Tarmac Laying Contractors in Wick โ what to expect
When it comes to resurfacing a tired driveway or laying a fresh private road in Wick, the work almost always begins with a well-prepared MOT Type 1 sub-base, compacted properly with a vibrating plate or a roller depending on the span. For the tarmac itself, most local contractors will specify an AC 20 binder course followed by an AC 10 surface course, which gives a smooth, dense finish that stands up to the damp Somerset winters. If your existing tarmac is structurally sound but worn or uneven, a plane and overlay is often the more economical route, saving you the cost of full excavation; this involves milling the old surface, applying a tack coat to ensure the new layer bonds, and then laying fresh asphalt. Edges are finished with concrete or block edge restraint kerbs to keep the material locked in place, and if you need to connect to the highway, the contractor will handle the necessary dropped kerb permissions with the local authority. For lighter paths or farm tracks around the TA10 area, a tar and chip surface is a practical alternative that drains well and looks pleasantly rustic. Whatever the job, from a small garden path to a long private drive, the key is proper drainage and a solid foundation. If you are considering this work in Wick, it is worth comparing a few local quotes to see who offers the most sensible approach for your ground conditions and budget.
