Resin Bound Surfacing Contractors
Durable And Highly Customisable Resin Bound Surfacing, Transform Your Outdoor Space
South Cambs are specialists in resin driveways across Cambridge and the surrounding areas, delivering high-quality, durable, and visually striking surfacing solutions for both residential and commercial projects. We offer a wide range of resin surfacing options designed to suit everything from residential properties to large commercial developments.
Using premium resin bound gravel and professionally prepared systems, we install seamless surfaces suitable for paths, patios, access roads, private driveways, and large-scale car parks. Our team works with a carefully selected range of resin bound aggregates and finishes, allowing you to choose a colour and texture that complements the style of your property.
Our installers specialise in resin bound systems rather than resin bonded finishes. This method creates a smooth, hard-wearing surface that performs far better than loose gravel and many traditional driveway materials. The finished surface is fully UV stable, helping it retain its colour and structural strength for up to 15 years with minimal maintenance.
Resin bound surfacing is also a practical choice when it comes to planning regulations. In many cases, our installations are SUDS compliant, allowing water to drain naturally through the surface and reducing surface runoff. This makes resin driveways an environmentally responsible solution while helping properties meet modern drainage requirements.
From initial design through to professional installation, our experienced team works closely with each client to deliver a long-lasting resin surface that enhances the appearance and functionality of their property. By combining durability, aesthetics, and compliance, we create outdoor surfaces that are both attractive and built to last.
Fast Installation Low Maintenance
Our resin bound installation process is designed for efficiency and minimal disruption. Most driveways, patios, and pathways can be completed in just one to two days, depending on the size and complexity of the project.
We use high-quality resin bound kits and carefully selected natural aggregates to ensure a consistent, professional finish on every installation. The result is a smooth and durable surface that maintains its appearance for years to come.
Once installed, resin bound surfacing requires very little ongoing maintenance. Unlike block paving or loose gravel, there is no need for frequent sealing, sanding, or constant weed removal, making it a practical and cost-effective driveway solution.
Permeable, Eco-Friendly Surfaces
Unlike many traditional driveway materials, Vuba resin bound surfacing systems are fully permeable, allowing water to drain naturally through the surface. This helps prevent puddles, improves drainage, and supports compliance with Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS) regulations.
The combination of high-quality resin and natural stone aggregate creates a surface that is both visually appealing and environmentally responsible, while maintaining excellent drainage performance.
Weed-Resistant and Durable
Our resin bound driveways, patios, and pathways are engineered to resist cracking, movement, and weed growth. The UV-stable bound gravel system creates a strong, slip-resistant surface that provides a safe and durable alternative to loose gravel, block paving, or asphalt.
The result is a professional resin surface that enhances your property while delivering long-term performance.

South Cambs recently transformed our new build garden into the perfect outdoor space for us. They designed and built a decking area for outdoor dining with surrounding low wall and planting, added extra paving with a curved edge to planting along our fence and lawn, created & seeded an area for wild flowers and added three trees with irrigation system and a great choice of plants as well as a screened off space to hide ugly bins and shed. Ben and his team were very professional, hard working and polite throughout, a real pleasure to have around. I highly recommend them!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.

Sub-Base Guidance for Resin Bound Surfaces
The entire system is dependent upon the integrity of the sub-base to be successful. Therefore it is importance careful attention is paid to this part of the process.
Geotextile Membrane:
A non-woven geotextile membrane is installed under the sub-base. This not only acts as a permeable separation barrier layer, which contains the substrate and stops it migrating and contaminating the sub-base above, but also provides structural support, spreading weight from above in a uniform fashion.
Geotextile Membrane:

This not only acts as a permeable separation barrier layer, which contains the substrate and stops it migrating and contaminating the sub-base above, but also provides structural support, spreading weight from above in a uniform fashion.
Suitable Granulometry:
Because resin bound surfacing is fully permeable, all precipitation eventually reaches the sub-base. Sub-bases containing excessive fines can swell or wash away when exposed to rainwater, leading to ground heave. Conversely, wet sub-bases with fines may shrink as they dry.
For a standard 150mm sub-base, we recommend:
125mm of 25–50mm clean stone
25mm capping layer of 5–10mm stone
This “no-fines” sub-base ensures a stable foundation for resin bound driveways, patios, and paths, preventing future movement or settlement.
Suitable Depth:
The standard depth is 150mm. However, the depth of sub-base required may deviate from the standard, dependent upon the sub-soil and / or other factors. For more information about Sub-Soils and how that might impact the sub-base, please see our Vuba Sub-Soils Datasheet. A "no-fines" sub-base is therefore important. For a standard 150mm sub-base, we recommend 125mm of a 25-50mm clean stone, and then a 25mm
capping layer of a 5-10mm stone.
Suitable Compaction:
Wherever possible, large compaction equipment like vibratory rollers should be used. Failing that, compactor plates can be used, but it’s worthwhile compacting in layers to ensure complete compaction throughout to prevent future ground settlement.
