Maintaining VUBA Resin Surfaces

To keep your VUBA resin-bound surface in top condition, regular cleaning is essential, particularly for lighter colours where dirt is more noticeable. Power washing works well, but ensure the lance is held at a 90-degree angle and at least 300mm away to prevent dislodging the aggregates.

Oil, Dirt & Debris

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

Weeds, Moss & Lichen

A permeable membrane beneath the resin surface prevents weed growth from below. While weeds may still grow on the surface, they can easily be removed with a jet wash. Moss, lichen, and algae may form in shaded or tree-covered areas. Treat these with appropriate products, following the manufacturer's recommendations.

Fruit, Berries & Leaves

Fallen fruits and leaves can stain any paving surface, including resin. Promptly removing them will help prevent discolouration. For stained areas, use a cleaning solution of 1.5 litres of 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, gently scrub with a stiff brush, and thoroughly rinse, ensuring runoff does not damage nearby plants.

Rust & Tyre Marks

Rust may develop from metal objects like BBQs or hanging baskets, or from naturally occurring pyrite in the aggregates. Although rare, rusting from pyrite can happen when exposed to moisture. Use a non-acidic rust remover, following the manufacturer's guidelines, to treat rust stains. Tyre marks can typically be removed with steam cleaning or by scrubbing with hot water and detergent.

By following these maintenance tips, your VUBA resin-bound surface will remain in excellent condition 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 naturally drain through the surface. This feature makes them SuDS (Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems) compliant, reducing the risk of flooding and preventing water pooling. It’s an eco-friendly choice that minimizes water runoff and supports groundwater replenishment.

Durable and Long-Lasting

Resin-bound surfaces offer exceptional durability, handling heavy traffic without cracking or wearing down. They resist common issues such as frost damage, weed growth, and the spread of algae or moss, ensuring your driveway stays attractive and strong over time.

Low Maintenance

One of the standout benefits of resin-bound driveways is their low maintenance. Simple tasks like sweeping and occasional power washing are usually enough to keep the surface looking clean and fresh. The smooth, non-porous surface repels dirt and debris, making cleaning quick and easy.

Slip-Resistant

Resin-bound surfaces are naturally slip-resistant, even in wet conditions. This makes them a safe choice for driveways and pathways, helping to reduce the risk of accidents in rainy or icy weather.

Aesthetic Versatility

Resin-bound aggregates are available in a wide range of colours and textures, allowing you to customize the look of your driveway to complement your home. The sleek, polished finish adds a modern touch, enhancing the overall curb appeal of your property.

Seamless Finish

This paving system delivers a smooth, seamless surface with no cracks or joints for weeds to grow through. The clean, uniform appearance offers a more refined look compared to traditional paving materials.

UV Stability

High-quality resin-bound driveways use UV-stable resins, ensuring the colours remain vibrant and do not fade over time. This guarantees a long-lasting, aesthetically pleasing surface that maintains its fresh look for years.

Quick Installation

Resin-bound surfaces can be installed relatively quickly compared to other paving options, minimizing disruption. The surface is typically ready for use within 24 to 48 hours, allowing you to enjoy your new driveway in no time.

Cost-Effective

While the upfront cost of resin-bound paving may be higher than traditional options, its long-term durability, low maintenance, and aesthetic appeal make it a cost-effective investment.

Conclusion

Resin-bound aggregates offer a perfect blend of practicality and aesthetic appeal. With their durability, low maintenance, eco-friendliness, and versatile design options, they are an excellent choice for modern driveways, providing a long-lasting and visually striking surface.
