Poseidon resin driveway overlay in Exeter

Started and completed in Exeter on 10 July 2026, this sound concrete driveway was prepared and reinforced with mesh before a Vuba Poseidon resin bound overlay was installed and hand finished.

Project summary

Location: Exeter, Devon
Completed: 10 July 2026
Existing surface: Concrete driveway
Preparation: Surface preparation and reinforcement mesh
Finish: Vuba Poseidon resin bound aggregate

Challenges

The existing concrete needed careful assessment and preparation before it could receive a resin bound overlay.
Movement and crack reflection from the original surface needed to be reduced within the overlay specification.
The new finish required a clean, consistent transition across the full driveway entrance and boundaries.

Solution

Checked and prepared the existing concrete surface and driveway edges.
Installed reinforcement mesh to help control movement and reduce the risk of cracks reflecting through the new finish.
Mixed and laid the Vuba Poseidon resin bound aggregate over the prepared base.
Hand trowelled the surface to create a smooth, consistent finish across the driveway.
