Tarmac and Asphalt Resurfacing Buckley
If your existing tarmac driveway in Buckley shows signs of deterioration – cracking, colour loss, damaged areas – resurfacing might be precisely what’s required rather than completely stripping everything away and starting from scratch. It’s a cost-effective method to revitalise your driveway’s look without the expense of full replacement.
During our free site assessment, our tarmac driveway specialists can carefully evaluate the existing surface and provide you with a detailed overview of the necessary work and the best options for proceeding.
What Is Resurfacing?
Resurfacing means laying a new layer of tarmac over your existing driveway. We don’t dig anything up – we’re simply adding a fresh wearing course on top of the current structure.
Think of it like installing new carpet over floorboards rather than replacing the complete floor. The existing base stays in place, and we typically lay 25-40mm of new tarmac on top. The outcome is a driveway that appears and performs like a completely fresh installation.
When Resurfacing Makes Sense
Surface Damage Only
If the problems are limited to the surface – colour fading, minor cracking, worn sections, patches – but the base is solid underneath, resurfacing is the perfect solution. We’re tackling the visual and surface-level issues without needless excavation work.
Solid Foundation
The key requirement is that your existing base is structurally sound. If there’s no major subsidence, large potholes, or serious structural damage, the foundation is functioning properly and doesn’t need replacement.
Budget Considerations
Resurfacing usually costs around 40-50% less than a completely new driveway. You’re saving on excavation, waste disposal, and base materials. If the base is sound, there’s no reason for spending money to replace it.
Minimal Disruption
The work is quicker – usually 1-2 days rather than 3-5 for a complete installation. Less disruption, less time with vehicles off the driveway, and you can start using it within 24-48 hours.
Another option for customers is to resurface the driveway using resin! It can completely transform the localarea for you, and since the base is already in place, you can make substantial savings.
