Overview
Tarmac Surfacing in Guildford
Looking for tarmac surfacing in Guildford? London Tar covers Guildford and the whole of Surrey.
Tarmac is a hard-wearing, cost-effective surface that suits almost any area that takes foot or vehicle traffic. We lay tarmac for footpaths, private roads, school grounds, playgrounds, yards and general hardstanding, using materials that meet British Standards and laying them with the right plant for a smooth, even finish.
Tarmac (bituminous macadam) is one of the most versatile surfaces available. It goes down quickly, takes traffic within a day or two, and costs less per square metre than block paving or resin. We lay it in a base course and surface course where the use demands it and roll it hot for a dense, even finish, edged neatly against kerbs, buildings and existing surfaces. The finish is only as good as the preparation, so we excavate to the right depth and compact each layer before the surface course goes on.
What’s included
- Site clearance and excavation to the correct depth
- A compacted sub-base suitable for the use
- Base and surface course tarmac, machine-laid and rolled
- Neat edges against kerbs, buildings and existing surfaces
