Tarmac Driveways

Tarmac provides a practical, hard-wearing finish for driveways of many sizes and is particularly efficient across larger areas. The quality of the finished surface depends on the preparation below it, so we establish a stable base, levels and drainage before laying and compacting the hot material for an even finish.

  • Excavation and a compacted sub-base, or overlay of an existing surface
  • Machine and hand-laid tarmac rolled to a smooth finish
  • Block or kerb edgings to define and protect the perimeters
  • Drainage falls set into the surface
  • Available coloured or decorative topping

FAQs

Tarmac Driveways questions

When can a newly laid tarmac driveway be used?

You can usually walk on it the same day and drive on it within a day or two once it has cooled and set.

Is it possible to overlay an existing driveway with tarmac?

If the existing surface is sound and well drained, an overlay is often possible and keeps the cost down. We can tell you after a survey.

What service life can a tarmac driveway provide?

A properly laid tarmac driveway has a long service life. Sealing it every few years protects the surface and keeps it looking fresh.

Is your tarmac installation covered by a guarantee?

Yes — we guarantee our workmanship and go through the details with you before we start.
