Tarmac driveways in Cardiff

  • Cost-effective

    Tarmac is usually the most economical option for big driveways, long runs and shared access.

  • Hard-wearing

    A well-laid tarmac or SMA surface stands up to heavy cars and vans and daily turning.

  • Smart finishing

    Pair it with block paving borders, kerbs or a contrasting apron to give it a clean, finished edge.

Tarmac and SMA built to last

We excavate, lay and compact a solid sub-base and set the levels and falls so water runs where it should. The surface is then laid hot and rolled to a dense, even finish.

SMA is a premium asphalt with a high stone content, often used on roads for its durability. It gives a slightly textured, very hard-wearing finish.

How long it takes

Most domestic tarmac driveways are finished quickly once the groundwork is done, but it depends on the size and the base. We’ll give you a clear timescale in your quote.

Common questions

Tarmac or resin?

Tarmac is usually cheaper and very hard-wearing. Resin gives a decorative, permeable finish with more colour choice. We’ll explain the trade-offs for your driveway at the visit.
