Resin bound surfacing is a smooth, durable and low-maintenance option for driveways, paths, patios, steps, ramps and other outdoor areas across Galashiels.
Natural stone aggregates are combined with clear resin to create a seamless finish, with different colour blends and design options available to complement the property and surrounding garden.
Based in Peebles, Equip2Save is an RRU approved resin bound installer providing resin surfacing throughout Galashiels and the surrounding Scottish Borders.
Resin bound surfacing is well suited to homeowners and businesses looking for a practical surface with a more decorative appearance than traditional tarmac.
It provides a stable finish without loose gravel and can be adapted to many different outdoor spaces.
Key benefits include:
clean, modern appearance
low-maintenance finish
wide choice of natural stone blends
suitable for driveways, paths, patios, steps and ramps
permeable when correctly installed over a suitable base
no loose gravel spreading onto nearby paths or roads
suitable for domestic and commercial spaces
installed by an RRU approved resin bound team

Resin bound surfacing can be used for:
driveways
garden paths
patios
steps
ramps
courtyards
access routes
decorative garden areas
commercial entrances
shared outdoor spaces
This makes it suitable for anything from smaller pathways and seating areas to complete driveway and access projects.
A resin bound surface does not need to look the same from one property to another.
Equip2Save can help you consider different natural stone colours, aggregate blends, edging details and design options based on the house, garden and surrounding materials.
Decorative borders and templates can also be incorporated where suitable, allowing the finished driveway or surface to feel more individual to the property.
Resin bound surfacing can provide a permeable finish when it is correctly installed over a suitable permeable base, allowing rainwater to drain through the surface rather than simply running across it.
Drainage and where surface water will go should therefore be considered as part of the wider driveway construction rather than looking only at the finished resin layer.
Where a Galashiels project involves creating or altering vehicle access across a public footway or verge, or other work affecting the public road, separate permissions may be required.
The requirements vary by property and project, so any necessary consent should be confirmed with Scottish Borders Council before relevant work begins.

Not every driveway or garden has straightforward machinery access.
Equip2Save has access to compact groundwork equipment, including small diggers and machinery suited to tighter spaces.
This can make preparation more practical for narrower driveways, side access routes, enclosed gardens, paths and other areas where larger equipment may not be suitable.
Resin bound surfaces are generally straightforward to maintain.
Regular sweeping, occasional cleaning and keeping drainage areas clear can help maintain the surface. Moss or weeds can be treated where necessary, while care around sharp or particularly heavy objects can help reduce avoidable damage.
Simple ongoing care can help preserve both the appearance and performance of the finished surface.
Equip2Save provides resin bound driveway and surface installation throughout Galashiels and surrounding areas.
