New Tarmac Driveway in Gatley, Stockport
A New Driveway in Gatley, Stockport, laid to Perfection!
Have you got an awkward piece of land outside the front of your house, or is their limited room for parking cars? Have you ever thought of taking down a wall on your driveway to create a wider, more accessible space? Doing this could improve the look of the driveway as well as its practical use. That’s what we did for a client who wanted a tarmac driveway in Gatley, Stockport.
Our client wanted to open up the driveway, so we took the wall down that divided the driveway from the public footpath. This gave wider access to the front of the house. We laid base tarmac first. This is also known as a binder course and is a layer of asphalt with larger aggregates and higher bitumen content. It is designed to provide a solid sub-base and is ideal for supporting heavy vehicles because of its dense nature, so perfect for a new driveway in Gatley, Stockport.
Once the base tarmac was in place we then used 6mm SMA topping of tarmac for the finish. 6mm SMA is particularly suited to residential driveways as it is more resistant to the scuffing action of vehicles turning in confined spaces. It’s the right material to be used for a new driveway in Gatley, Stockport.
We picture framed the tarmac driveway in Gatley, Stockport with Marshalls Argent block paving. The block paving followed the curve of the bay window and straight lines around the porch defining the perimeter of the driveway.
We also continued to use the same tarmac down the side of the house to create a path linking the front to the back of the property. You can see what the new driveway in Gatley, Stockport, looks like from the photographs included. A beautiful neat, tidy, space!
