Our Tarmac Installation Method
At Heritage Roadways, we follow a thorough, professional approach to ensure your tarmac driveway is built for the long haul:
- Ground Assessment and Excavation - We begin by carefully preparing the site, removing existing materials where necessary and ensuring proper levels throughout.
- Foundation Construction - A substantial base layer of compacted aggregate is installed, providing the essential stability your driveway needs.
- Tarmac Laying - Hot bitumen macadam is delivered to site and skillfully spread across the prepared foundation, creating an even surface.
- Rolling and Finishing - Heavy machinery compacts the material, eliminating air pockets and producing the characteristic smooth, hardwearing finish.
- Each stage receives meticulous attention from our experienced installers, guaranteeing results that exceed expectations.
Personalising Your Tarmac Driveway
While tarmac is often thought of as purely functional, there are numerous ways to add character and distinction:
Colour Selection

Choose between classic charcoal black or the warmer tones of red tarmac
Border Features

Enhance the edges with brick pavers, natural stone, or concrete kerbing for added definition
Porous Options

Consider permeable tarmac if drainage is a priority for your property
Surface Variations

Different aggregate sizes and treatments can create subtle texture differences

- Residential Driveways - Perfect for family homes requiring dependable, everyday access
- Shared Access Roads - Handles multiple vehicles with ease
- Commercial Properties - Suitable for business premises needing durable forecourt areas
