Tarmac Contractor | Planning a driveway improvement

As a well known tarmac contractor we value how important it is for any type of property to have a well installed driveway. You can increase property value and re sale desirability whilst also making a functional and aesthetically pleasing improvement.

Planning a driveway


We suggest that you always seek the advice of an industry professional before contemplating any driveway project. Whether it’s a new installation or resurfacing and repair it is important that it is dealt with by experts.

Always look to find a reputable contractor who can provide you with a portfolio of recent work and customer testimonials and recommendations. You should also check their credentials and ensure that they are insured and can provide a guarantee or warranty for any work undertaken. When embarking on such a large investment you will want to ensure the work is covered for costs in the event of problems or damage.

When making changes to your driveway; consider your neighbours and boundaries of your property. Do you need to make any enquiries as to permissions or land disputes before installing a driveway as a perimeter?

Exercise caution when it comes to cost and set up a realistic budget. Be aware you need to factor in additional costs for labour and if a project was to be delayed etc
There are also materials and expenses for hiring contractors. Ensure you incorporate all expenditure and leave some extra funds for emergencies.


If you don’t want to be burdened with the planning and work of installing a driveway yourself then hiring a professional is the best option.
