Maintaining VUBA Resin Surfaces

Regular cleaning is crucial to keeping your VUBA resin-bound surface looking its best, especially for lighter colours where dirt is more noticeable. Power washing is effective, but be sure to hold the lance at a 90-degree angle and maintain a distance of at least 300mm to avoid dislodging the aggregates.

Oil, Dirt & Debris

Oil spills, especially from lubricants or fuel, can quickly penetrate hard surfaces. Remove spills promptly with an absorbent material to prevent staining. If stains persist, use an emulsifying degreaser. Avoid prolonged use of harsh solvents, and consult VUBA for guidance on stubborn stains.

Weeds, Moss & Lichen

A permeable membrane under the surface prevents weeds from growing up through the resin. Weeds can still grow on the surface but are easily removed with a jet wash. Moss, lichen, and algae may form in shaded or tree-covered areas and should be treated with suitable products, following the manufacturer's recommendations.

Fruit, Berries & Leaves

Fallen fruits and leaves can stain any paving surface, including resin. Clean these away promptly to avoid discolouration. For already soiled areas, use a cleaning solution made from 1.5 litres of liquid sodium hypochlorite (NaClO), 4.5 litres of water, and 100ml of a non-oxidising shampoo, like baby shampoo. Spray the solution evenly across the surface, scrub gently with a stiff brush, and rinse thoroughly, ensuring runoff does not affect surrounding plants.

Rust & Tyre Marks

Rust can form from metal objects like BBQs or hanging baskets, or from naturally occurring pyrite in the resin aggregates. Though rare, rusting from pyrite can occur when exposed to moisture. Treat rust stains with a non-acidic rust remover, following the manufacturer's instructions. Tyre marks can typically be removed by steam cleaning or scrubbing with hot water and detergent.

Following these steps will help maintain the pristine condition of your VUBA resin-bound surface for years to come.

Why Choose Resin Bound Aggregates For Your Driveway?

Choosing resin-bound aggregates for your driveway offers numerous practical and aesthetic advantages, making it a preferred option over traditional materials like sandstone, limestone, porcelain, or even composite decking. Here’s why it stands out:

Permeable and Eco-Friendly

Resin-bound driveways are fully permeable, allowing water to drain naturally through the surface. This makes them SuDS (Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems) compliant, helping to prevent water pooling and reduce the risk of flooding. It’s an environmentally responsible choice that minimizes water runoff and encourages groundwater recharge.

Durable and Long-Lasting

Resin-bound surfaces are exceptionally durable, withstanding heavy traffic without cracking or deterioration. They’re resistant to common problems such as frost damage, weed growth, and the spread of algae or moss, ensuring your driveway remains visually appealing and structurally sound over the years.

Low Maintenance

A key benefit of resin-bound driveways is their low maintenance requirements. Routine sweeping and occasional power washing are usually enough to keep them clean and fresh. The smooth, non-porous surface repels dirt and debris, making upkeep quick and simple.

Slip-Resistant

Naturally slip-resistant, even in wet conditions, resin-bound surfaces are a safe choice for driveways and pathways, reducing the likelihood of accidents during rain or ice.

Aesthetic Versatility

Resin-bound aggregates come in a variety of colours and textures, allowing you to tailor your driveway’s appearance to suit your home’s style. The sleek, polished finish adds a modern, sophisticated touch, enhancing your property’s curb appeal.

Seamless Finish

This system creates a smooth, seamless surface with no cracks or joints for weeds to grow through. The uniform finish gives a clean and polished look, offering a more refined appearance than traditional paving materials.

UV Stability

Resin-bound driveways use UV-stable resins that protect the surface from fading over time. This ensures that the colours remain vibrant and fresh, making it a long-lasting solution for maintaining your driveway’s appearance.

Quick Installation

Compared to other paving materials, resin-bound surfaces can be installed quickly, causing minimal disruption to your daily routine. Typically, the surface is ready for use within 24 to 48 hours after installation.

Cost-Effective

Although the initial cost of resin-bound paving may be higher than traditional options, its durability, low maintenance needs, and long-lasting appeal make it a cost-effective choice in the long run.

Conclusion

Resin-bound aggregates combine practicality with beauty. Their durability, low maintenance, eco-friendliness, and aesthetic flexibility make them an ideal choice for modern driveways, providing a lasting and visually appealing surface.
