Resin-bound stone aggregate maintenance in is required to make certain that it looks and acts the way it should. You should not wait until the surface becomes slippery and dangerous before beginning your maintenance procedure which must be in place almost instantly after the resin-bound stone has been installed. A thorough maintenance procedure involves:

Cleaning Surface – Each surface we install is a SuDS paving design which means it provides good drainage qualities. Ensuring leaves, flowers, pine needles, weeds and other detritus do not remain on the surface for any length of time. This can affect the porosity and permeable nature of the aggregate system meaning that it's no longer SuDS compliant. This is also the case with algae and moss which can sometimes allow moisture to be trapped within the stone causing expansion and damage in cold weather conditions. Cleaning the area regularly with a light power wash will often be enough to deter the growth of algae, weeds and moss which are easier to prevent than to get rid of once present.
Stain removal – It is important when cleaning the flooring that boiling water is not used as this can sometimes damage the system. Hot water and household detergent are often enough to thoroughly clean the gravel surface however if the event of chewing gum a freezing aerosol may be used. Stubborn stains such as oil can be treated with methylated spirits.
Cold/freezing weather – snow and ice alone will not damage the resin-bound system however the use of heavy scrapers or stiff metal brushes will cause damage to the rubberised wearing course and should not be used at any point. If snow needs removing, it must be with a rubber scraper or light bristled brush so that the gravel system is not damaged.
Weeds – No matter how well the gravel is maintained there is always the chance of weeds due to a number of different reasons. If weeds to occur, a normally localised weed killer could be used on the surface however it is vital that it's not oil based as it may damage the flooring.

What is Resin Bound Gravel?

Resin-bound gravel is a decorative surface type used for local outdoor areas like garden patios, driveways, pool surrounds and pathways. It may be installed in several gravel stones. The permeable flooring is produced by attaching natural stone aggregate with a polyurethane resin, which gives a level, long-lasting and aesthetically pleasing flooring.

The paving is cracking resistant and will need minimal routine maintenance. It's good for the gravel to possess a macadam sub-base because it's SUDS compliant allowing water may pass through without difficulty, considering that the surfacing is porous. Resin-bound stone paving is perfect for various many uses. Wheelchairs and trolleys are able to move without difficulty over the surface a result of its smooth structure; the porous qualities of the floor also help to stop.

You can not use hot water while washing your own resin-bound flooring, warm water together with a house-hold detergent would be correct to thoroughly clean your paving. Ice and snow could be taken off the surfacing with a gentle bristled sweep or a rubberized remover in order to eliminate the surfaces getting harmed.
