Tarmac Driveways in Andover & Newbury

Tarmac remains one of the most popular choices for driveways, and it’s easy to see why — it’s smooth underfoot, quick to lay, and stands up well to daily use, whatever the weather throws at it. We’ve been laying tarmac driveways across Hampshire and Berkshire for over 60 years.

Tarmac Driveways in Newbury

We regularly work on tarmac driveways in and around Newbury too, from small resurfacing jobs to complete new installations for larger properties.

Why Choose Tarmac

Tarmac is hard-wearing, low maintenance, and easy to keep looking good — a quick jet wash is usually all it needs. It also handles our British weather well, without cracking or shifting the way some other surfaces can over time.

We can also resurface over an existing tarmac driveway in many cases, which is often a quicker way to freshen up a tired-looking drive.

Our Installation Process

Every tarmac job starts with proper groundwork — this is what makes the difference between a driveway that lasts and one that doesn’t. We prepare a solid base, lay the tarmac to the right depth, and finish with a neat, even edge, so the result looks as good as it performs.

What Our Customers Say

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a tarmac driveway take to install?

Most domestic driveways can be completed within a few days, depending on size and ground conditions. We’ll give you a clear timescale as part of your quote.

How long before I can drive on my new tarmac driveway?

We’ll let you know exactly when it’s safe to use, based on the weather and how the surface has settled — our team will talk you through the aftercare on the day.

Does a tarmac driveway need much maintenance?

Very little. An occasional jet wash and keeping an eye out for any small cracks is usually all that’s needed to keep it looking good for years.

Can you lay tarmac over my existing driveway?

In many cases, yes — resurfacing over a sound existing base can be a quicker option than starting from scratch. We can advise after taking a look.
