Tarmac Driveways in Northampton

When you choose Swift Property Solutions, you aren't dealing with a nameless national franchise. I operate as a sole trader, which means I am personally responsible for every square metre of tarmac I lay. From the first phone call to the final roll of the surface, you deal directly with me. This accountability is why my customers trust me to deliver a high standard of work.
I am fully backed by Public Liability Insurance, providing you with total peace of mind while I am working on your property. Furthermore, all my work comes with a solid guarantee. I know that a new driveway is a significant investment, and I want you to feel confident that the job is done right the first time. I don't believe in cutting corners or using sub-par materials; I treat every home as if it were my own.

The driveway cost depends on several factors, such as the size of the area, the current state of the ground, and whether you want additional features like block paving borders. I provide free, no-obligation quotes where I can break down the costs clearly for you.

With the correct sub-base and proper drainage, a tarmac driveway can easily last 15 to 20 years. Regular maintenance and occasional resealing can extend this lifespan even further.

In some cases, yes. This is known as resurfacing or an "overlay." If your current driveway is structurally sound but looks worn out, I can clean and repair the base before laying a fresh layer of asphalt. However, if the foundation is sinking or cracked, it is always better to dig it out and start fresh.

While you can usually walk on the surface within hours, I recommend keeping cars off the drive for at least 48 hours, especially in warmer weather. This allows the material to cool and harden completely.

Both have their merits. Block paving offers more design flexibility, but tarmac is generally more affordable and requires less maintenance over time because there are no joints for weeds to grow in.
