Why us
30+ years on the tools across Surrey & Hampshire. Family-run, fully insured, no subcontracted crews.
Local factors we plan around
- clay-heavy gardens that need deeper sub-base than the standard 150mm
- older properties where the existing apron sits below pavement level
- shared driveways where the join into the neighbour's surface needs careful matching
- sloped plots that need ACO drainage at the threshold to keep water away from the house
Frequently asked questions
- How long does a tarmac driveway take?
- Most domestic driveways are completed in 3-5 working days from excavation to final roll.
- How long until I can drive on it?
- Foot traffic the same day, light cars after 24 hours, heavy vehicles after 5-7 days.
- Do you offer a guarantee?
- Yes - all workmanship is guaranteed and we're fully insured.
- Can you repair an existing tarmac driveway?
- Yes, we patch potholes, overlay tired surfaces and re-edge where needed.
- Does a new tarmac driveway need planning permission?
- Permeable installations or properties draining to a lawn / soakaway are normally permitted development. We'll confirm the right SuDS approach on site.
