Guarantee

Our resin bound aggregate surface is fully guaranteed for 10 years for workmanship and materials. If the resin system should lose adhesion from the base to which it is applied within 10 years, RDS will furnish sufficient labour and materials to carry out necessary repair work only, totally free of charge.

In the early life of your resin drive, in certain weather conditions, the surface may not be tactile in certain footwear. RDS cannot be responsible for any accidental trip, slip or fall.

Your resin bound installation when newly laid will have a temporary glossy surplus coating of resin on the uppermost surface to which a slip reduction agent has been added. This layer is a by-product of the mixing process and is not integral to the structure. It should be noted that over time this lustrous coating will naturally recede leaving the natural matte surface exposed to the elements, this change is to be expected. Changes in colour as a result of weathering are a natural part of the products life cycle and do not constitute defects in either materials or the installation.

Resin-bound surfacing is finished with steel floats and some variation in finished levels is to be expected. Level variation may be accentuated in certain natural and artificial lighting conditions such as sunrise, sunset or when lighting is set into the surface, as the glossy top coat recedes, this will lessen (please see the previous paragraph).

We endeavour to provide a seamless finish to the surface but this is not always possible and in such circumstances, a joining or expansion strip may be necessary.

Conditions of guarantee

1. Care must be taken after initial laying for at least 4 hours, dependent on weather conditions, to ensure time for curing and making sure roaming animals or people etc., are prevented from walking on the surface.

2. Does not cover damage caused by forceful impact or fire.

3. Does not cover damage caused by shrinkage, tree roots and deformation of any underlying structural layers not installed by ourselves.

4. The company shall not be liable in respect of mineralogical variations in the naturally sourced aggregates, in respect of minor natural colour variations which may have an effect on the overall appearance.

5. UVR Resin can take longer to cure in cold temperatures therefore driving over the surface should be delayed for 72 hours after completion.

6. Care should be taken to avoid accidental damage due to heavy breaking, over acceleration and dry-steering. Such damage can cause break up and is not covered by your guarantee.

7. Your domestic drive is constructed for pedestrian and light vehicle traffic (up to 7.5 tonnes). Damage from heavier vehicles is not covered and such vehicles should be prevented from crossing the surface.
