CP Driveways provides full asphalt driveway replacement throughout Nottingham and the NG11 area. When a tarmac or asphalt driveway has deteriorated beyond what resurfacing or repairs can fix, a full replacement is the right answer. We remove the failed surface, prepare the ground correctly and lay a new asphalt driveway that will perform well for years. We have been replacing driveways across Nottingham for 20 years and offer free quotes on all asphalt driveway replacement work.
More Information
An asphalt driveway needs replacing rather than resurfacing when the sub-base has failed, when the surface is breaking up in large areas, when there is significant settlement or when the drainage is no longer working properly. If the problems are widespread and structural, a new layer on top of the existing surface will not last. We assess every driveway honestly and only recommend a full replacement when it is genuinely the better long-term option.
When we carry out an asphalt driveway replacement, we excavate the full depth of the existing surface and base, remove all material from site and start fresh. We lay a compacted sub-base of MOT Type 1 to the correct depth before any asphalt goes down. Getting this right is what gives the new driveway its longevity. We include all excavation, disposal and base preparation in our replacement quotes so there are no hidden costs.
Once the base is prepared, we lay fresh asphalt to the correct depth, compact it thoroughly and finish the edges neatly with kerb restraints where needed. We build correct drainage falls into the surface so water runs away from the property. The result is a smooth, level driveway that looks great, drains well and is built to last.
An asphalt driveway replacement in Chilwell involved a driveway that had been patched and bodged over a number of years to the point where it was more patch than original surface. The sub-base had failed in multiple areas and resurfacing was not going to solve the problem. We excavated the whole drive, put in a proper sub-base and laid a new asphalt surface. The homeowner had put up with the old drive for far too long and the difference the replacement made to the front of the house was significant.
