Permeable, decorative resin bound
Smooth, permeable and virtually maintenance-free
Resin bound is a smooth, seamless surface made from natural aggregate and clear resin. It is fully permeable, so rainwater drains straight through, and it stays looking its best with very little upkeep.
We install resin bound driveways across Southampton and the surrounding area on a properly prepared base, giving you a decorative, low-maintenance finish that lasts for years. We use premium Daltex dried aggregates with UV-stable resin, so the colour stays true and the surface stays hard-wearing.
Why choose resin
One of the UK's most popular finishes
Why choose Resurfacing Contractors
A resin drive is only as good as what's underneath
We prepare a sound, free-draining base, set the correct falls, and lay resin bound at the right depth so it stays permeable, smooth and hard-wearing for years.
