The Beginning
Our customer in Stanground wanted to change his sons driveway as it was in bit of a mess and really liked the idea of a Resin Bound install with no maintenance and in a colour to match his property.
Work we carried out
The entire driveway was excavated and new levels setup.
The area was hardcored with MOT type 1 (important the right type of hardcore is used for any driveway install be it Resin or Block Paving), and the area was whackered down top to bottom, bottom to top, left to right and right to left to make sure the drive had a good solid base installed.
Charcoal blocks were then installed and concrete laid at 150-180mm, to conform to BS EN 206-1 and BS 8900-2.
Once the concrete had been given enough days to fully cure the driveway was hand trowelled with a mixture of Daltex Black and Daltex Silver aggregate bound in a UV resistant resin. This was laid at 18-20mm for vehicluar traffic.
To finish the blocks were then sealed to help repel water and maintain their colour.
The customer loves his new driveway and has had numerous neighbours and people passing ask for details.
