Tarmac Repairs in Nottingham
CP Driveways carries out tarmac repairs throughout Nottingham and the surrounding NG11 area. Potholes, cracks and sunken areas in tarmac driveways and paths can be repaired effectively without the cost of resurfacing or replacing the whole area. We cut out the damaged section properly and relay tarmac to a finish that is solid, level and closely matched to the surrounding surface. With 20 years of experience, we know how to repair tarmac in a way that lasts rather than just papering over the problem.
More Information
Cutting Out the Damage Properly
The most common mistake with tarmac repairs is simply filling a pothole without removing the failed material underneath. If the damaged tarmac and compromised base are not cut back to solid material, the repair will fail quickly. We always cut out a clean, square or rectangular area around the damage, remove all loose material and check the base below before we lay any new tarmac. This takes longer but it is the only way to do a repair that will not open up again within months.
Matching the Existing Surface
We work to match the repaired area as closely as possible to the surrounding tarmac in terms of height, texture and compaction. We compact all repairs thoroughly so there are no humps or lips at the edges. On older driveways where the original tarmac has faded to grey, there will naturally be a colour difference at first, but this weathers over time. We are always upfront about this so you know what to expect.
When Repairs Make More Sense Than Replacement
If the majority of your tarmac surface is still in good condition and only one or two areas have failed, repairs are almost always the most cost-effective solution. We assess each situation honestly. If we think the whole surface needs resurfacing or replacing to give you a good long-term result, we will say so. But where targeted repairs are the right answer, we carry them out to a standard that gives you the maximum return.
ABOUT US
A tarmac repair job in Keyworth involved a large pothole that had developed in a driveway after a very wet winter, when water got under the surface and weakened the base. We cut back to sound material, repaired the base, and laid new tarmac compacted to match the surrounding surface. A job that could have turned into a full driveway replacement was resolved properly with a targeted repair and the homeowner was happy to save the cost of a full resurface.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get tarmac repaired in Nottingham?
Call CP Driveways on 07400203588 and we will arrange a free site visit to assess the damage. We will tell you honestly what work is needed and provide a no-obligation quote. Most tarmac repairs in the Nottingham area can be carried out quickly once we have assessed the job.
How long do tarmac repairs last in Nottingham?
Properly carried out tarmac repairs in Nottingham should last many years. The key is cutting out all the failed material and addressing the base before laying new tarmac. Quick-fill repairs that do not address the underlying cause will fail again quickly. CP Driveways always repairs tarmac the right way.
Can you repair a driveway with lots of small cracks in Nottingham?
Multiple small cracks across a tarmac surface can indicate sub-base movement or water ingress. In some cases individual cracks can be filled, but if cracking is widespread, resurfacing may be a more cost-effective and longer lasting solution. CP Driveways will assess your driveway and advise honestly on the best approach. Call 07400203588 for a free visit.
