Tarmac Laying Contractors in Westwood β what to expect
When it comes to resurfacing a tired driveway or laying a fresh private road in Westwood, the work is all about proper preparation and the right materials. A typical job starts with excavating to the correct depth and installing a MOT Type 1 sub-base, which is then compacted with a vibrating plate or a roller to create a stable foundation that won't shift under weight. From there, an AC 20 binder course is laid and levelled, followed by an AC 10 surface course for a smooth, dense finish that handles our Devon weather well. Many homeowners in Westwood also opt for a plane and overlay when the existing tarmac is sound but worn, which saves on excavation and still gives a fresh, even surface. Edge restraint kerbs are a sensible addition to keep the tarmac from feathering at the edges, and if youβre linking to the road, dropped kerbs need to be arranged with the council beforehand. Driveway drainage is another consideration, especially on sloping plots, and a good contractor will always grade the surface to shed water away from the house. For paths around the property, a lighter tar and chip finish can be a cost-effective alternative, though it lacks the longevity of a full tarmac laying job. If youβre in the EX17 area or just outside Westwood, itβs worth getting a few local quotes to compare prices and methodsβno pressure, just see what feels right for your drive.
