Resin Bound Gravel Binder Using only the highest quality polyurethane binders is vital to the success of any resin bound gravel installation. So to the big question: how much will your driveway costs come to if you opt to have a resin driveway installed? And if you think that sounds easy, Vuba make it even more of a doddle by selling 5 litre spray bottles of the EasiHold so there’s not even any need to decant from the larger 25 litre containers used on larger jobs.

For those preferring to use a watering can, ensure there is a fine rose head fitted to the spout before applying. It’s then a simple task of pouring some of the ready-to-use EasiHold resin into the can before applying it to the gravelled surface. GravelHold can be poured from a watering can, using around 1 litre per square metre. Ensure your stones are evenly coated for best results. A sprinkler rose should be used to ensure distribution. Or, if desired, 3mm diameter holes can be drilled into the lid of the GravelHold container to create a sprinkler effect and be used similarly to a watering can. The cost of resin driveways will vary depending on the current state of the base it is being laid on. A badly damaged or uneven base will see costs rise.

As it is so versatile, there are a range of different styles and looks you can create to make a truly unique and bespoke area in your home. Note how a sheet of heavy-duty polythene has been laid down over the preparation area just in case of any spills or splashes. This will help minimise the risk of any accidental staining of the flagstones beneath with the EasiHold resin. EasiHold comes as a liquid in 1 litre ready-filled sprayers, in 5 litre canisters or 25 litre drums.The components should be combined in the mixer for around two minutes in total and normally has a consistency of porridge.

And key to this simplicity is the way that EasiHold is applied. Unlike conventional resin bound surfacing, the binder component, ie, the resin, is not pre-mixed with the selected aggregate, so there is no requirement of a forced action mixer, no need for messy cleaning solvents, no demand for specialist rakes, lutes, floats and spreaders. It’s so simple it can be used by homeowners, DIYers and gardeners with no complicated training.
