Tarmac Services In Newbridge
Every tarmac job in Newbridge is decided by what is already there. Where the old tarmac or concrete is in good standing we can lay over it, but a driveway that is sinking has to be dug out and given a new 804 base.
Customers here use tarmac, tarmacadam and asphalt for the same work, and a lot of people say SMA, short for stone mastic asphalt.
Tarmac Driveways
Tarmac driveways in Newbridge are laid 75-100mm deep in two courses, over around 150mm of 804 rolled by a machine roller of around 20 ton. We fit the block paving or granite border before any tarmac. See our tarmac driveways for border colours.
Tarmac Laneways
A rural lane in Newbridge is lightly graded before the tarmacadam goes on top. We lay it in one run, with the stopping points planned first. The edges are retained and the falls run to channel drains or a soakaway on our tarmac laneways.
Commercial Tarmac Services
Car parks and private estate roads around Newbridge carry heavy vehicles, so we lay around 150mm of tarmac over 200-300mm of sub-base. Heavy duty use waits 48 hours so it can cure properly. Industrial yards are part of our commercial tarmac services too.
Driveway Resurfacing
An overlay goes over existing tarmac or concrete, or any hard standing, in Newbridge, and takes 1 day. We apply a bitumen sealer for adhesion, then lay and roll in the new tarmac. Tight levels mean driveway resurfacing starts by chipping out the perimeters.
Tar And Chip Driveways
For tar and chip in Newbridge we spray hot bitumen over an 804 base, scatter the chip while it is hot and roll it in by machine. The base has give, so the stones on our tar and chip driveways do come loose over time.
