Why Homeowners Across Dorset Choose Resin Bound Surfacing
Resin bound surfacing has become one of the most popular driveway solutions in Dorset thanks to its clean appearance, permeability and low-maintenance finish.
Compared to traditional block paving, concrete or loose gravel, resin bound surfaces provide:
- Fully permeable drainage (SuDS compliant)
- No loose stones
- UV-stable colour finish
- Minimal weed growth
- Smooth modern appearance
- Anti-slip texture
- Long lifespan when installed correctly
- Wide range of natural stone blends
Whether you are upgrading a tired driveway in Poole or transforming a large entranceway in rural Dorset, resin bound surfacing creates a premium finish that complements both modern and traditional homes.
Applications
At Cherry Home Improvements, we cater to all applications and sectors when it comes to resin-bound surfacing. Whether you’re a homeowner looking to transform your driveway or a commercial contractor seeking a durable, low-maintenance solution for public or private spaces, we provide expert design and installation services tailored to your needs.
Driveways
Resin-bound driveways combine kerb appeal with performance, delivering a smooth, hard-wearing surface that’s fully permeable and built to withstand daily use.
Patios
Ideal for modern outdoor living, resin patios offer a sleek, slip-resistant finish that stays looking great with minimal maintenance - perfect for entertaining, relaxing or both.
Footpaths & Walkways
Seamless and safe underfoot, resin-bound paths are a smart upgrade from uneven slabs or gravel, offering long-lasting durability and excellent drainage.
Swimming Pool Surrounds
Resin is a stylish and practical choice for poolside areas - UV-stable, non-slip, and cool underfoot, even on hot days.
Courtyards & Forecourts
Transform tired concrete into a clean, elegant surface with a resin finish that complements both traditional and contemporary properties.
Playgrounds & Recreational Areas
With its smooth texture and excellent grip, resin-bound surfacing is a safe, low-maintenance solution for schools, parks and recreational zones.
Carparks
Durable, SUDS-compliant and customisable with demarcation lines or colour zones, resin is ideal for light-use carparks with a high-end finish.
Business Entrances & Access Routes
First impressions matter - resin-bound surfacing gives commercial entrances a professional look while offering a robust, low-slip solution for high foot traffic.
Not All Resin Driveways Are Built The Same
One of the biggest reasons resin driveways fail is poor groundwork.
Many cheaper installations are simply laid over weak or unsuitable bases, which can eventually lead to cracking, movement and costly repairs.
At Cherry Home Improvements, we focus on building resin systems correctly from the ground up.
Our typical full dig specification includes:
- Excavation of existing surface
- Professional ground preparation
- Permeable Type 3 MOT sub-base
- Structural reinforcement mesh
- VubaMac permeable binder layer
- UV-stable resin bound top layer
This creates a strong, durable and fully permeable surface designed for long-term performance.
We never use non-UV resin systems that can yellow or discolour over time.

Reviews
Very very good from start to finish.
We had a resin patio laid, and after Russell carried out the survey and quote, their team led by Adam arrived on the Monday and worked incredibly hard for two days to deliver a great final finish. They went above and beyond to suggest improvements to the garden design, and were attentive and keen to please. Excellent stuff, highly recommended team. Thank you.

Great Company
Amazing company to work with from start to finish. The driveway looks amazing. On top of this the team who did the great work were polite, friendly, tidy and even took the time to chat to our kids! A great experience. Can’t recommend more.

Trafalgar School Quad
Many thanks to Russell, Bill and Laura for producing a wonderful space that can now be utilised in our School. A special thanks to Adam and his crew for staying on to get the Quad finished. You are all stars!! If you could see the Students out there now you would see how important it was to get this area developed. Thank you all so much.
Trafalgar school, Portsmouth
Cherry homes were outstanding from start to finish.
The finished product truly finished off our extensive home renovations. Their product, professionalism and ultimate finish has left our driveway the envy of our street. Communication throughout was second to none. The team that laid the driveway were masters of their art. They started work at 9am and didnt stop until they were finished at the end of the day. We are so happy with the resin finish of our driveway that we are looking at having them return to lay a resin patio. You will not regret reaching out to Cherry home improvements to lay a resin driveway

I would recommend to anyone.
We met with several companies before choosing Cherry Home Improvements to complete our driveway. From the first meeting with Russell we were impressed by his professionalism & knowledge which was carried forward to installation of our driveway by his incredibly skilled team. Following a large home renovation we have met several tradespeople but never with such an exceptional work ethic, the Cherry Home Improvements team are total perfectionists.

Russ and Alan have been fantastic from start to finish!
I enquired about a media wall before in October and didn’t complete on my new property until January but Russ checked in now and then and kept in contact the whole time! Extremely helpful when it came to delivery and felt like I could trust Russ from the get go. Absolutely great service and Alan did an amazing job at fitting it. I absolutely love my media wall, couldn’t recommend enough! Thanks so much to both Russ and Alan!

Frequently Asked Questions
A professionally installed resin bound driveway can last 15-25 years or more depending on usage, maintenance and the quality of the installation.
Yes. Resin bound surfacing is fully permeable when installed onto a suitable base, allowing water to drain naturally through the surface.
Properly installed resin systems on stable sub-bases are highly durable. Cracking is usually caused by movement in poorly prepared foundations.
Sometimes, but only if the existing base is structurally sound. In many cases, a full dig installation is the better long-term solution.
Not when UV-stable resin is used. We only install UV-stable systems designed to resist yellowing and discolouration.
Costs vary depending on size, access and groundwork requirements. We provide free site surveys and quotations across Dorset.
Minimal – just regular sweeping and occasional pressure washing. Prompt attention to spills and treating algae or moss in shaded areas will keep your surface looking fresh for years
Not if UV-stable resin is used. Cheap resins can yellow over time, but we only use premium UV-resistant systems that keep their colour for years.
