Tarmac Driveway Fitter in Headley

Tarmac Driveway Fitters in Headley — what to expect

When it comes to improving your property's kerb appeal and functionality in Headley, a professionally installed tarmac driveway offers a durable and attractive solution. Our local specialists in the RG19 postcode district understand the importance of proper sub-base preparation, ensuring a solid foundation for your new driveway. This often involves excavating the existing surface, laying and compacting a suitable aggregate sub-base, and then carefully installing edging kerbs to define the space and prevent material spread. A crucial step in tarmac driveway installation is the application of a bitumen tack coat, which acts as an adhesive layer between the sub-base and the tarmac itself. We then apply the asphalt, typically using an AC 10 base course for strength, followed by an AC 6 wearing course for a smooth, hard-wearing surface. Expert use of a vibratory roller compaction ensures the tarmac is densely laid, creating a resilient finish that can withstand regular use and varying weather conditions. We also pay close attention to the fall and drainage of the driveway, ensuring water is directed away from your property. For those seeking an alternative or an update to an existing surface, our services also extend to pattern imprint concrete overlay, offering a decorative finish that mimics the look of stone or brickwork while providing the durability of concrete.
