Custom Resin Designs Questions

Most installations use two to four aggregate grades blended to a set ratio. More than four colors in a single mix risks uneven distribution as the resin cures. The contractor confirms the maximum blend for your chosen aggregates in the written scope before any material is ordered.

Yes. A contrasting border uses a separate aggregate grade laid against a temporary edge guide before the main field is poured. The inlay width and aggregate color are both specified in writing so the two sections meet cleanly at the boundary.

The written scope records the exact aggregate blend ratio and the sample reference. If the cured surface falls outside that specification, the named installer is accountable to the documented scope. That written record is the reason nothing is mixed until the spec is signed off.

High altitude means stronger UV and lower air pressure, both of which affect cure time. The contractor selects a resin binder formulated for Front Range conditions and schedules the pour to avoid temperature swings that slow or accelerate the cure unevenly.

Yes. Resin-bound surfaces are permeable regardless of the aggregate blend or border pattern. Stormwater passes through the stone matrix to the sub-base below, keeping the installation SUDS-compliant even with decorative inlays.

Delaying the written sign-off pushes the installation date and risks the selected aggregate batch being unavailable. Aggregate blends are batch-matched, so a gap between specification and order can mean a slightly different stone color in the next available batch.
