Recently, iDream Solutions had been called to install a sleek resin driveway, with a brick edge, leaving it spacious and smooth parking area thanks to our professional team. The unique mix of dune resin blend and brindle block border has complimented the property beautifully, causing it to come up much brighter than before.
To keep the Driveway easy access, the team made sure to level off the connection between the drive and pavement to create a smooth entrance to the long, sweeping drive. Along with this, the driveway was kept simplistic to keep in style with the exterior of the home – the natural stone colour complimenting the white of the house perfectly. The well landscaped garden along with the low-maintenance driveway means the home owners do not have to worry about any extra costs or pressures.
Resin bound surfaces are the 21st century alternative to tarmac, concrete or paving stones as there are no loose stones and any colour or pattern can be achieved. It is primarily gravel or stone bound in resin to give a smooth trowelled finish, achieving a smart and modern finish to your home.

Back to Case StudiesAs a part of iDream Solutions resin bound surfacing services, we called in to see the lovely owners of the beautiful ‘Upton barn and walled garden’ wedding venue earlier today. After completing the resin surfacing for them in April 2024. It was fantastic to come back and see the area looking as pristine as it did when we finished the project.
If you are ever looking for somewhere stunning to have that special day it would be here. Even after heavy footfall throughout the year, it looks like it was finished yesterday. This commercial project perfectly displays how durable our resin truly is.
This beautiful venue involves a resin pathway to refurbish the outdoor wedding aisle, along with a large patio, spreading out for guests to enjoy. This project has a perfect finish from the inside of the gazebo to the patio stairs. The design allowed for all of the areas of the venue to be seamlessly connected, providing functionality and sense of togetherness to the space.
The colour for this project was chosen from our wide range of resin colours, complimenting the aesthetic perfectly, making for a ‘dreamy’ place to have your big day. As well as the colour options available, there are many practical reasons to have resin in your space too:

Back to Case StudiesOur client, a keen gardener with a beautiful front garden, wanted a practical yet visually appealing solution for navigating her outdoor space. The goal was to create a pathway that allowed easy access to garden beds and seating areas, enabling her to maintain her plants comfortably and enjoy the garden.
The design involved a meandering resin pathway that gently curved around the garden beds, offering easy access to key areas, including the garden benches. This design allowed the pathway to blend seamlessly with the natural flow of the landscape, complementing the garden’s aesthetics while providing functionality.
For this project, we chose the ‘Moonshadow Blend’ stone – a unique mix of black and light grey stones. This combination not only offered a visually striking contrast to the greenery but also provided practical benefits, such as:
Why This Project Stands Out: This resin pathway project is a prime example of how functionality can be combined with aesthetic appeal. Resin pathways offer exceptional accessibility, making them an ideal choice for residential properties. With a wide range of colour options, homeowners can easily match the pathway to the style and character of their home, ensuring it enhances the overall look of the property.
For a client like this keen gardener, the resin pathway provided easy access to different parts of the garden, allowing her to maintain her plants with minimal effort. Its low-maintenance nature ensures that the pathway remains in excellent condition throughout the year, without the need for frequent upkeep. This balance of practicality and beauty is what makes resin pathways a standout solution for residential landscapes.
Back to Case StudiesIn April, iDream Solutions designed and installed impressive resin bound driveway surfacing around a stunning property in the heart of Devon. Our orchid and darker bespoke resin bound blend was used to brighten and modernise this property, whilst also complementing the surrounding grassy areas and flower beds nicely.
The vibrant and uniform resin driveway covered a large surface area at the front of the property and continued down a narrower path next to the front door.
When deciding what type of driveway surface to choose for their property, the owners advised us they wanted something that would be low-maintenance, long-lasting and attractive. Resin bound pathways immediately came to mind, as we knew this would be the most suitable option based on the property’s size, the shape of the area and the customer’s budget.
There are several benefits to choosing iDream Solutions’ resin driveways Devon, for example:
So, why choose our Devon resin pathways? At iDream Solutions, our team of Devon driveway contractors have been committed to providing an exceptional level of service to all of our customers for over 10 years.
We have transformed hundreds of driveways in this time, and have since built up an impressive portfolio of case studies. Additionally, the team have worked in a number of different locations across Devon.
Back to Case StudiesOur team recently helped transform a customer’s Devon driveway, in Exeter, into a large, easily accessible space which could fit multiple cars.
The existing space included a short driveway in front of the family garage, a narrow pathway leading to the front door, a patch of lawn and a small gravelled area beneath the front window.
The owners wanted to try to combine all the existing elements and create a driveway which could be easily maintained with additional car parking spaces. To turn their vision into reality, our iDream Solutions team transformed the existing driveway by completing the following:

