Tarmac Driveways in Thornbury, Gloucester, Bristol and the Surrounding Areas

It comprises crushed stone and tar, providing a smooth and long-lasting surface. As professional tarmac contractors operating in Thornbury, Gloucester, Bristol and the surrounding areas, our team at Acorn Surfacing believe tarmac is an excellent choice for homeowners and businesses looking to enhance their property’s kerb appeal while ensuring a sturdy and reliable driveway or car park.

Cost-Effective Solutions for New Driveways

Maintaining a tarmac driveway is straightforward. Regular sweeping and occasional washing with a hose can keep the surface clean. It is also advisable to inspect the surface periodically for any signs of wear or damage and address them promptly. Having the tarmac resealed every few years by our contractors can extend its lifespan and maintain its appearance.

The surface is also relatively easy to fix. Small cracks or holes can be filled with a cold-lay patch. For more extensive tarmac repairs, driveway resurfacing may be required, in which we apply a new layer over the existing surface.

Tarmac is an environmentally friendly driveway option. It is fully recyclable and can be reused in other construction projects. Additionally, modern tarmac formulations often include recycled materials, reducing the need for new raw materials and lowering the environmental impact.
