Those tired block paving joints collecting weeds along Streatham's tree-lined streets? Resin bound surfaces create seamless, low-maintenance spaces that complement both Victorian terraces and modern developments throughout SW16.

Streatham's mix of period properties and contemporary homes demands versatile surfacing solutions. Resin bound technology bonds natural aggregates with clear resin, creating permeable surfaces ideal for the sloping driveways common near Streatham Common. The result transforms cracked concrete and loose gravel into smooth, accessible surfaces that handle everything from pushchairs to wheelchairs with ease.
Installation begins with thorough ground preparation - essential given the clay-heavy soil found across much of SW2. A stable sub-base prevents future movement, whilst the porous nature of resin bound surfaces eliminates puddles that plague traditional tarmac during Streatham's frequent showers. Each aggregate blend gets hand-trowelled to achieve consistent thickness, typically 15-18mm for residential applications.
Local knowledge matters when working around mature London plane trees and navigating Streatham Hill's gradient challenges. Years spent transforming driveways from Furzedown to Streatham Vale means understanding which aggregate blends best suit south London's climate whilst meeting specific drainage requirements.

Every surface carries decade-long protection against UV fading, loose stones and surface degradation. This comprehensive guarantee covers materials and workmanship, providing peace of mind that your investment will enhance your property for years ahead.
Unlike porous block paving, resin bound surfaces resist oil penetration. Any spills sit on the surface where they're easily cleaned with standard degreasers. The non-porous resin coating prevents permanent staining that ruins traditional driveways.
