TARMAC DRIVEWAYS IN WOLVERHAMPTON
Tarmac is hard wearing, quick to lay and the best value per square metre for larger driveways and shared accesses. Finished with a block paved border, it looks a lot smarter than most people expect.
We lay a compacted base and a fine top layer, roll it properly and finish the edges cleanly so there is nothing to crumble away. We can also resurface existing tarmac that has cracked or worn.

WHAT'S INCLUDED
HOW WE LAY A TARMAC DRIVEWAY
SITE VISIT
We look at the existing surface, the levels and where the water runs, and tell you whether it needs a full rebuild or a resurface.
DIG OUT OR PREPARE
We remove the old surface and dig out, or clean and repair a sound base ready for an overlay.
BUILD THE BASE
We lay and compact the sub-base so the tarmac has something solid to sit on.
EDGES AND BORDER
We set edging or a block paved border to hold the edges in place and give a clean finish.
LAY AND ROLL
We lay the base course and the fine top layer while hot and roll it properly for a smooth, tight surface.
WHY TARMAC
BEST VALUE ON LARGE AREAS
Tarmac covers big driveways, farm tracks and shared accesses for less per square metre than most other finishes.
READY TO USE QUICKLY
Tarmac is laid and rolled in one go, so there is very little waiting before you can use it.
SMOOTH AND LOW MAINTENANCE
A tight, even surface with no joints, that only needs an occasional sweep.
TARMAC OPTIONS
Tarmac does not have to look plain. A few simple choices make a big difference to the finished look.
BLACK TARMAC
The classic, hard wearing finish for driveways and accesses.
RED TARMAC
A warmer colour that suits traditional brick houses.
BLOCK PAVED BORDERS
A border of block paving to frame the driveway and hold the edges.
RESURFACING
A new top layer over a sound existing base, which is quicker and cheaper than a full rebuild.
SHARED ACCESSES AND LARGE AREAS
Ideal where several houses share a drive, or for long driveways and parking areas.
DRAINAGE CHANNELS
Channel drains across the entrance or by the house to take water where it needs to go.
IS TARMAC RIGHT FOR YOU?
Tarmac is the right choice when you have a large area to cover, a shared access, or you want a hard wearing driveway at a sensible price. If you want more colour and pattern, look at block paving. If you want a smooth surface that water drains straight through, resin may suit you better. We will give you an honest view on the site visit.
