FAQ: Your Questions, Answered Honestly
How long will my driveway last?
With professional installation and basic maintenance, resin and block paving can last 20+ years. Tarmac typically lasts 10–15 years with occasional sealing. Indian sandstone, when installed correctly, can last just as long and maintain its beauty.
What’s the most low-maintenance option?
Resin-bound driveways are by far the easiest to keep clean and weed-free. Indian sandstone requires occasional sealing to preserve its natural colour.
Will it flood? What about drainage?
We install proper drainage with every project. Resin-bound is permeable by design, and we also use soakaways or channels where needed.
How long does installation take?
Most projects are completed in 2–5 days, depending on the size and surface type.
Can I customise the look?
Yes. Especially with resin, block paving, and Indian sandstone, you’ll have plenty of design choices.
Is it environmentally friendly?
Yes. Resin-bound systems are SuDS-compliant and reduce surface water runoff. Indian sandstone is a natural material and can be sustainably sourced.
