Maintaining VUBA Resin Surfaces

To keep your VUBA resin-bound surface in top condition, regular cleaning is essential, 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 disturbing the aggregates.

Oil, Dirt & Debris
Oil spills, especially from lubricants or fuel, can quickly penetrate the surface. Promptly cleaning spills with an absorbent material can help prevent staining. For stubborn stains, use an emulsifying degreaser. Avoid prolonged use of harsh solvents, and consult VUBA for advice on particularly difficult stains.

Weeds, Moss & Lichen
A permeable membrane beneath the resin surface helps prevent weed growth from below. While weeds may still grow on the surface, they can be easily removed with a jet wash. Moss, lichen, and algae may develop in shaded or tree-covered areas; these can be treated with appropriate products, following the manufacturer’s guidelines.

Fruit, Berries & Leaves
Fallen fruit and leaves can stain any surface, including resin. Removing them quickly helps prevent discolouration. For already stained areas, 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, ensuring 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. Although rare, rust from pyrite can form when exposed to moisture. Use a non-acidic rust remover, following the manufacturer’s instructions, to treat rust stains. Tyre marks are usually removed with steam cleaning or scrubbing with hot water and detergent.

By following these maintenance tips, your VUBA resin-bound surface will remain 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 flow naturally through the surface. This SuDS-compliant (Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems) feature helps prevent flooding and water pooling. It's an environmentally friendly choice that reduces runoff and supports groundwater replenishment.

Durable and Long-Lasting
Resin-bound surfaces are highly durable, able to withstand heavy traffic without cracking or deteriorating. They resist common problems such as frost damage, weed growth, and the buildup of algae or moss, ensuring your driveway remains attractive and structurally sound over time.

Low Maintenance
One of the main advantages of resin-bound driveways is their low maintenance. Simple sweeping and occasional power washing are typically enough to keep them looking fresh. The smooth, non-porous surface prevents dirt and debris from accumulating, making cleaning quick and easy.

Slip-Resistant
Resin-bound surfaces offer natural slip resistance, making them a safe option for driveways and walkways, even in wet or icy conditions. This reduces the risk of accidents, making them ideal for homes in all climates.

Aesthetic Versatility
Available in a wide range of colours and textures, resin-bound aggregates provide endless design options. You can easily customise your driveway to complement your home’s aesthetic. The sleek, polished finish adds a modern touch, enhancing the overall curb appeal of your property.

Seamless Finish
The resin-bound system creates a smooth, seamless surface with no cracks or joints for weeds to grow through. This clean, uniform look offers a more refined appearance than traditional paving materials.

UV Stability
Resin-bound driveways use UV-stable resins, ensuring that the vibrant colours stay intact and don’t fade over time. This guarantees a long-lasting, visually appealing surface that maintains its beauty for years.

Quick Installation
Resin-bound surfaces can be installed relatively quickly compared to other paving options, minimizing disruption to your schedule. Typically, the surface is ready for use within 24 to 48 hours, allowing you to enjoy your new driveway without delay.

Cost-Effective
While the initial investment in resin-bound paving may be higher than some traditional options, its long-term durability, low maintenance, and aesthetic benefits make it a cost-effective solution in the long run.

Conclusion
Resin-bound aggregates blend functionality with style, offering a durable, low-maintenance, and eco-friendly option for modern driveways. With their versatility and long-lasting appeal, they provide an attractive and practical surface that enhances your home's exterior for years to come.
