VubaMac Base

VubaMac is a patented system engineered for durability and sustainability. Designed as a reduced-dig, environmentally friendly base, it is suitable for pedestrian and heavy vehicle traffic applications. The system incorporates Vuba’s SRM base layer, VubaMac Resin mixed with recycled aggregates, and is finished with the Vuba Stone Topping System, creating a fully permeable surface solution.

VubaMac Application

Recognizing the environmental and structural benefits early on, Virginia-based installer The Concrete Wizard partnered with local municipalities to unlock grant funding for homeowners. Eligible projects converting impermeable surfaces to permeable using the VubaMac and Vuba Stone system qualify for government grants of up to $14 per square foot, with a cap of $20,000 per property.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Why should VubaMac be used over other bases such as Concrete of Asphalt?

VubaMac is a fully permeable base system designed to outperform traditional options like concrete and asphalt. VubaMac allows water to drain directly through the surface, helping to prevent flooding and comply with modern drainage regulations. It is specifically manufactured to bond perfectly with Vuba Stone topping, creating a seamless and durable finish. With its flexibility, VubaMac performs exceptionally well in extreme climates, handling freeze-thaw cycles without damage. It’s quick to install, eco-friendly, and ideal for both residential and commercial projects where longevity, appearance, and performance matter.

  • Like the Vuba Stone topping, does VubaMac have recommended depths based on the type of traffic it will receive?

Yes, VubaMac is installed at different depths depending on the type of traffic the surface will be exposed to. We recommend a depth of ½ inch for pedestrian areas, 1¼ inches for vehicles driving on and off, and 1½ inches for areas with turning or heavy-duty vehicle traffic.

The application of SRM Mesh also varies based on traffic type to enhance strength and durability. For full guidance, refer to our Base Build-Up Sheet available in the Technical Downloads section.

  • How long should I wait before applying Vuba Stone over Freshly installed VubaMac base?

The Vuba Stone topping can be applied over the VubaMac base on the same day, as VubaMac is a fast-curing system. For optimal results, we recommend installing the topping within one week to create a stronger monolithic bond between the layers.
