Our Tarmac Services.

Tarmac is an extensively used surfacing material for roads, car parks, airports, and driveways. It is also identified as asphalt or blacktop, and consists of a fusion of aggregates – gravel or crushed stone and bitumen, the latter derived from crude oil, and is an adhesive black substance. The product is then heated and mixed which then creates a malleable material which can be spread and compressed onto a prepared surface.

Tarmac has many benefits as it can resist harsh weather conditions and provides exceptional water resistance protecting the underlying layers from water seepage and therefore prohibiting damage, it is also able to endure heavy traffic loads. The lifespan of Tarmac can also be extended as it can be easily resurfaced and repaired.
