Smooth, Barrier-Free Surfaces for Wheelchair and Mobility Users

Access should never be conditional on the weather or the surface beneath your wheels. Kent Resin Driveways installs resin bound accessible surfaces that remove the barriers gravel, block paving, cracked concrete and uneven slabs place in the path of wheelchair users, mobility scooter riders, walking frame users and anyone whose movement depends on a smooth, stable, predictable ground plane.

What Makes Resin Bound the Superior Accessible Surface

Gravel resists wheels and sticks. Block paving joints jolt, jar and catch footrests. Cracked slabs tilt and rock. Resin bound paving eliminates every one of these obstacles in a single, seamless layer. The trowelled finish is uniformly flat, firmly bonded and free from gaps, ridges or loose particles. Wheelchair castor wheels track straight, powered chairs and scooters roll without vibration and walking aids find reliable purchase at every point.

Year-Round Reliability

Puddles conceal broken ground. Wet leaves turn paths into ice rinks. Frost transforms standing water into a sheet of danger. Resin bound paving is permeable, so rainfall passes straight through rather than pooling. The chance of ice forming drops dramatically, and the aggregate texture maintains grip even when the surface is damp. For properties across Kent, where damp conditions can persist from October through to April, this all-season reliability is not a luxury but a necessity.

Where We Install Accessible Surfaces

Residential pathways in Tonbridge and Maidstone linking driveways to front doors. Outdoor recreation areas at care homes in Headcorn and Coxheath. Customer-facing entrances for businesses in Paddock Wood and East Malling. Communal courtyards on housing developments in Kings Hill and Snodland. Public realm paths serving community buildings in Barming and Loose. The scale varies; the commitment to barrier-free access does not.

Supporting Regulatory Compliance

A smooth, level surface with controlled gradients, no trip hazards and tactile colour contrast at transitions contributes directly to compliance with the Equality Act 2010 and Part M of the Building Regulations. We advise on ramp gradients, landing dimensions and edge detailing to help residential and commercial clients meet their legal and moral obligations.

Enduring Access With Minimal Effort

The weed-proof, joint-free finish stays flat and safe for years with nothing more than an occasional sweep. There are no slabs to re-level, no gravel to replenish and no joints to re-sand. The access you provide today remains fully functional for fifteen to twenty-five years without significant maintenance input.
