TriDrive Resin Driveways in Ireland

Resin Bound Driveway

Cost, Value and Longevity Explained

If you’re considering upgrading your driveway in Ireland, the TriDrive Resin Bound System from Tricel Composites offers a modern, durable, and low-maintenance solution. In this post, we answer the most common questions about resin driveways—cost, value, and lifespan—so you can make an informed decision.

How Much Does a Resin Driveway Cost in Ireland?

The cost of a resin driveway in Ireland depends on several factors including:

  • Size of the area
  • Type of resin system (Bound vs. Bonded)
  • Base preparation
  • Aggregate choice and finish

DIY installation using Tricel’s kits can reduce costs, especially for smaller areas or experienced installers.

Tricel also offers training courses for installers in Ireland, helping tradespeople and homeowners learn how to apply the TriDrive system correctly 

Are Resin Driveways Worth It?

Yes—resin driveways are a smart investment for Irish homeowners. The TriDrive system offers several advantages over traditional materials like concrete, tarmac, or gravel:

  • Aesthetic appeal: Available in a wide range of colours and textures to suit any property style 
  • Durability: UV-resistant resin prevents fading and cracking, even under harsh weather
  • Low maintenance: No weeds, no loose stones, and easy cleaning with a stiff brush or pressure washer
  • Permeability: Water drains through the surface, reducing puddles and supporting SUDS compliance 
  • Safety: Slip-resistant finish makes it safer for pedestrians and vehicles

While the upfront cost may be higher than gravel or tarmac, the long-term savings on maintenance and repairs make resin driveways cost-effective over time.

How Long Does a Resin Driveway Last?

A properly installed TriDrive resin driveway can last 15 to 25 years, depending on usage and maintenance 

The system is designed to withstand:

  • Heavy foot and vehicle traffic
  • UV exposure
  • Frost and moisture
  • Oil and chemical spills

Routine sweeping and occasional pressure washing are usually all that’s needed to keep the surface looking fresh. Avoid using metal-bristled brushes or high-pressure jets directly on the surface to preserve its integrity
