Tarmac Driveways in Canterbury

Tarmac Driveway Contractors in Canterbury

Tarmac provides a practical and understated finish for residential driveways. Its clean appearance makes it a versatile choice for homeowners who want dependable off-street parking without introducing an overly decorative surface across the entire frontage.

We undertake both new and replacement tarmac driveways throughout Canterbury, with preparation tailored to the individual property and condition of the existing area.

New Tarmac Driveways

Creating a driveway where there is currently no off-street parking can involve substantial preparation before surfacing begins. Existing ground or other frontage materials may need to be removed and the area prepared for its new use.

A&A Construction & Surfacing undertakes groundworks and site preparation directly, allowing us to manage these stages before completing the new tarmac surface.

Replacement Driveways in Canterbury

If your existing driveway has deteriorated or no longer provides the appearance you want for the property, replacing the surface can give the entire entrance a cleaner and more consistent finish.

We assess the condition of the existing driveway before determining the work required. Where additional groundwork or preparation is needed beneath the new surface, this can be incorporated into the project.

A Clean & Practical Driveway Finish

Tarmac is well suited to homeowners looking for a driveway that prioritises practical everyday parking while maintaining a neat appearance. The continuous surface can accommodate different driveway shapes and layouts without the visual complexity of individual paving units.

This understated finish can also work particularly well when other materials are used to add detail around the entrance.

Combine Tarmac With Paving & Brickwork

A tarmac driveway does not have to mean using one material across the entire frontage. Paved paths, brickwork and landscaped areas can provide contrast around the main parking surface and help distinguish pedestrian and vehicle areas.

Our wider services include paving, landscaping and brickwork, allowing these elements to be incorporated into the project where required.

Ground Preparation From Experienced Contractors

The preparation beneath a new driveway is an important part of the overall construction. Existing surfaces, ground conditions and levels all need to be considered when establishing what work is required before the tarmac is laid.

As experienced groundwork contractors, we can undertake excavation and preparation ourselves, providing continuity from the initial site work through to the finished driveway.

Driveway Levels & Drainage

The introduction or alteration of a hard-surfaced parking area can affect the movement of water around the frontage. Existing levels and the surrounding areas therefore need to be considered when planning the driveway.

Drainage forms part of our wider services and can be incorporated into the project where required alongside the ground preparation and surfacing.

Creating New Vehicle Access

If you’re converting part of your frontage into parking for the first time, access from the highway may need to be considered alongside the driveway itself. Where a new dropped kerb is required, the crossover and private parking area can form connected parts of the overall construction.

Our experience across dropped kerbs, groundworks and surfacing allows the physical work involved in these different stages to be coordinated through one team.

Improve More Than Just the Driveway

Installing a new driveway can provide an opportunity to reconsider the wider layout of the property entrance. Existing paths may need altering, landscaped areas can be reshaped and additional paving or brickwork can be introduced around the parking space.

We can discuss these wider improvements alongside the tarmac installation where you want to update more of the frontage as part of the same project.

A Driveway Suited to Your Property

Every driveway project presents different requirements. The size and shape of the frontage, existing surfaces, boundaries and pedestrian access can all influence how the new parking area should be prepared.

We assess the individual site and proposed use before establishing the groundwork and surfacing required, whether the project involves a simple replacement or a completely new driveway.
