Every successful driveway starts below the finished surface. In Old Windsor, we assess the existing ground, levels and vehicle access before recommending excavation depth, a compacted sub-base and the appropriate asphalt build-up. This helps the finished driveway resist movement, rutting and premature cracking.
Tarmac is well suited to busy driveways because it creates a continuous, hard-wearing surface with relatively few joints. Proper compaction produces a neat finish that is comfortable to drive and walk on, while defined edges can be used to complement brickwork, paving or landscaping around the property.
Before surfacing, we check how water will move across the proposed driveway. Correct gradients and suitable drainage details are important around door thresholds, garages and public footways, helping avoid nuisance ponding and protecting the integrity of the completed work.
Resurfacing can be an efficient option when the underlying construction remains stable. Where defects originate in the sub-base, simply covering them is unlikely to solve the problem, so we will identify areas that need more substantial preparation before new tarmac is laid.
Our quotations can account for excavation, disposal, sub-base work, edging, drainage and surfacing so the scope is clear before work begins. For properties in Old Windsor (SL4 Area), the objective is a driveway that looks tidy on completion and is constructed for dependable long-term use.
