Maintaining VUBA Resin Surfaces

Maintain the look and longevity of your resin-bound surface with regular care—especially important for lighter colours that may show dirt or stains more easily. With simple, consistent maintenance, your surface will stay looking its best and performing reliably for years to come.

General Maintenance Tips

Jet Washing: Pressure washing is effective, but must be done with care:

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

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

Common Issues & How to Treat Them

1) Oil, Fuel & Grease Stains: Quick action is key:

Blot fresh spills immediately with an absorbent cloth.

Use an emulsifying degreaser for stubborn residues.

Avoid strong solvents; for large or stubborn stains, contact the Vuba technical team for expert advice.

2) Weeds, Moss & Algae: While growth from below is rare, surface buildup can happen:

Remove weeds using a pressure washer.

Treat moss and algae in shaded or damp areas with an appropriate product—follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully.

3) Organic Debris (Leaves, Berries, etc.): Natural debris can cause staining if left to decay:

Use the following cleaning solution:

1.5L sodium hypochlorite (NaClO)

4.5L clean water

100ml gentle shampoo (non-oxidising, like baby shampoo)

Apply with a pump sprayer, scrub with a stiff brush, and rinse thoroughly. Avoid runoff onto nearby plants or grass.

Rust Stains & Tyre Marks

Rust can come from garden furniture or trace minerals. Use a non-acidic rust remover according to instructions.

Tyre marks can be removed with steam cleaning or hot water mixed with a mild detergent and a stiff brush.

Long-Term Care Tips

Sweep regularly to remove dust, debris, and leaves.

Power wash seasonally to refresh the surface.

Treat stains promptly to prevent permanent discolouration.

Why Choose Resin Bound Aggregates For Your Driveway?

Resin-bound surfaces are redefining modern landscaping—offering a sleek, contemporary alternative to traditional options like sandstone, limestone, porcelain, or composite decking. With their combination of style, strength, and sustainability, it’s easy to see why homeowners are making the switch.

Sustainable and Permeable

Resin-bound driveways are fully SuDS-compliant, allowing water to naturally drain through the surface. This reduces surface runoff, helps prevent flooding, and supports groundwater recharge—delivering a sustainable solution that looks great and performs even better.

Durability You Can Rely On

Built to withstand heavy foot traffic and daily wear, resin-bound surfaces resist:

Cracking

Frost damage

Weed and algae growth

From driveways to patios and pathways, they’re designed for long-term resilience in any setting.

Low Maintenance, High Reward

Say goodbye to time-consuming upkeep. Resin-bound surfaces require minimal maintenance—just occasional sweeping and low-pressure cleaning to maintain their clean, fresh appearance.

All-Weather Safety

Thanks to their naturally slip-resistant finish, resin-bound driveways offer excellent grip in both wet and icy conditions. They’re ideal for families, elderly residents, and homes with sloped access or heavy use.

Custom Colours & Finishes

Choose from a wide palette of aggregate colours, sizes, and textures to create a surface that complements your home. Whether you’re after a bold, modern look or something more traditional, resin-bound allows for true design freedom.

Smooth, Seamless, Weed-Free

Forget the shifting and splitting that comes with block paving or slabs. A resin-bound surface is smooth and joint-free, which means no weed growth and a cleaner, more refined look that lasts.

UV-Stable & Colour-Fast

Formulated with UV-stable resins, these surfaces won’t fade or yellow over time—preserving their vibrant finish through years of sun exposure.

Fast Installation

Most resin-bound projects are completed within 24–48 hours, meaning minimal disruption and a swift transformation of your outdoor space.

A Long-Term Investment

While the initial cost may be higher than some alternatives, resin-bound driveways offer a great return. With long-lasting performance, minimal maintenance, and strong kerb appeal, they add real value to your home.

In Summary:
Resin-bound driveways deliver the ideal mix of beauty, durability, and eco-conscious design. Whether you’re upgrading your entrance or overhauling outdoor areas, this premium surface offers a future-proof solution that’s built to impress and built to last.
