Resin driveway cleaning across Bristol
Resin driveway cleaning removes dirt, moss, algae and organic staining from a resin bound surface using a rotary surface cleaner at a moderate pressure, followed where needed by a biocide treatment. The aim is to clean the pores without damaging the resin.
Resin bound is low maintenance, not no maintenance. Leaves, tree sap and shade let algae grow in the pores, which makes the surface darker and slippery and slows drainage.
Across Bristol, the projects we price include restoring a tired, patchy resin drive, diagnosing loose stones on a drive laid by someone else and treating moss and algae under trees.

Planning in Bristol
In England, a new or replaced hard surface of more than 5 m² in a front garden is permitted development only if it is porous, or if rainwater drains to a lawn, border or soakaway within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
Permitted development rights apply to houses, not flats or maisonettes, and some conservation areas have Article 4 directions that remove them. Listed buildings can need consent if railings or historic walls are affected.
Weather and working days
The South West gets more rain than the east of England, especially on higher ground, so permeability and falls matter on every drive. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Bristol jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
