What are the benefits of a tarmac driveway?
Tarmac driveways offer several advantages, making them a popular choice for homeowners:
- Durability: Tarmac is known for its long-lasting nature, withstanding the test of time with proper care.
- Ease of Installation: Laying tarmac is straightforward on a flat, prepared surface, allowing for quick installation.
- Weather Resistance: It performs exceptionally well under various weather conditions, from intense sun to freezing temperatures.
- Uniform Appearance: Tarmac provides a smooth, uniform look that many homeowners appreciate.
- Low Maintenance: Taking care of a tarmac driveway is relatively easy, with repairs being straightforward to manage.
What are the disadvantages of a tarmac driveway?
Despite its benefits, there are some drawbacks to consider:
- Pothole Formation: Over time, tarmac can develop potholes, especially in areas with heavy vehicle traffic.
- Moss Growth: In conditions where it doesn’t dry out properly, moss can grow on the surface.
- Weed Damage: Weeds can break through tarmac, leading to cracks and compromising its integrity.
If tarmac isn’t the look you want for your home, you might want to consider concrete, brick, stone or resin driveways.
How do I know if the job has been done well?
A well-executed tarmac driveway should display:
- Proper Preparation: The ground should be correctly prepared before laying the tarmac.
- Smoothness and Evenness: The surface should be smooth and even, with no bumps or irregularities.
- Complete Coverage: Tarmac should fully cover the intended area, with no gaps or missing sections.

Other tarmac driveway FAQs
Does tarmac add to the value of a house?
Yes, a well-maintained tarmac driveway can enhance the curb appeal and value of your property.
Do you need planning permission for tarmac?
In many cases, planning permission is not required for tarmac driveways, but it’s essential to check local regulations, especially for new or significantly altered driveways.
Does water drain through tarmac?
Standard tarmac is not permeable, but porous asphalt options allow water to drain through, reducing runoff and the risk of flooding.

Job executed correctly, although quote was very high compared to few others I got after John completed it. During the work, John dropped a hammer from the ladder by mistake, which ended up damaging my neighbor property. I had to call him back once I saw the hammer in my neighbor front yard and found the smashed pieces in the front. Despite various promises of replacing/fixing/paying some compensation, it's been now 2 months and John stopped replying me. Not professional at all

Made a total mess of a small extension. Quoted 2 weeks and after 7 I sacked him off as we were going nowhere. Massive list of his work didn’t comply with building regs and ended up fitting a purlin to roof as he used wrong sized joists. I now have bits of roof hanging off after max 30 mph winds Even managed to cock guttering up so down pipe is nowhere near drains. Roof leaking and I have had to sack him off and pay another load of cash to a set of lads who can do the job. Avoid or he’ll bankrupt you
