What we do on tarmac resurfacing

A new tack-coated surface course over a drive whose base is still sound: less digging, lower cost.

  • Survey of the existing base: sinking, rutting, loose edges and drainage
  • Plane or cut back at thresholds, kerbs and covers so levels still work
  • Weed treatment and a clean surface
  • New surface course, typically 25–40 mm, laid hot and rolled
  • Edges sealed and joints to existing surfaces cut neatly

Planning and kerb rules for Tipton

In England, a new hard surface over 5 m² in front of a house needs planning permission unless it is porous or drains to a lawn, border or soakaway within the property. A vehicle crossing over the footway is a separate approval, from the highway authority (the county or unitary council).
