Tarmac Laying Contractors in Ellingham — what to expect
Tarmac driveways in Ellingham and the surrounding BH24 area are a familiar sight, and for good reason: a well-laid surface of AC 20 binder course followed by an AC 10 surface course, all properly compacted with a roller, gives a smooth, hard-wearing finish that stands up to the damp Hampshire winters. When an existing driveway has sunk or cracked, a plane and overlay is often the sensible route, saving the disruption of a full dig-out, though the old surface must be sound and the new layer bonded with a tack coat to prevent slippage. For fresh paths or private road surfacing, the groundwork matters most—a firm MOT Type 1 sub-base, spread and plate-compacted in thin layers, is what stops future ruts and potholes, and it's worth checking that edge restraint kerbs are set before the tarmac goes down. Skilled local contractors also handle details like dropped kerbs for vehicle access and can advise on driveway drainage, since a camber or gentle fall to a gully keeps water from pooling. Tar and chip is a cheaper alternative for long rural tracks, but for a proper driveway finish, most people stick with tarmac. If you’re planning this kind of work in Ellingham, it pays to speak to two or three local firms and compare quotes—not just on price, but on the spec they propose for your ground conditions.
