Tarmac Laying Contractors in Groundwell โ what to expect
For homeowners across Groundwell and the surrounding SN25 area, the decision to resurface a driveway, lay a new garden path, or upgrade a private access road usually comes down to getting the preparation right. A proper tarmac laying job here in Wiltshire starts with excavating to the correct depth, then installing a well-compacted MOT Type 1 sub-base, which is where a lot of contractors earn their keepโif that foundation shifts, no amount of top dressing will save it. The surface itself typically involves an AC 20 binder course for strength, followed by an AC 10 surface course for that smooth, dark finish, all compacted with a roller or plate compactor to achieve the required density. For existing but worn driveways, a plane and overlay approach is often the more cost-effective route, provided the old base is sound; this involves milling off the top layer, applying a tack coat to bond the new material, and then laying fresh tarmac without disturbing the existing edge restraint kerbs. Many local jobs also incorporate practical touches like dropped kerbs for vehicle access, and a slight camber to manage driveway drainage away from the house, while tar and chip surfaces remain a popular, textured option for longer private drives. Rather than guessing which method suits your property best, it makes sense to compare a few local quotes and let a contractor assess the ground conditions firsthand.
