With the percentage of car ownership in the UK rapidly increasing by the day, car parking space is at a premium, more and more of us are converting front gardens into much needed front driveways as a place to leave their cars overnight instead of battling for a place on the kerb.
Tarmac is one popular way of creating a drive in Britain. The effect is achieved by spreading tarmac, the same material used for road construction which is made from a mix of tar and broken stones across a pre prepared base of hardcore and subgrade. The mixture is spread evenly and into shape if required to a sufficient depth for the weight the area will need to bear. The mixture can be bordered by many different materials to bring a different aesthetic of the area.
As with all landscaping and civil engineering projects, work must always be carried out by an experienced professional, in a project like this bases and mixtures must be laid to specific depths and consistencies to guarantee the longevity of the driveway and avoid cracking down the line.
It is also important, especially when talking about driveways to avoid rogue traders and cowboy builders, shoddy workmanship or cost cutting by the tradesmen in this area is not always easy to detect in the first instance but you will certainly tell the difference over time.
