Tarmac Laying Contractors in Redland β what to expect
For homeowners across Redland, having a worn or uneven driveway resurfaced properly is about more than kerb appealβitβs about long-term practicality and safety. A typical tarmac overlay in BS6 begins with a careful survey, then the existing surface is planed to remove any raised lips or failed patches, leaving a clean, stable base. Beneath that, ground preparation is key: contractors set out edge restraint kerbs to hold the material in place, then lay and compact an AC 20 binder course to create a strong, level foundation. After that, an AC 10 surface course is applied and finished with a roller to give that smooth, dense texture you can drive on straight away. Where the ground is soft or poorly drained, a full dig-out and re-lay using MOT Type 1 sub-base, compacted in layers with a plate compactor, is often the safest route. For lighter jobs like garden paths or a small private road, tar and chip or a simple plane and overlay can work well, though a tack coat is always needed between old and new asphalt to ensure a proper bond. Dropped kerbs for vehicle access need to be planned with the local council, and driveway drainage should be checked to avoid pooling water. If youβre weighing up options in Redland, itβs worth getting a few local quotes to see what contractors suggest for your specific plot, as conditions vary from street to street across this part of Bristol.
