Overview

Tarmac Surfacing in Redhill

Looking for tarmac surfacing in Redhill? London Tar covers Redhill 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

FAQs

Tarmac Surfacing FAQs

Is tarmac suitable for a sloped site?

Yes. Tarmac handles gradients well and we set falls into the design so water runs off to where you want it, not towards buildings.

Can you match into an existing tarmac surface?

We cut back to a firm edge and tie the new tarmac into the old so the joint stays tight and does not lift.

How thick should a tarmac surface be?

It depends on the traffic. A footpath needs less than a road or yard carrying HGVs. We specify a base and surface course to suit the use and set it out in your quote.

How soon can I use it after laying?

Most tarmac is ready for foot and vehicle traffic within 24 to 48 hours. We confirm exact timings before we start.

Do you offer coloured tarmac?

Yes. Red and other coloured tarmacs are available where a plain black finish is not wanted — we can show you the options at the survey.
