Services
Tarmac Surfacing
We provide durable tarmacadam surfacing for driveways, car parks, and private roads. Our solutions use high-quality materials to ensure longevity and resistance to heavy traffic. Ideal for residential, industrial, and agricultural sectors, our surfacing combines modern machinery with traditional hand-lay techniques for precision and cost-effectiveness.
Surface Dressing
Surface dressing involves spraying hot bitumen followed by chippings to seal and protect existing surfaces. We use 6mm or 10mm chippings in colours like Ghyll Scar Granite and Pink Granite. This method is cost-effective, weather-resistant, and extends the lifespan of roads and car parks.
Car Park Surfacing
Our car park surfacing solutions cater to commercial and industrial clients. We use heavy-duty tarmac materials to withstand high traffic volumes. Projects include private roads, haulage yards, and farm roads, ensuring durability and compliance with safety standards for long-term performance.
Private Road Surfacing
We construct and resurface private roads using porous and non-porous materials tailored to specific needs. Applications include silage pits, sports areas, and domestic driveways. Our process ensures proper drainage, durability, and aesthetic appeal, with options for decorative finishes.
Driveway Construction
Specialising in domestic driveways, we use fine-graded tarmac for smooth, visually appealing finishes. Our team handles curb drops and vehicle crossings, ensuring compliance with local regulations. Projects are completed efficiently, with minimal disruption and a focus on client satisfaction.
