Resin Driveways vs The Rest

How does a resin bound system stack up against traditional block paving, tarmac, or gravel? Read our direct comparisons to make an informed choice.

Resin vs Block Paving

Block paving is the traditional choice for premium driveways, but it has one major flaw: the sand-filled joints. Within two years, weeds take root in the joints, moss grows in the shadows, and ants excavate the sand. You are committed to a cycle of pressure washing and re-sanding every summer.

Resin bound is completely seamless. No joints means no weeds. Read the full comparison.

Resin vs Tarmac

Tarmac is practical and relatively cheap, but it lacks kerb appeal. It is always black, it softens in extreme summer heat, and it is not permeable (requiring separate drainage). Resin offers the durability of tarmac but in over 40 beautiful natural stone colours, and it is fully porous. Read the full comparison.

Resin vs Gravel

Loose gravel is the cheapest surfacing option, but it requires constant maintenance. It spreads onto the road, dips where car tyres turn, and cats treat it as a litter box. Resin bound surfacing was literally invented to solve this problem: it gives the beautiful appearance of natural stone gravel, but it is bound solid with clear resin. Read the full comparison.
