The Importance of a Great Driveway

by Yorkshire Resin Resin Driveways & Surfaces Across All of Yorkshire

First impressions count, so the saying goes. Ergo, if your driveway is worried about creating a good first impression amongst passers-by on the street, then why not treat it to a bit of a facelift? You can do so by having a brand-new resin bound driveway installed!

Driveways age just like the rest of us and, with time, a once fresh-faced driveway can become pale, withered and rough around the edges. In which instance, the benefits of installing a resin drive surface will restore eternal youth to your driveway and thus help your front landscape to convey a sparkling first impression.

A Variety of Colour Options

A resin bonded drive not only makes aesthetic sense, it also has a range of other great benefits.

Flagstones are generally only available in a couple of colours (pink and yellow for some reason). Concrete is available in either light grey or dark grey; whilst grass has absolutely no brand diversification whatsoever and is ONLY available in green! This will not do. These are modern times for modern homeowners!

A resin drive surface is available in a range of colours (over 25) and can be designed to match the landscaping of your surrounding area. Thus, you can create a contemporary appearance that blends in with (and enhances) the features of your existing property and landscape.

Resin Drive Surface: Safety in a Lack of Flagstone Numbers

As well as offering little variety in terms of aesthetics, concrete and flagstones can also crack and wear away over time. This not only looks unappealing, but it also creates a slipping hazard, with flagstones in particular being prone to loosening and crackling, creating an unsecure and wobbly surface.

A Resin Bonded Drive is soft to the foot and the mixture is poured and set into your existing space. What this technique effectively creates in a singular stretch of resin that is shaped into your available surface area.

You won’t have to worry about each individual flagstone crackling at various points on your driveway because the chemical make-up of a resin bonded drive ensures that its permeable surface is resistant to all weather conditions and cracking in the long term.

Low Maintenance

In addition to the benefit of being the safest driveway surface option available, a resin bonded drive requires very little maintenance. Whereas all manner of dirt and rubbish can collect within the grooves of flagstones, a resin bound driveway requires little more than a sweep every couple of weeks so as to maintain it lustrous finish. This finish also won’t fade over time, as is the case with concrete and flagstone designs.

If your resin bonded drive is to be used for storing vehicles, then your mind can also rest easy that any potential oil leaks from these vehicles can be removed with general ease. Oil tends to seep into concrete and flagstones, thus permanently staining them and requiring a lot more than elbow grease to completely remove them.

Again, due to the chemical make-up of a resin drive surface, oil spills can simply be removed from a resin surface with hot soapy water and a stiff bristle brush.

Contemporary Driveway Solution

A well-designed driveway can create an important, aesthetically pleasing addition to the front of your home and thus add value to your property. By opting to install a resin bound driveway you will ensure that your driveway is contemporary, safe, durable and requires the minimal of maintenanc
