Aspire Drives - Resin Bound Experts

Looking for a new resin bonded driveway in Birmingham?

Our Resin Bonded driveways can bring that something special to your property, giving you the choice of numerous colour options and designs combined with the hard wearing characteristics needed for a driveway or pathway.

Resin Bonded resurfacing systems are applied precisely with minimum disruption. In some instances they can be installed on existing surfaces including tarmac, but only if it meets permeability criteria – otherwise you end up with a driveway that holds water, this defeats the object of having resin. It has to have a good sub-base that allows water to pass through it.  See our resin installation process below for a detailed breakdown of how we install resin driveways.

The installation process - the important details

Excavation & Restraints

We always excavate to a minimum depth of 150mm for resin driveways. We then install fixed kerbs and restraining edges to provide maximum stability to the driveway and to prevent spread.

MOT Type 3 Sub-base

We use MOT Type 3. This is a high-performance, permeable 0–40mm crushed stone sub-base with fewer fines (dust) than Type 1. Compliant with SHW Clause 805, it is specifically designed to deliver excellent drainage for Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS), permeable paving. It provides a durable and stable foundation while allowing efficient water permeability.

Compacted in layers

To ensure full compaction throughout the entire depth of the sub-base we compact in layers. This is essential for achieving maximum density, preventing future settlement, and maintaining permeability. As Type 3 is open-graded with fewer fines, laying in layers allows the vibrating compactor to fully interlock the stone particles throughout the full depth, rather than compacting only the surface.

60mm open porous tarmac base layer

The sub-base consists of 60mm of open porous tarmac (often referred to as open-graded asphalt or AC14 porous tarmac). This is the perfect base for resin driveways and is the industry standard for creating a fully permeable, SuDS-compliant (Sustainable Urban Drainage System) surface. This combination ensures maximum water management, structural integrity, and durability, allowing water to drain through the resin, into the base, and into the ground

18mm Resin Finish

We complete the driveway with a 18mm resin finish, this is the industry-standard depth for resin-bound driveways because it provides the optimal balance of structural durability, permeability, and longevity for heavy residential vehicular traffic.

Perfection

We don't skip or cut corners when it comes to our resin driveways. That's why we've listed in detail the steps we take for a resin driveway installation. We put so much attention into the sub-base, because without this, a resin driveway will quickly fail. Choosing Aspire Drives is the right choose when it comes to deciding to have a resin driveway installed in Birmingham.
