Frequently Asked Questions
What types of resin do you offer for permeable flooring?
ResinPro offers options for industrial cement-based floors, coloured self-levelling floors, garage floors, permeable pebble flooring, and coatings for tiles. The choice depends on your surface and desired finish.
Are specific weather conditions required for resin application?
Yes, for best adhesion and curing, avoid application during extremes of temperature or humidity. Ideal conditions are mild temperatures with low humidity.
What is a permeable floor?
A permeable floor combines resin with suitable granules and allows rainwater to pass through—preventing puddles and reducing flood risk in outdoor environments.
Can I install a permeable floor myself?
Yes, thanks to easy-to-follow instructions and user-friendly products. While DIY installation is feasible, using a cement mixer is recommended for large areas to simplify the process.
Are permeable resin floors suitable for high-traffic areas?
Absolutely. With the right resin and aggregate combination, permeable systems are robust and suitable for driveways, car parks, and footpaths.
What outdoor spaces can I use Washed Pebbles for Permeable Floors with?
These pebbles are typically used in patios, garden paths, terraces, and any outdoor space where resin systems ensure permeability and sustainability.
How should I bind stones for permeability and durability?
Loose gravel should be thoroughly mixed with the suitable resin binder (such as Polirock for white stones) before application to achieve strong adherence and drainage.
