Maintaining VUBA Resin Surfaces

Routine cleaning is essential for preserving the look and longevity of your VUBA resin-bound surface—particularly with lighter colours, where dirt and debris are more visible. Power washing works well, but be sure to keep the lance at a 90° angle and maintain a distance of at least 300mm to avoid disturbing the aggregate layer.

Oil, Dirt & General Debris
Fuel or lubricant spills can quickly seep into the surface. For best results, act immediately—blot spills with an absorbent material to prevent permanent staining. For stubborn marks, use an emulsifying degreaser. Avoid extended contact with strong solvents, and reach out to VUBA for help with persistent stains.

Weeds, Moss & Lichen
While a permeable membrane beneath the surface helps prevent weeds from growing up through the resin, surface-level growth may still occur. These can be cleared with a pressure washer. In shaded or damp areas, moss, lichen, or algae may develop—treat with suitable cleaning agents following the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Leaves, Berries & Organic Matter
Fallen leaves and fruit can cause stains if not removed promptly. For existing organic stains, try this effective cleaning solution:

1.5 litres of sodium hypochlorite (NaClO)

4.5 litres of water

100ml of a gentle, non-oxidising shampoo (such as baby shampoo)

Apply using a pump sprayer, lightly scrub with a stiff brush, then rinse thoroughly with clean water—taking care that the runoff does not affect nearby plants or lawns.

Rust Stains & Tyre Marks
Rust may appear from items like garden furniture, BBQs, or in rare cases, from pyrite within the aggregate. Treat any rust marks with a non-acidic rust remover as directed by the product instructions. Tyre marks can generally be removed with steam cleaning or by scrubbing the area with hot water and a mild detergent.

Why Choose Resin Bound Aggregates For Your Driveway?

Combining sleek style, outstanding durability, and everyday functionality, resin-bound driveways are fast becoming the go-to alternative to traditional materials like Sandstone, Limestone, Porcelain, and Composite decking. Here’s what makes them stand out:

Sustainable & Fully Permeable
Resin-bound driveways are SuDS-compliant (Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems), allowing rainwater to drain naturally through the surface. This eco-friendly design reduces runoff, prevents flooding, and supports groundwater replenishment—making it as smart as it is sustainable.

Made to Endure
Built for strength, resin-bound surfaces withstand heavy vehicle and foot traffic without cracking or degrading. They resist frost damage, weeds, and algae, delivering reliable performance through every season.

Low-Maintenance Living
Thanks to their smooth, sealed finish, these surfaces are incredibly easy to care for. Regular sweeping and the occasional power wash are all it takes to keep them looking like new—no sealing or special treatments required.

Safe Underfoot
Naturally slip-resistant, even in wet or icy conditions, resin-bound driveways enhance safety for driveways, pathways, and family homes alike.

Customisable Curb Appeal
With a wide variety of colours, aggregate sizes, and finishes to choose from, resin-bound paving offers full design flexibility. Whether your style is modern or traditional, you can achieve a seamless look that complements your home beautifully.

Seamless, Weed-Resistant Finish
The joint-free, continuous surface not only looks elegant but also prevents weed growth and eliminates cracks—keeping your driveway neat and tidy year after year.

UV-Stable & Fade-Resistant
Formulated with UV-stable resin, these surfaces retain their colour and finish even with long-term sun exposure. Your driveway stays vibrant and visually striking for the long haul.

Fast Installation, Long-Term Results
Most resin-bound driveways can be installed and ready for use within 24 to 48 hours—offering a quick transformation with minimal disruption.

Long-Term Value
While the initial cost may be higher than some traditional materials, the longevity, low maintenance, and aesthetic benefits of resin-bound paving make it a smart, cost-effective investment over time.

Final Word: Where Style Meets Performance
Resin-bound driveways deliver the perfect balance of form and function. With their eco-conscious benefits, lasting durability, and polished finish, they offer a stylish and practical upgrade—enhancing your home’s value and kerb appeal for years to come.
