Next up is the process of installing a resin driveway.
Sustainability and environmental impact
Resin driveways are a great choice for the environment. They use UV-stable resin systems to bind natural aggregates together. This makes them durable and reduces waste. Unlike block paving or gravel driveways, these surfaces do not need constant re-gravelling or re-sanding.
That means less material is used over time.
These driveways help with drainage too. Their permeable nature allows water to pass through easily, reducing run-off and flooding risks. The smooth surface prevents weed growth, which cuts down on maintenance needs.
Northern Driveways focuses on sustainable practices in resin driveway installation while enhancing outdoor aesthetics for each home project.
Differences from traditional driveways
Resin driveways are different from traditional types like block paving or gravel. They do not need constant re-gravelling or re-sanding. This makes them easier to maintain over time.
Resin-bound surfaces are smooth, which stops weed growth and cuts down on upkeep.
Traditional driveways can have loose stones or discolouration issues. In contrast, resin driveways use UV-stable resin systems that bind natural aggregates together well. These driveways need to be laid on open concrete or tarmac; they are only 18-20mm thick and permeable as well.
This ensures good drainage and helps with outdoor aesthetics too.

Permeable and textured paving
Permeable and textured paving is a smart choice for driveways. This type of surfacing allows water to pass through. It helps prevent flooding and reduces puddles. Resin-bound surfaces are designed to be smooth, making them easy to walk on or drive over.
The resin used in these designs binds natural aggregates together. This means they do not require constant re-gravelling like traditional driveways. The thickness of 18-20mm makes installation easier on open concrete or tarmac.
Textured finishes can add a decorative touch while providing grip, making the surface safe even when wet.
Ground stabilisation
Ground stabilisation is an important part of resin driveway installation. It helps keep the surface strong and level. This process uses materials that support the weight of vehicles without sinking or cracking.
Resin driveways need to be laid on open concrete or tarmac that allows water to pass through. The resin is only 18-20mm thick, making ground stabilisation key for durability. Proper preparation ensures a smooth finish and reduces maintenance needs over time.
Resin-bound surfaces also help prevent weed growth, which keeps driveways looking their best with less effort from homeowners.
Permeable resin bound paving
Permeable resin bound paving allows water to pass through. This feature helps reduce flooding and puddles. The resin binds natural aggregates together while still letting rainwater drain away.
It is a great choice for outdoor areas, including driveways.
Installing permeable surfaces is easy. They only need to be laid on open concrete or open tarmac, as the resins are 18-20mm thick. Unlike other types like block paving, they do not need constant re-gravelling or re-sanding.
This means lower maintenance over time and a smoother surface that prevents weed growth.
The Process of Installing a Resin Driveway
The first step is to prepare the ground. This includes digging and smoothing the area for a strong base. Next, skilled contractors mix and apply the resin carefully. They ensure an even layer for durability.
Finally, they add finishing touches and let it cure so it sets well.
Preparation and excavation
Preparation starts with clearing the area. This includes removing old surfaces, weeds, and debris. The team at Northern Driveways knows how to prepare your site correctly. They dig down to create a solid base for your new resin driveway.
Excavation involves digging deep enough to allow for the resin bound material. It needs to sit on open concrete or tarmac. This layer is only 18-20mm thick but must be stable. Proper prep helps avoid issues like loose stones later on.
Northern Driveways has over 25 years of experience in driveway installation, ensuring each project meets high standards.
Mixing and laying the resin
Mixing and laying the resin is a key part of installing a resin driveway. First, contractors use specialised UV-stable resin systems to bind natural aggregates together. They mix the resin and aggregates in large containers.
The mix needs to be uniform for best results.
After mixing, workers lay the resin onto a prepared surface. This surface must be open concrete or open tarmac since it should allow water to pass through easily. The thickness of the layer is about 18-20mm, which ensures good drainage and prevents issues like weed growth.
Once laid, they finish with final touches before curing begins on the new drive, leading us into more details about how this process works.
Final touches and curing
The final touches on a resin driveway are important. Once the resin is laid, it needs time to cure. Curing allows the material to harden properly. This process typically takes several hours to complete.
While curing, avoid driving or walking on the surface.
After curing, a smooth finish remains. This helps prevent weed growth and makes maintenance easier. Northern Driveways uses UV-stable resin systems, which keep colours bright and reduce discolouration over time.
With proper installation and care, your custom driveway will enhance outdoor aesthetics for years to come.
