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
Saw-cut the damaged area square, back to sound tarmac
Dig out and replace failed sub-base, compact in layers
Joints sealed to stop water getting under the patch
