill.