Back to Case StudiesiDream Solutions recently had the opportunity to help transform one of Devon’s most iconic castles, Powderham Castle with our resin bound surfacing . The fortified manor house just outside of Exeter has played host to many events over the years including, weddings, food fayres, Christmas light shows and Radio One’s Big Weekend. Powderham Castle is still owned and run by the Courtenay family after it was first built by Sir Philip Courtenay in 1390.
Powderham Castle needed new pathways installed around their new toilet blocks and outhouses placed around the estate for visitors to use. The project requirements included:
Working in close partnership with the Courtenay family and estate management team, we designed a comprehensive surfacing solution that honoured the castle’s heritage while meeting contemporary safety and durability standards. Our team selected barley butter blended resin bound pathways from our extensive range of surfacing solutions.
This specific resin blend was chosen for its perfect harmony with the castle’s natural countryside environment and traditional aesthetic appeal, ensuring the new pathways appeared as a natural extension of the historic landscape rather than a modern intrusion.
The new resin bound pathways around the grounds and buildings were selected for this project over our range of other surfacing solutions, thanks to the barley butter blended resin’s attractive appeal and range of beneficial properties including:
The completed pathway renovations have significantly improved visitor accessibility throughout Powderham Castle’s grounds while preserving the estate’s historic character. The new resin bound surfaces provide safe, attractive routes connecting visitor facilities with the main castle areas, enhancing the overall experience for the thousands of guests who visit annually.
If you have an area on your commercial or residential property that would benefit from a new resin bound surface, at iDream Solutions, we offer a wide range of resin solutions in various colours, styles and textures to suit any project across Devon.

Back to Case StudiesiDream Solutions worked closely with this client to ensure their vision came to life. Transforming their old patio pathways and areas into low-maintenance, weatherproof and attractive resin-bound pathways and patio areas.
The resin pathways have transformed the appearance of this client’s outdoor space. iDream Solutions springtime resin was used to create a natural, attractive and bright exterior which can be enjoyed all year round. All external pathways and patios were completed in the same resin for a seamless design throughout the property.
The new springtime resin gives the appearance of individual pebble and stone pathways, without the hassle of maintaining a loose stone path. The edges of the pathway have been expertly finished with an attractive brick edge, creating a divide between the garden and the pathway.
Transforming their outdoor space from the old and faded patio slabs to the brand new, attractive resin, does more than just lift the exterior appearance. The weed-resistant material reduces the amount of maintaining the pathways and outside space need for a high-quality and attractive appearance.
Unlike paving slabs, which can collect water and become icy and slippery when wet, the resin is manufactured with a permeable material, meaning water will not collect on the surface and ice should not form. So the owners of this home can walk on their brand new pathways all year round without having to worry.
The iDream Solutions Team works hard to transform residential properties to match our clients’ visions for their homes, that they can enjoy whatever the weather. With our wide range of colours and textures, there is a product for everyone.
Our team have earned their reputation and can provide their five-star service around devon.

Back to Case StudiesThe iDream Solutions team recently embraced the British autumn weather to transform a Newton Abbot tarmac driveway into an aesthetically pleasing and smooth driveway with our brindle-coloured resin bound surfacing. The original driveway had a tarmac surface with a block paving pathway, while it was practical and provided a reliable and smooth driveway, it was not in keeping with the house’s character.
At iDream Solutions, we regularly transform properties’ exterior experiences with our range of driveway landscaping and surfacing solutions. The homeowners wanted a practical, attractive and seamless design from the road to the front door, which was in keeping with the colour of the home.
We recommended our brindle resin for the driveway and path combined with some neat block edging at the base of the driveway. The new brindle resin driveway with the matching resin bound pathway breathed a new lease of life into the property, with a sophisticated and elegant touch, especially with the appearance of the red brick road before reaching the driveway itself.
The new resin driveway and pathway not only helped to elevate the appearance of the exterior and potentially increased their property’s curb value, but resin bound surfacing also comes with a variety of beneficial properties, including:
The team at iDream Solutions enjoyed transforming the tarmac and block paving exterior into a seamless and attractive design and received some lovely feedback: “This is our drive before and after. As you can see it’s made a huge improvement to the front of our property. We were very impressed with iDream and how well it turned out.
“The weather was against us but the team managed to pick the good days and got the work completed quickly and professionally. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend iDream Solutions. Thank you!”
