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.
- 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
- Edge restraint replaced where the side has crumbled
