Tarmac driveway repairs in Wimbledon
Tarmac driveway repairs in Wimbledon start with the parts you won't see: how deep the ground is dug, how much stone goes back in, and where the rain will run once the drive is sealed.

What is included in 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
- Dig out and replace failed sub-base, compact in layers
- Bond coat to the cut faces and base
- Hot binder and surface course laid flush and rolled
- Edge restraint replaced where the side has crumbled
