Learn the 10 Most Common Pitfalls in Resin Bound
Resin Bound Surfacing is easy to get right and easy to get wrong. We know the most common mistakes new contractors make and how to stop that happening to you. Unlike other types of paving, resin bound cannot be patched or touched up – and so it's important to understand the fundamentals before you start.
The 2021 10,000 mile training tour.
We’re taking our Resin Bound training courses worldwide this year, offering courses across the UK, Spain and the US.
A list of these tour locations can be found under the booking section below. Our courses in Spain and the US will be offered in both English and Spanish.
What you need to know
Cost
The cost of each 1 day course is £180 + VAT (€200 + IVA / $200 + Taxes) and includes certification, a T-shirt and gourmet lunch. You will have your own resin bound kits to use on the day too.
Location
Over the last few years, the courses have been mainly held at our East Yorkshire factory. However, demand has been so great that we have decided to take the course on tour! Check the locations at the bottom for your local course.
Time
Depending on the location, the times may change slightly (check your introductory email for more details). The typical start time will be 9.30am arrival for a 10am start. And the first attendees can leave from 2.30pm, with the course finishing at 3.30pm.
Experience
You do not need any prior experience or equipment to attend the course – we have attendees from a whole variety of backgrounds. The most common attendees are landscapers and building contractors, but we also have plasterers, web developers and house developers!

"Thank you for a great day yesterday. I was really impressed with your company ethos and passion for the products, I’ve done a few jobs in bound before, but never found a supplier that I found helpful and knowledgeable until now. I now feel confident to talk to my clients about resin bound. Thanks Again!"
- Peter Caldwell
