Maintaining VUBA Resin Surfaces

To maintain your VUBA resin-bound surface in excellent condition, regular cleaning is key, especially for lighter colours where dirt is more visible. Power washing is effective, but ensure the lance is held at a 90-degree angle and at least 300mm away to avoid disturbing the aggregates.

Oil, Dirt & Debris

Oil spills, particularly from lubricants or fuel, can quickly seep into hard surfaces. Promptly clean up spills with an absorbent material to prevent staining. For persistent stains, use an emulsifying degreaser. Avoid prolonged use of harsh solvents, and consult VUBA for guidance on removing tough stains.

Weeds, Moss & Lichen

A permeable membrane beneath the resin surface helps block weed growth from underneath. Weeds may still grow on top of the surface, but they can be easily removed with a jet wash. Moss, lichen, and algae may appear in shaded or tree-covered areas; these can be treated with appropriate products, following the manufacturer's instructions.

Fruit, Berries & Leaves

Fallen fruit and leaves can stain any surface, including resin. Quickly removing them helps prevent discolouration. For areas already stained, use a cleaning mixture of 1.5 litres of sodium hypochlorite (NaClO), 4.5 litres of water, and 100ml of a non-oxidising shampoo, such as baby shampoo. Apply the solution evenly, scrub gently with a stiff brush, and thoroughly rinse, making sure the runoff doesn't harm nearby plants.

Rust & Tyre Marks

Rust can develop from metal items like BBQs or hanging baskets, or from naturally occurring pyrite in the aggregates. While rare, rust from pyrite can form when exposed to moisture. Treat rust stains with a non-acidic rust remover, following the manufacturer’s instructions. Tyre marks are usually removed with steam cleaning or scrubbing with hot water and detergent.

By following these tips, your VUBA resin-bound surface will stay looking pristine 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 reduce the risk of flooding and preventing water pooling. It's an environmentally friendly option that minimizes runoff and promotes groundwater replenishment.

Durable and Long-Lasting

Resin-bound surfaces are extremely durable, capable of withstanding heavy traffic without cracking or wearing down. They resist common issues like frost damage, weed growth, and the buildup of algae or moss, keeping your driveway looking great and structurally sound over time.

Low Maintenance

A key benefit of resin-bound driveways is their low maintenance requirements. Routine sweeping and occasional power washing are typically enough to maintain their clean, fresh appearance. The smooth, non-porous surface prevents dirt and debris from settling, making cleaning fast and easy.

Slip-Resistant

Naturally slip-resistant, resin-bound surfaces are a safe choice for driveways and walkways, even in wet conditions. This reduces the risk of accidents in rainy or icy weather, making it a practical option for homes in all climates.

Aesthetic Versatility

Available in a wide variety of colours and textures, resin-bound aggregates offer endless design possibilities. You can easily customise the look of your driveway to match your home’s style. The sleek, polished finish adds a contemporary, sophisticated touch, boosting your property’s curb appeal.

Seamless Finish

The resin-bound system provides a smooth, seamless surface without cracks or joints for weeds to grow through. The even, polished look offers a more elegant appearance than traditional paving materials.

UV Stability

Using UV-stable resins ensures that resin-bound driveways maintain their vibrant colours without fading over time. This guarantees a long-lasting, beautiful surface that remains visually appealing for years to come.

Quick Installation

Compared to other paving options, resin-bound surfaces can be installed quickly, minimizing disruption to your routine. Typically, the surface is ready for use within 24 to 48 hours, allowing you to enjoy your new driveway almost immediately.

Cost-Effective

Though the initial cost of resin-bound paving may be higher than some traditional materials, its durability, low maintenance, and aesthetic advantages make it a cost-effective choice in the long run.

Conclusion

Resin-bound aggregates combine functionality and style, offering a durable, low-maintenance, and eco-friendly solution for modern driveways. With their versatility and long-lasting appeal, they provide a striking and practical surface that enhances your home’s exterior for years.
