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.
For resin surfaces already down in Plymouth, the first step is finding the cause: a moving base, a thin or under-mixed layer, or staining. The fix follows from that. Across Plymouth, many front drives are compact, so access, skips and parking for the crew are planned at survey.
In Plymouth we can price work such as deep-cleaning a resin drive that has gone green in the shade, treating moss and algae under trees and cutting out and refilling a cracked patch with a matched blend. More about resin driveway cleaning.

Planning in Plymouth
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 Plymouth jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
How it works
You start with a guide price, we visit to measure and check the site, you get a written quote, and we book the work for suitable weather.
