Homes around Brixton range from Victorian terraces and Georgian houses to newer developments with tight front gardens. That mix often means awkward access, varied levels and existing brick or stone boundary details to work around. Our tarmac driveways Brixton area service is tailored to these constraints, with careful excavation, drainage consideration and neat transitions to paths and thresholds. We can also integrate dropped kerbs and edging so the frontage looks intentional, not patched together.

You’ll get a clear specification, tidy working practices and a finish designed to drain correctly and resist rutting. Fine Landscaping is based just 20 minutes away, so aftercare and follow-up are straightforward. Local homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, skilled laying and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Working across the London Borough of Lambeth means dealing with narrow roads, controlled parking and limited storage space for materials. We schedule deliveries and removal to suit local restrictions and keep access clear for neighbours. Many Brixton frontages sit on mixed ground and older sub-bases, so we prioritise proper excavation and compaction to prevent sinking. If your property is a terrace with a short run to the road, we also focus on tidy thresholds and drainage falls.

For most projects, tarmac is typically £40–£70 per square metre, depending on access, thickness, edging and groundwork. In Brixton, a typical driveway often falls around £1,600–£3,500, but larger areas or sites needing excavation, drainage improvements, or a new sub-base can increase costs. We’ll survey your frontage and provide a detailed, itemised estimate rather than a one-size figure.
Most tarmac driveway jobs in Brixton take 1–2 days, depending on size and whether we’re resurfacing or building from scratch. Resurfacing can be quicker if the existing base is sound, while new installations take longer due to excavation, sub-base installation and compaction. Weather, access for machinery, and curing time can also affect scheduling. We’ll confirm timings after the site assessment.
Many driveway works are permitted development, but rules can apply around drainage, access changes and dropped kerbs. If you’re creating a new hardstanding, you may need to ensure surface water drains to a permeable area or suitable drainage system rather than the highway. Dropped kerbs typically require council approval. We’ll advise on the likely requirements and can help you plan the job to stay compliant.
Yes. Our tarmac driveway installations come with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship-related issues such as premature cracking, sinking or edge failure caused by incorrect installation. It doesn’t cover damage from heavy commercial vehicles, ground movement outside our control, or neglect such as chemical spills left to degrade the surface. We also provide aftercare guidance to help your driveway keep its finish for longer.
You can choose standard black tarmac for a clean, modern look, or red tarmac for added character—popular on period homes. We also offer decorative edging (block, kerb or stone) to sharpen the outline and protect edges, plus repairs and resurfacing where the base is still strong. If you need a dropped kerb, we’ll factor access and levels into the design. We’ll recommend options based on your frontage, parking needs and budget.
