Maintaining VUBA Resin Surfaces

Keeping your resin-bound surface clean not only enhances its appearance but also helps prolong its lifespan—especially for lighter shades where dirt and marks are more noticeable. Regular care preserves both its pristine look and structural integrity.

General Cleaning Tips

Power washing is effective but must be done carefully. Always:

Hold the lance at a 90° angle to the surface.

Keep a minimum distance of 300mm to avoid dislodging the bound aggregate.

Common Issues & How to Treat Them

Oil, Fuel & Grease Stains: Act quickly when spills occur. Blot spills immediately with an absorbent cloth to reduce staining. For stubborn marks, use an emulsifying degreaser. Avoid prolonged contact with harsh solvents, and contact Vuba for advice on persistent or large stains.

Weeds, Moss & Algae: Thanks to the permeable membrane beneath, weed growth from below is minimal. However, surface growth can happen:

- Remove weeds using a pressure washer.

- Treat moss, lichen, or algae in damp or shaded spots with an appropriate biocide or cleaner, following product instructions carefully.

Organic Debris (Leaves, Berries, etc.): Organic matter left on the surface can cause staining over time. To treat stains, prepare this cleaning solution:

- 1.5 litres sodium hypochlorite (NaClO)

- 4.5 litres water

- 100ml gentle, non-oxidising shampoo (e.g., baby shampoo)

Apply with a pump sprayer, scrub with a stiff brush, then rinse thoroughly with clean water. Protect nearby plants and grass from runoff.

Rust Marks & Tyre Tracks: Rust stains may come from outdoor furniture, BBQs, or trace minerals like pyrite in the stone. Use a non-acidic rust remover according to instructions. Tyre marks can usually be removed with steam or a mix of hot water and mild detergent, applied with a stiff brush.

Long-Term Care for Optimal Performance

Regular sweeping, seasonal power washing, and prompt stain treatment will keep your resin-bound surface looking fresh and performing well for years. For personalised advice or tough stain removal, the Vuba team is always ready to assist.

Why Choose Resin Bound Aggregates For Your Driveway?

Resin-bound driveways are transforming outdoor spaces by blending sleek design, lasting durability, and practical convenience. As a contemporary alternative to Sandstone, Limestone, Porcelain, and Composite decking, here’s why they stand out:

Designed with safety in mind, these surfaces provide excellent grip, even in wet or icy conditions—ideal for families, elderly residents, or sloping driveways.

Customizable Style
With a vast range of aggregate colours, textures, and sizes, resin-bound paving lets you tailor your driveway to suit any aesthetic—from modern contrasts to classic blends that complement heritage homes.

Seamless, Weed-Free Finish
The continuous, joint-free surface not only looks sleek but also prevents weeds, shifting, and cracking—ensuring your driveway remains tidy and low-maintenance for years.

UV-Stable & Fade-Resistant
Thanks to UV-resistant resin, your driveway retains its vibrant colour and finish despite prolonged sun exposure—no fading or dulling over time.

Quick Installation, Instant Transformation
Typically installed and cured within 24 to 48 hours, resin-bound driveways offer a fast, hassle-free upgrade with lasting benefits.

Long-Term Value
While the upfront cost may be higher than traditional materials, their durability, minimal maintenance, and enhanced kerb appeal make resin-bound driveways a smart, cost-effective investment that adds real value to your property.
