What we do on a red tarmac driveway

Red tarmac is ordinary asphalt with a red pigment, and often red aggregate, in the surface course, laid on the same sub-base and binder course as a black tarmac drive.

  • Full dig-out and MOT Type 1 sub-base, about 150 mm
  • Black AC 20 binder course, about 50–60 mm
  • Contrasting block or kerb border as edge restraint
  • Colour sample discussed before ordering
  • Falls and drainage set as for any new drive

Planning and kerb rules for Milford Haven

In Wales, new front hardstanding should be porous or drain to a permeable area within the property, and work covering 100 m² or more with drainage effects usually needs SAB approval first. If the job needs a dropped kerb, the council as highway authority approves it before any work on the footway.
