What we do on a new tarmac driveway

Full dig-out, compacted stone sub-base, binder course and a fine surface course, edged and drained.

  • Dig to formation level, usually around 230–250 mm below finished height
  • Geotextile membrane where the ground is soft or clay
  • Binder course (AC 20 dense), about 50–60 mm, laid hot and rolled
  • Surface course (AC 6 dense), about 20–30 mm, laid hot and rolled
  • Falls set so water runs to a channel, gully or soft landscaping
