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

A Hall

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

What is a resin-bound surface?

A resin-bound surface is a smooth, durable, fully permeable finish created by mixing clear resin with natural aggregates (like gravel or stone), hand-trowelling it over a prepared base – ideal for driveways, paths, patios and more

How does resin-bound differ from resin-bonded?

Resin-bound combines resin and aggregate before laying, resulting in a smooth, porous surface that meets SUDS drainage standards. Resin-bonded involves broadcasting aggregate over resin, producing a rough, non-permeable finish

Is resin-bound permeable?

Yes – water drains directly through the resin-bound surface into the base, reducing flooding risk and making it compliant with UK Sustainable Drainage (SUDS) regulations

How long does it last?

With quality materials, proper base installation, and good maintenance, a resin-bound surface can last 15–25 years – often exceeding 20 years when professionally installed

Is resin-bound slip-resistant?

Generally, yes – textured aggregates provide inherent grip, and anti-slip additives (like crushed glass) can be added for extra safety, especially in wet areas

What colours and finishes are available?

A wide array: from subtle neutrals to bold blends or classic stone looks. You can also create contrasts with borders, patterns, or blended aggregates to match your home’s aesthetic

How much maintenance is needed?

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

Does resin bound surface fade?

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.
