As winter fades and the days get longer, spring is the perfect time to rejuvenate your resin-bound surfaces. Over the colder months, dirt, grime, and debris may accumulate, dulling the vibrant look of your driveway or pathways. At Poly Up, we provide expert maintenance tips to ensure your surfaces stay as pristine as the day they were installed.
1. Start with a Thorough Sweep
Begin your spring-cleaning routine with a thorough sweep using a soft-bristled broom. This removes loose dirt, leaves, and other debris that can accumulate during winter. Sweeping regularly prevents organic matter from breaking down and staining your surface.
2. Wash Away the Winter Grime
A low-pressure jet wash is your best friend for cleaning resin-bound surfaces. Avoid using high-pressure washers, as these can damage the resin layer. Instead, gently rinse the surface with clean water to remove stubborn dirt and grime.
3. Check for Stains
Resin surfaces resist most stains, but oil spills or plant debris can leave marks over time. For tougher stains, use a mild detergent and a soft brush to scrub the area gently. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive tools that can damage the resin.
4. Inspect for Damage
Winter weather can sometimes leave minor damage, such as small cracks or chips. Inspect your surface closely and address any issues promptly. Poly Up’s team is always on hand to repair damage and ensure your surface remains in top condition.
5. Refresh the Edges
The edges of your driveway or pathway can sometimes gather dirt and weeds. Take the time to clean these areas thoroughly and remove any overgrown vegetation. A neat edge enhances the overall appearance of your outdoor space.
6. Consider a Professional Cleaning Service
Consider a professional service if your driveway or pathway needs more intensive cleaning. At Poly Up, we offer specialised cleaning options, including our free 12-month cleaning service, to ensure your surface maintains its original beauty.
7. Plan for Seasonal Maintenance
Spring cleaning is just one part of maintaining your resin-bound surface. Develop a seasonal maintenance routine to keep it looking its best throughout the year. Regular cleaning, inspections, and occasional resealing can extend your surface’s life.
