Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a tarmac driveway last?
A professionally installed tarmac driveway typically lasts 20–30 years. Regular sealing every 3–5 years helps maintain its condition and extend its lifespan.
Can tarmac be laid over my existing driveway?
In some cases yes, if the existing surface is structurally sound. We'll assess this during the free site survey. Often, a fresh installation on a properly prepared sub-base gives the best long-term result.
How long does tarmac take to cure?
Tarmac is generally ready to walk on within a few hours and ready for vehicles within 24–48 hours, depending on weather conditions.
Can I have a coloured tarmac driveway?
Yes — coloured tarmac is available in red, green and other shades. It's a great way to add character while keeping the benefits of a tarmac surface.
Do you add block paving borders?
Absolutely. Block paving borders and edging are a popular addition to tarmac driveways, adding definition and kerb appeal. We'll discuss options during the site survey.
