Frequently Asked Questions

Explicit technical answers detailing system longevity, sub-base requirements, and installation specifics.

How long does a resin bound driveway last?

With proper installation using Vuba’s BBA-certified system, your resin bound surface will last 15–25 years. We provide a full 15-year written warranty protecting against aggregate surface detachment.

Can you lay resin bound over my existing concrete or asphalt?

Yes! This is our absolute core operational focus. As long as the base concrete or tarmac has finished thermal sinking limits and remains sound, we prepare and overlay it directly—skipping expensive site dig-outs entirely.

How permeable is resin bound surfacing?

It is up to 19× more permeable than traditional block paving layouts. Water flows immediately through structural matrix gaps, clearing surface puddles and fulfilling Christchurch drainage guidelines natively.

Do I need planning permission in Christchurch?

Typically not for residential property footprint overlays. Because our resin systems are fully permeable, they naturally align with local council storm-water retention profiles without adding non-permeable cover load.

Will the clear resin shift yellow in the NZ summer sun?

Absolutely not. We exclusively source Vuba Aliphatic (UV-Stable) polyurethanes. Unlike basic industrial aromatic formulas, our clear resin film remains crystal transparent permanently.

How long does the physical installation take?

Most standard residential driveway and pathway overlays are batched, poured, and finished within 2 to 3 days. You can confidently walk on the surface after 24 hours, and run normal vehicle traffic on it within 48 hours.
