When choosing between tarmac and asphalt for your driveway, it’s important to understand the key differences so you can select the right option for your needs.
Durability: Best suited for areas with lighter traffic, offering solid resilience but slightly less long-lasting than asphalt.
Cost: Typically more cost-effective, making it a practical choice for tighter budgets.
Appearance: Features a rougher texture with a less polished look than asphalt.
Installation: Quick and straightforward to lay and repair, making it ideal for smaller-scale projects.
Durability: Exceptionally tough and hard-wearing, ideal for high-traffic driveways and more demanding use.
Cost: Carries a higher initial cost but delivers greater value over time due to its extended lifespan.
Appearance: Offers a smooth, sleek finish that can improve the overall kerb appeal of your property.
Maintenance: Needs periodic sealing but is generally more resistant to cracking than tarmac.
Select tarmac if you’re aiming for a more affordable solution for light-use driveways. Choose asphalt if you need a premium, durable finish capable of handling heavy vehicles and longer life expectancy.
Tarmac driveways are built to last, but over time they may need repairs or resurfacing to maintain both performance and appearance. At Driveway & Patio UK, we know that regular care is essential to extend the lifespan of your driveway.
By applying simple tarmac maintenance tips—like clearing debris, sealing small cracks, and keeping an eye out for early signs of wear—we can help avoid larger issues. If your driveway shows significant damage or potholes, resurfacing is often the best option. This not only restores the integrity of the surface but also refreshes the look of your property.
Our team can assess your driveway and provide expert solutions for repairs or resurfacing, helping you protect your investment and keep your driveway in excellent condition for years to come.
Most tarmac driveway installations are completed within one to three days. Tarmac’s durability combined with its quick installation makes it an ideal solution for enhancing any property’s exterior without lengthy disruption.
Before we start, we carry out a detailed site assessment to check for drainage issues and ground stability. We then select the best tarmac materials to match your project’s style and functional requirements.
No, parking should be avoided immediately after installation. Tarmac needs time to cure properly. Waiting allows the surface to harden, ensuring you benefit from a durable, attractive finish that won’t suffer early damage.
To keep your tarmac driveway in top shape, regular sweeping, prompt crack sealing, and avoiding extremely heavy loads are key. These simple maintenance steps help extend the driveway’s lifespan and preserve its appearance.
