Re-binding loose aggregate
Loose Stone & Aggregate Repair
If your resin surface is shedding stone, the bond has failed in that area. We re-bind loose and patchy aggregate and colour-match the repair so the stone locks back in and stays put.
What you get
Stopping the scatter for good
Loose stone on a bound surface isn’t normal wear — it means the resin bond has broken down. We re-bind the area so it stops shedding.
Re-bound aggregate
Loose and patchy areas are re-bound so the stone locks firmly back into the surface.
Colour-matched
We match your existing blend so the repaired area blends with the rest of the surface.
Cause identified
We check why the bond failed — wear, weather, or a thin original application — and treat accordingly.
No more scatter
Once re-bound, the area stops shedding stone onto lawns, paths and into the house.
Edge and high-wear focus
Loosening often starts at edges and turning points; we target these wear areas.
Resin-safe products
Compatible resin only, so the re-bound area matches and lasts.

Why choose us
Loose stone means a bond has failed — not that resin sheds
A correctly installed resin bound surface shouldn’t shed stone at all. When it does, the resin-to-aggregate ratio was likely too low, the application too thin, or the surface has reached genuine wear in a high-traffic spot. We identify which, then re-bind so the repair is sound rather than a temporary top-up.
Part of our resin driveway repair service — see the full range and how it fits together.
We focus on where loosening starts — edges, turning circles and high-traffic lines — because re-binding only the visible loose stone without treating the surrounding weakened area just moves the problem along.
Matching the aggregate and binding it back to the surrounding level keeps the repair from showing as a patch. The aim is a surface that looks uniform, not a visible mend.

FAQs
Loose stone repair questions
Why is my resin driveway losing stones?
On a bound surface, shedding stone means the resin bond has weakened — often from a thin or under-resined original install, weathering, or genuine wear at a high-traffic point. We identify which and re-bind accordingly.
Can the loose area be matched to the rest?
Yes — we match your aggregate blend and level the repair to the surrounding surface so it blends in.
Will it just happen again?
Not if the cause is addressed. We re-bind the surrounding weakened area, not only the visible loose stone, so the repair holds.
Is loose stone a sign the whole drive will fail?
Not necessarily. Localised loosening is a normal repair. Widespread shedding, though, can indicate an under-resined install — in which case we’ll advise on the bigger picture honestly.
How long does re-binding take?
Localised re-binding is usually a short visit, cured within around 24 hours depending on weather.
