CP Driveways provides tarmac resurfacing throughout Nottingham and the surrounding NG11 area. If your existing tarmac driveway or path is looking tired, faded or starting to crack but the sub-base is still sound, resurfacing is a cost-effective way to get a surface that looks new again without the expense of a full dig-out and replacement. We have been carrying out tarmac resurfacing across Nottingham for 20 years and offer free quotes on all resurfacing work.
More Information
Not every worn tarmac surface is a candidate for resurfacing. The existing surface needs to be stable, reasonably level and free from significant structural failure. If the sub-base has failed and the tarmac is sinking or breaking up in large areas, a full replacement is usually the better option. We assess your driveway honestly when we come to quote and will tell you clearly whether resurfacing is a good long-term solution for your specific surface.
Before new tarmac goes down, we prepare the existing surface thoroughly. We cut back any edges that have degraded, repair any localised areas of damage and clean the surface. A tack coat is applied to help the new layer bond to the existing surface. We then lay and compact a fresh layer of tarmac to give you a smooth, even surface. The result looks and performs like a new driveway at a fraction of the cost of a full replacement.
Resurfacing is typically faster and less expensive than a full replacement because there is no need to excavate and remove the old base. Most resurfacing jobs in Nottingham can be completed in a single day. This makes it a very attractive option for homeowners who want to improve the appearance and condition of their driveway without the disruption or cost of a complete dig-out.
A tarmac resurfacing job in Wilford involved an older tarmac driveway that had faded to grey and had a number of small cracks but was otherwise structurally sound. We cleaned it up, repaired the cracked areas and laid a fresh tarmac overlay. The result looked like a completely new driveway and the homeowner saved significantly compared with a full replacement. It is a great outcome when a driveway is right for resurfacing and we are honest about when it is and when it is not.

STILL NOT SURE?
If your tarmac surface is cracking, fading and looking worn but is still relatively flat and stable, resurfacing is usually the right option. If there are large sunken areas, multiple potholes or the base has clearly failed, a full replacement is more appropriate. CP Driveways will assess your driveway and give you an honest recommendation. Call 07400203588 for a free visit.
A properly applied tarmac resurfacing in Nottingham should last 10 to 15 years depending on use and conditions. The key factors are the condition of the existing base and the quality of the preparation work. CP Driveways always prepares surfaces thoroughly before laying any new tarmac.
Tarmac resurfacing requires suitable temperatures to lay and compact properly. We avoid resurfacing in cold or frosty conditions. We will be upfront about weather-related timing when you book with us and will not carry out work in conditions that would affect the quality of the result.
