Response within 24 hours
From Clapham Common to Clapham Old Town, homeowners want a driveway that copes with daily traffic and looks sharp year-round. Our tarmac solutions suit everything from compact front gardens to wider forecourts near SW4 and SW11. Whether you need a brand-new surface or a clean, cost-effective refresh, we deliver a smooth, even finish. We also handle repairs where cracking or sunken areas have started to show.
Clapham’s Georgian townhouses and Victorian terraces often come with narrow access, shared boundaries and tight turning circles. We design layouts that maximise parking without overwhelming the frontage, and we keep levels right to protect thresholds and basement lightwells. For modern apartments and conversions, we can create durable, low-maintenance parking bays with clear edging. If you’re updating a tired forecourt, tarmac resurfacing can transform kerb appeal quickly.
We start with a site visit to check levels, drainage falls and the condition of the existing base. Where needed, we excavate, install a solid sub-base, compact properly and lay quality tarmac for a long-lasting result. You’ll get clear, written specifications, tidy working practices and a finish that’s ready for everyday use fast. Local homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, clean edges and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
We’re used to the access challenges around Clapham North and Clapham South, including controlled parking zones and limited delivery windows. Our team plans material drop-offs and waste removal to minimise disruption to neighbours and traffic. We also factor in typical London ground build-ups, ensuring strong sub-bases and accurate falls for drainage. For properties in the London Borough of Lambeth/Wandsworth, we can advise on dropped kerbs and liaise around practical requirements.

In the Clapham area, tarmac is typically £40–£70 per square metre, depending on access, excavation depth and edging details. Many homeowners spend around £1,600–£3,500 for a standard front driveway, with larger areas or extensive groundworks costing more. Resurfacing can be more economical if the existing base is sound. We’ll survey, measure and explain options so you can compare like-for-like.
Most new tarmac driveways take 1–2 days, with timing driven by excavation, sub-base installation and the size of the area. If you’re resurfacing, it can often be completed within a day when levels and foundations are suitable. Restricted access near busy roads, waste removal, and any drainage adjustments can add time. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule before work starts and keep you updated throughout.
Many driveway works are permitted development, but rules can change depending on drainage, listed buildings, conservation areas and whether you need a dropped kerb. If you’re creating a new driveway or altering access onto the road, council approval is often required for the kerb crossover. We’ll check the relevant London Borough of Lambeth/Wandsworth requirements and advise on compliant drainage solutions where needed.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our tarmac driveway installations, covering workmanship and the integrity of the laid surface under normal domestic use. This includes issues such as premature cracking caused by installation faults or poor compaction. The warranty doesn’t cover damage from heavy commercial vehicles, oil spills left untreated, or ground movement outside our control. We’ll explain care guidance to help your driveway stay looking its best.
You can choose standard black tarmac, red tarmac for a warmer look, or combine tarmac with decorative edging such as kerbs, brick, or stone setts. We can also create tidy borders around planting beds and pathways, and repair or replace worn sections to match the existing finish. If you need better access, we can advise on dropped kerbs and practical entrance widths. We’ll recommend the best option for your property style and budget.
