A: Yes. We provide a free survey of your property without any obligation, along with expert advice and a clear, itemised quotation. Our pricing is open and transparent, so there are no grey areas and no hidden costs. - Q: How long before I can use my new resin bound surface? A: Resin bound surfacing is ready for foot traffic after around 12 hours (temperature dependent). Cars can use it after 48 hours, and larger commercial vehicles should wait up to 72 hours so the surface fully cures. - Q: Will I need planning permission for a resin bound driveway? A: Usually not. Our resin bound surfaces are fully permeable and SUDS compliant, so rainwater drains straight through. Because the surface is free draining, it does not normally require planning permission. - Q: How quickly can a tarmac driveway be installed? A: Tarmac is quick and easy to install. Once the groundwork and sub-base are prepared, a typical residential tarmac driveway can be laid and completed within a day. - Q: How do I look after resin bound surfacing? A: Very little maintenance is needed. A light sweep from time to time and an occasional light pressure wash to lift stubborn marks will keep your surface looking its best for years. - Q: Is rubber crumb safe for children's play areas? A: Yes. Our wet pour safety surfacing is fully certified to EN1177 and combines a recycled SBR rubber base layer with a high-quality EPDM top layer, creating a durable, slip-resistant surface that protects against injuries from trips and falls. - Q: Do you take on commercial projects and work outside the UK? A: Absolutely. We deliver residential and commercial projects nationwide and across Europe. In 2016 we completed a large surfacing contract at Euro Disney in Paris for the Marriott Hotel Group.
