Driveways

A Smooth, Solid Driveway That’s Built to Last.

We have many years of experience surfacing driveways and laying level tarmacadam. Every drive is designed around what you want, so the finished result looks great and works hard for years to come.

Tarmacadam, also known as tarmac or asphalt, is one of the most effective ways to surface a driveway. It gives a smooth, solid finish that looks professional and protects your car from uneven ground. It’s quick to lay compared with other surfaces, highly durable, and stands up well to the weather, staying safe to drive on all year round.

Already have a driveway? We can lay a new layer straight over existing concrete or worn tarmacadam. Resurfacing with a new wearing course is the quickest way to bring a tired drive back to life, with minimal cost, disruption and fuss.

Choose from red or black tarmacadam, then finish it off with kerbs, stone or pebbled edging, and a fine or grained finish. We’re happy to work with you, or your architect, to match your design plans. Every job is checked to the highest standards before we sign it off, and all of our workmanship is guaranteed.

    Tarmac driveways are popular because they are durable, relatively quick to install and easy to maintain. Their smooth, solid finish creates a neat appearance while providing a practical surface for vehicles. Tarmac is also well suited to the changing weather conditions experienced across Liverpool and the North West.

    Yes. Depending on the condition of the existing surface, it may be possible to apply a new wearing course over an existing tarmac driveway or suitable concrete base.

The existing surface should be assessed first to establish whether this approach is appropriate.

    Yes. Alpha Surfacing offers coloured tarmac options, including red and black finishes, allowing customers to choose a look that complements their property. Decorative details such as kerbs, stone edging and pebbled edging can also help create a more individual finish.

    The installation time depends on the size of the driveway, the condition of the existing ground and the amount of preparation required.

    The Benefits of Tarmac Driveways

    Tarmac is a popular choice for driveways thanks to its smooth finish, durability and practical performance. A properly prepared and installed tarmac driveway provides a solid, level surface for vehicles and can offer a cost-effective alternative to other driveway materials. It is also relatively straightforward to maintain, making it a practical option for busy households and properties where reliable vehicle access is important. With a choice of finishes and edging options available, tarmac can provide both functionality and visual appeal.

    New Driveway Installation and Existing Driveway Resurfacing

    Every driveway project has different requirements, which is why it is important to consider the condition of the existing surface and the preparation needed before work begins. Alpha Surfacing can install tarmacadam over suitable prepared ground, as well as resurface existing tarmac or concrete where conditions allow. Applying a new wearing course can be an effective way to refresh a tired-looking driveway without replacing the entire surface. We assess the project requirements to help determine the most appropriate approach for a durable, professional result.
