It is affordable
This type of driveway can be installed over an existing concrete sub-base. The overall cost will depend on how large your driveway is, and the type of surface it is laid over. Many resin driveway kits can come with all the materials you need for a beautiful, long-lasting driveway. And while you can choose a labourer that best suits your needs and budget, a resin driveway will be a great choice for your needs.
There are many benefits to choosing a resin driveway for your home. The best way to save money on resin driveway installation is to prepare your sub-base beforehand. Cracks and other damages should be repaired before you apply the resin. Cracks can be repaired with concrete filler, while potholes can be fixed with cold lay pothole repair kits.
The former is cheaper, but the resin won't adhere to all stones. The latter requires a mix of the aggregate and resin, which will ensure a smooth, even surface. The resin will not deteriorate like timber over time. If your driveway will be used primarily for parking, a resin driveway can save you money. This material will also withstand weather and UV rays.
It is weed resistant: A resin driveway is weed resistant, which means fewer weeds can grow. The porous surface of a resin driveway allows water to drain through and is less likely to harbor weed seeds and weed roots. Regular surface cleaning is also important, as weeds love wet surfaces. However, a resin driveway is weed resistant compared to a concrete or asphalt driveway, which can harbor a number of weeds.
A resin driveway is weed resistant, which means you don't have to worry about weeds growing in it. Even though weeds don't grow in the resin, seeds can land on it. If you find a weed growing on the surface, you can use a strong weed killer to kill them, although this may discolour the resin driveway. It is also possible for algae and moss to grow in an ideal environment, and to treat the problem area with algae and moss killer is a good way to get rid of these.
If you notice weeds growing on a resin driveway, you should regularly brush the surface with a hard bristled brush or diluted household detergent to remove the seeds. If you notice weeds in small patches, apply weed killer regularly and follow the manufacturer's instructions to prevent regrowth. While a resin driveway is weed resistant, weeds can still appear on it due to wind-blown seeds.
