What we do on a tarmac driveway repair

A proper tarmac repair cuts out the damaged area in a neat square, digs out any failed stone beneath, rebuilds and compacts the base, bonds the edges and lays new hot tarmac flush with the drive.

  • Find the cause: water, root, soft base or missing edge
  • Saw-cut the damaged area square, back to sound tarmac
  • Dig out and replace failed sub-base, compact in layers
  • Bond coat to the cut faces and base
  • Edge restraint replaced where the side has crumbled
