What resin driveway cleaning involves
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.
We start every Exeter repair or clean by looking at why the surface has changed, so the work deals with the cause and not just the symptom. Exeter has a broad mix of housing, from terraces near the centre to detached homes on the edges.
Across Devon, the projects we price include treating moss and algae under trees, cutting out and refilling a cracked patch with a matched blend and repairing oil and fuel damage on a parking bay. More about resin driveway cleaning.

Planning in Exeter
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.
General information for England, not legal advice.
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 Exeter jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
