Driveways are no longer just a place to park your car. Nowadays, they are part of your home’s exterior offering a warm welcome to your visitors. An eye-catching resin driveway can transform the outside of your property, complementing its features and adding that all-important kerb appeal. Resin bound gravel surfaces provide a notable upgrade from concrete, block paving or a loose gravel driveway. If you are looking for an attractive yet practical solution to enhance your property, resin bound surfacing is the way to go. Resin driveways are very low maintenance and offer fantastic drainage. further they can be customised with patterns for a bespoke finish unique only to you.
How does the resin driveway installation process work?
The Moli installation team has vast experience and your new resin driveway is only days away. We have a dedicated page about the installation process but in brief, this involves the following steps.
- The existing driveway is dug out to a depth between 200 and 300mm
- A sub base of 100-200mm frost-resistant and porous, accredited MOT Type 3 aggregate is installed and compacted down.
- Once the sub base is in place 70-80mm of a porous “no fines” concrete or an open grade 10-14mm aggregate-sized tarmac is installed.
- When the base is cured a solid polyurethane-based UV stable resin is mixed with a clean, washed and dried aggregate of choice. This is hand-laid over the surface using special trowels or hover floats.
- Finally, crushed glass is cast over the curing surface to ensure an anti-slip finish.
Key Features
Water Permeable
Due to the way it forms, our resin bound gravel allows water to drain through the finished surface naturally, reducing slippage and puddles. It is also weed resistant.
Eco-Friendly
Compared to concrete, our resin is over 10 times more eco-friendly due to the materials used, and it still has a brilliant end finish with long-lasting appeal.
UV Resistant
Our resin bound driveway materials have been specially formulated for use in driveways, pathways, and patios to make them UV stable, so they won’t change colour or fade in the sun.
Aesthetic Appeal
Resin bound driveways create an aesthetically pleasing surface. The smooth, contemporary look and wide range of colours improve your home's curb appeal making your driveway stand out from your neighbours. You can take as much pride in the exterior of your home as you do the interior with a statement driveway from Moli.

How long resin driveways last?
Resin driveways are a durable and long-lasting option for a driveway surface. They are made from a combination of resin bound system and aggregate materials, which are mixed together and then poured onto a prepared surface. The resulting surface is smooth, durable, and hard-wearing. With proper installation and maintenance, a resin driveway can last for many years. It typically can last around 15-20 years. Overall, resin driveways are a great option for anyone looking for a durable and long-lasting surface for their driveway. Moli resin drives are high quality and comes with a lifetime colour lock guarantee, so you don't have to worry about any colour changes.
Are resin driveways slippery?
Resin bound driveways are a popular choice for homeowners because they are durable, low-maintenance, and attractive. One concern that some people have about resin driveways is whether they are slippery. The short answer is that, like most surfaces, a resin driveway can become slippery when wet. However, Moli resin driveways are made with an anti-skid additive that increases the surface's slip resistance. The anti-slip layer is created by adding 0.5mm of crushed glass that is casted over the trowelled resin. This makes the driveway non-slippery so it can be used safely. Overtime this anti slip material wears down with the top surface layer of resin. Once this happens you get the grip provided from the aggregates. Install resin bound driveways if you are looking for a a safe and non-slippery surface for your driveway, when properly maintained.
Can I mix resin driveway colours?
Mixing different resin bound surface colours is a great way to create a unique and bespoke resin driveway. Moli offers 28 different resin bound colours to choose from, giving homeowners a wide range of options to create a personalised look for their driveway. You can mix and match different colours to create resin contrasting borders or use a single colour for a classic and timeless look. The possibilities are endless with the wide variety of resin driveway colours that Moli provides. With their expert technicians' help, you can create a truly one-of-a-kind resin driveway that will enhance the kerb appeal of your home and stand out from the rest of your neighbourhood. Moli's team of professionals can guide you through the process and help you achieve the perfect look for your home.
How much do resin driveways cost?
The cost of resin driveways is difficult to quantify without an analysis of your existing surface, its size and an understanding of any extras that might be required. Every driveway has a unique shape, depth and edgings. The best thing to do is book a free no-obligation quote and get a full analysis of your driveway by Moli.
As a rough average, the cost per square meter can range from £100 to £200 inc. VAT depending on factors such as if a full transformation is required, a new base installation or installation over the existing base, our makeover option. More information can also be found in our blog post on resin driveway cost.
How long do resin driveways take to cure?
A resin bound driveway can take up to 24 hours before its suitable for vehicles to drive on. However, we would always recommend 48 hours before parking on your driveway due to temperature fluctuations in the UK. When we experience warmer weather, resin bound will cure quicker than in the winter so ensure you speak to your surveyor or Moli installer on the day the job is laid to get an accurate timeline for curing.
What depth of resin gravel is normally laid?
Resin Bound driveways are laid at 18-20mm depth as the surface is designed for vehicular traffic. However, it can vary depending on the type of application and also the size of aggregates chosen. Footpaths and patios use less material and are typically laid at 15mm.
