Tarmac is known for its durability, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness. It can withstand heavy loads, is resistant to weathering, and provides a smooth driving surface. However, it may not offer the aesthetic appeal of some other materials like block paving or natural stone.
Regular maintenance can help prevent tarmac damage. This includes filling cracks promptly, keeping the surface clean from debris, applying sealcoating for protection, and avoiding heavy vehicles or machinery on the surface.
Yes, if the existing tarmac is in relatively good condition, it can be resurfaced. The old surface is cleaned, cracks are repaired, and a new layer of tarmac is applied. Resurfacing is a cost-effective way to refresh the appearance and extend the life of your driveway.
Tarmac can deteriorate due to various factors such as weathering, UV exposure, heavy traffic, water infiltration, freeze-thaw cycles, and chemical damage. Over time, these factors can lead to cracks, potholes, and surface degradation.
A well-installed and properly maintained tarmac driveway can last around 15-20 years or more. Regular maintenance, such as resealing every few years, can extend its lifespan.
The process involves preparing the base, adding a sub-base layer if needed, applying a binder course, followed by a wearing course of tarmac. The mixture is then rolled and compacted to create a smooth surface. Proper drainage and edging are also crucial for a quality installation.
Patching involves filling potholes and damaged areas with fresh tarmac to restore the surface. It typically requires cleaning the area, applying a binder, adding tarmac mix, and compacting it properly.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning debris, keeping it sealed every few years to protect against weathering and UV damage, and promptly repairing any cracks to prevent water infiltration. Avoid using harsh chemicals or de-icing salts that can damage the surface.
