Why choose tarmac?

Tarmacadam is still one of the most popular surfacing materials in the UK and for good reason. It is often chosen for its practicality, but it also has excellent design potential, where tarmac

Our tarmac surfacing offers a host of benefits:

Cost-effective

Tarmac is often the budget-friendly option compared to resin surfacing or block paving. This makes it perfect for large driveways or private access roads without sacrificing quality.

Speed of installation

Our team can usually provide tarmac installation in a shorter timeframe than other materials, and because it sets quickly, you can generally use your new driveway within hours of the job being completed.

Weather & water resistance

Modern tarmac is designed to withstand freezing winters and freeze-thaw cycles of the British climate. It provides an impermeable surface when it is angled correctly, it will prevent puddles from forming.

Long-lasting quality

A tarmac driveway can last for decades with a professional installation and regular maintenance. It is highly resistant to heavy impact and stays flexible enough to stop those cracks in solid concrete that are so common in laid concrete.

Low maintenance

Tarmac is a breeze to look after. Just the occasional sweep or pressure wash to keep it looking sharp, and if the surface does start to show signs of wear after many years, it can be rejuvenated with a professional seal coating.

FAQs

Is tarmac the same as asphalt?

They’re similar, but for residential driveways we tend to use bitmac because it is more resistant to scuffing from power steering on modern cars.

Can I get a new tarmac surface put down over my existing driveway?

Yes, if the base is still sound, we can resurface it. We’ll do a site survey to check.

Is tarmac available in colours other than black?

Yes, we do a popular red tarmac option that looks great, particularly on heritage-style properties.

Does tarmac melt in the summer heat?

No, modern tarmac is way more stable than older varieties, although if you are parking on a new surface and do turn your wheels during a heatwave, we recommend avoiding it.

Why is tarmac the most cost-effective option?

Tarmac is just less labour-intensive and less material-intensive than block paving or resin, so it’s the way to go for long private drives.

Are you ready to give your old, uneven driveway a top-to-bottom tarmac makeover that’ll leave you with a smooth, high-performance surface that’ll last for years to come?
