Tarmac Laying Contractors in Lydcott — what to expect
When it comes to resurfacing a tired driveway, laying a fresh path, or upgrading a private road in Lydcott, the work always begins beneath the surface, with a properly graded MOT Type 1 sub-base compacted in layers using a vibrating plate or, for larger areas, a smooth-drum roller. From there, an experienced local contractor will typically lay an AC 20 binder course to give the structure its strength, followed by an AC 10 surface course for a clean, dense finish that stands up to Devon’s wet winters. Many older drives in the EX32 area benefit from a plane and overlay, where the existing tarmac is milled down and a new layer is applied with a tack coat to ensure a strong bond, saving the cost and disruption of a full dig-out. For those who prefer a more traditional look, a tar and chip surface is also a practical option, offering excellent grip on sloped plots. Edge restraint kerbs are often fitted to keep the new material locked in place, and if the property fronts a public highway, a properly approved dropped kerb is essential for vehicle access. Proper driveway drainage is another key consideration, particularly on Lydcott’s gentle inclines, to prevent water pooling and surface degradation over time. Whether you need a compact parking area or a longer private road, the right approach depends on your ground conditions and budget, so it’s worth speaking to a few local firms to compare quotes and find a solution that suits your property.
