The Devon Resin Co is a local, professional resin‑surfacing team serving homes across Devon — from the meandering lanes of Totnes to the coastal terraces of Torquay, the granite edges of Dartmoor, and the elegant streets of Exeter.
We curate resin bound driveways, pathways, and patios using only premium UV‑stable resin, SUDS‑compliant permeable systems, and Polybound‑approved installation methods. Every project is completed by our in‑house team — no subcontractors, no shortcuts, no compromises.
With a 2‑year workmanship guarantee and a 20‑year product guarantee, we deliver surfaces that are smooth, seamless, hard‑wearing, and built for Devon’s changing seasons — from sea‑spray mornings to frost‑tipped winter nights.
Every installation is crafted with care, precision, and a touch of Devon charms— inspired by the serene tones of Dawlish sandstone, the vivid slate hues of Dartmoor, and the soft coastal greys of Salcombe.
Explore our specialised resin bound surfacing options. From SUDS-compliant driveways to precision-contoured steps, each installation is engineered for Devon's unique landscape.
Ultra high-performance resin surface is only as resilient as the engineering beneath it. We adhere to a multi-stage architectural process that ensures structural longevity, SUDS compliance, and aesthetic precision.
The process begins with the complete removal of organic matter and unstable debris. To ensure long-term stability, we install a high-tensile geotextile separation fabric beneath the sub-base. This critical layer prevents the migration of native Devon sub-soils into the clean aggregate, maintaining the structural and drainage integrity of the entire installation.
The foundation is the "engine room" of the driveway. We offer two primary specifications depending on your drainage requirements:
Standard Specification: A minimum 150mm depth of MOT Type 1 aggregate, distributed in uniform layers and mechanically consolidated using high-frequency vibrating plate compactors to eliminate future settlement.
Permeable (SUDS) Specification: For maximum water management, we utilise Open-Graded Porous Asphalt (OGPA) installed over a compacted MOT Type 3 sub-base, creating a fully permeable system that prevents surface runoff.
To ensure the resin matrix remains contained and structurally sound, we install heavy-duty edging—available in Architectural Aluminium, Galvanized Steel, or Pre-formed Concrete. Every edge is laser-leveled and securely haunched to provide a permanent, immovable boundary that resists lateral pressure and shifting.
The final phase involves the precision-blending of our UV-stable aliphatic resin with kiln-dried aggregates. Using a forced action mixer, we create a homogenous matrix that is hand-trowelled to a strict 20mm thickness. This results in a seamless, porous, and high-friction surface that is chemically bonded to the foundation for decades of service.
Customer safety is our priority, that's why we tailor our approach to driveways installation through a unique process that protects you and your home.
Before a single bag of aggregate is opened, our team conducts a Site Risk Assessment. This includes:
Sub-Base Integrity Checks: Ensuring the foundation can handle the resin-bound load.
Property Masking: Protecting your brickwork, damp-proof courses, and surrounding foliage from resin splash.
Logistics Planning: Coordinating vehicle movements to ensure minimal disruption to your neighbors and the local Devon community.
Our own installation team (no subcontractors) carries out live checks during every phase:
Batch Consistency: Monitoring the forced action mixer cycles for uniform resin-to-aggregate distribution.
Environmental Audits: Checking humidity and ground temperature to ensure the pot life and curing process are chemically optimized for the day’s weather.
Site Safety: Maintaining a clean, secure perimeter to keep residents and pets safe from the workspace.
Once the trowelling is complete, we perform a final walk-through and audit:
Slip-Resistance Verification: Ensuring the high-friction profile is correctly applied for immediate safety.
Edge-Bond Inspection: Checking the structural seal at every boundary and transition point.
Post-Cure Cleanse: Removing all protective masking and ensuring your property is left in pristine condition—with only the new surface to show we were there.
The investment varies based on the existing substrate. We specialise in two primary methods:
When installed to our 20mm technical specification, a resin-bound surface is engineered to last in excess of 25 years. With minimal maintenance—such as occasional power washing to keep the pores clear—the UV-stable binders ensure the surface remains flexible and vibrant for decades.
We offer a comprehensive palette with over 200 aggregate variations. Whether you are looking for a "heritage" flint to match a Devon cottage or a contemporary silver-grey for a modern build, we can customize a blend to match your specific aesthetic.
Most residential projects are completed within 1 to 2 days. The timeline depends on the total square meterage and the level of "pre-prep" required for the sub-base. Because we use our own dedicated installation team, we maintain tight schedules and minimize disruption to your home.
We stand behind our engineering with a dual-layered warranty:
