A new driveway or a new surface?
Resurfacing means laying a new surface over an existing drive. If the base underneath is damaged, it may need repairing or replacing first.

From the ground up
A firm base for your new driveway
Tarmac needs a firm base to carry the weight of your car. The borders help hold the edges in place, and the slope lets rainwater drain away. These parts of the job matter just as much as the finished surface.
Check the old driveway
Look for sinking, damaged edges and puddles, and check access for equipment.
Build the base and borders
Prepare firm support for the tarmac and a route for rainwater to drain away.
Lay the tarmac
Lay and roll the surface, finish the edges and explain when you can use the drive.

What goes into the driveway price?
Replacing the whole drive involves different work from adding a new surface. The size, ground condition, access, borders and drains all affect the price.

Tarmac driveway questions
Can my old driveway be resurfaced?
It may be possible if the base is firm and there is room for an extra layer of tarmac. Sinking, cracks or puddles may mean repairs are needed first.
Can I add a block border?
A block border can give the tarmac a neat edge. Choose the colour and width with the driveway layout, and leave room for any drains.
When can I park on a new surface?
Your installer should tell you when it is safe to park. The weather and materials used can change the waiting time, so follow the advice for your driveway.
