Resin Bonded Driveways UK

S.U.D.s* or Sustainable Drainage Systems is the name given to several measures aimed at reducing the amount of surface water run-off. This run-off is generated after precipitation. Our increasingly urban environment has been designed to remove water from surfaces quickly. This has shifted the problem from the surface to downstream into our sewers and rivers. Thus, this is responsible for much of the ‘flash flooding’ we have experienced in recent years.

S.U.D.s comprises a number of preventative measures. Reducing leaks, the creation of green roofs, filter drains, ponds, and wetlands, etc. One of the important components is the provision of porous surfaces which allow rainwater to drain through them into the underlying construction or soil.

We are resin driveway specialists and offer a wide range of products to help you keep your surfaces flood water free. All our resin bond driveways, whether fitted by us or our DIY kits, will provide you with a S.U.D.s compliant surface allowing excess water to easily drain away to the underlying sub-base.

UK National Standard Compliance

Schedule 3 to the Flood and Water Management Act 2010 requires construction work with drainage implications to have its drainage systems for managing surface runoff (including rainwater, snow and other precipitation) approved before construction may begin.

A S.U.D.s Approving Body (SAB) will be established in unitary or county local authorities to approve and adopting SuDS where appropriate. The Act requires the Minister to publish National Standards on the design, construction, operation and maintenance of S.U.D.s. In order for drainage applications to be approved, the SAB must ensure that the applicant has designed the S.U.D.s in accordance with the National Standards. Once approved, the SAB must adopt and maintain those S.U.D.s that are functioning properly and serve more than one property.

Clearly, any future building or construction work must demonstrate compliance with S.U.D.s through the incorporation of S.U.D.s components into the design. In terms of the sheer area concerned, the provision of pervious surfaces must be viewed as a key component of any design measures used.

SUDwell™ paving system is a resin bound aggregate surfacing system which can be used as a component of a S.U.D.s compliant resin bound system. SUDwell™ Resin Bound Permeable system provides the surface course of a paved area and is free-draining.

Of course, for the full paving construction to be considered as S.U.D.s compliant, all the components of the construction must be S.U.D.s compliant. It is only as good as its weakest link. However, such materials are now available in pervious sub-base and asphalt products.

Resin Bound Gravel

Here at The Resin Bonded Slab Company we have an extensive range of stones and colours available for you to choose from. With such a wide range of gravel, it is easy to create a bespoke design that is unique to you. We can create decorative patterns and some brand logos if required.

All our resin bound gravel is a mix of gravels, aggregates, stone or recycled materials that produce a decorative and permeable surface. When installed the SUDwell™ patented and trademarked resin bound gravel systems provide a permeable surface that allows water to drain away.

You have a choice with the type of resin to use. The gravel is not just aesthetically pleasing, but is low maintenance, hardwearing and UV stable with the UV resin. This Eco-friendly gravel is quick and easy to install and will leave you with a smooth surface that is ready to drive on and use within 6-12 hours. It will also last you for 25 years or more without any need to make costly repairs.

Resin Driveways

SUDwell™ Resin Bound Driveways are a resin bound Trade Marked system. This system is designed to be used in conjunction with specially selected aggregates in precise proportions. The results are visually stunning paved areas for pedestrian or light vehicular traffic.

Such areas would typically include Resin Bonded and Bound SUDS heritage sites, Resin Bonded Driveways, SUDS, Resin Bonded and Bound estate roads. Also included are SUDS Resin bound drives, Car Parks, Resin Bound Driveways, footpaths, Resin Bonded and Resin Bound cycleways. Courtyards, pathways, public parks, pedestrian precincts, Resin Driveways London, office buildings, Resin Bonded and Resin Bound landscaping schemes.

We also install surfaces for schools, Resin Bonded and Resin Bound walkways, Resin Bound tree pits, Resin Bonded and Resin Bound patios. Resin driveways near me, conservatories, gardens, playgrounds, swimming pool surrounds, disabled access ramps, Resin Bonded roof terraces and Resin Bound balconies, plus Driveways, and Permeable Driveways.

SUDwell™ Resin Bonded Driveways surfacing has been proven in use over time and over hundreds of thousands of square metres of surfacing. Using it as part of a resin bound aggregate surfacing system gives you:

• A beautiful even surface using natural materials

• Available as Resin Bound Slabs

• Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) compliance

• Environmentally friendly, biomass-based resin system containing no harmful chemicals

• No odour either during or after installation

• A durable yet flexible and crack resistant surface
