Fine Landscaping installs and restores tarmac driveways across Keston (BR2), from family homes near Keston Common to properties close to Keston Ponds. Tarmac is a practical choice for busy households, offering a smooth surface, strong load-bearing and a smart, uniform look. If your existing drive is cracked, sinking or patchy, resurfacing can refresh it without a full rebuild. We can also integrate decorative edging to sharpen the overall appearance.
The Keston area includes period cottages, large detached houses and country homes with wider frontages and longer approaches. We plan levels carefully so rainwater runs where it should, protecting thresholds and garages. For homes with gravelly verges or older entrances, we stabilise the base to prevent rutting and edge creep. If you’re comparing tarmac driveways Keston area options, we’ll recommend the right specification for your parking needs and turning space.
Our process starts with a site visit to measure, assess drainage and confirm access for machinery. We excavate where needed, install a solid sub-base, then lay and compact tarmac for a dense, even finish. Clear communication, clean working practices and reliable scheduling keep disruption low. Local homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, transparent guidance and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Access and parking can be tight around village lanes and greener plots, so we plan deliveries and machinery to minimise disruption. Ground conditions vary from established garden soils to firmer bases on older drive footprints, and we tailor excavation depth accordingly. We also consider drainage and levels carefully to suit Bromley property styles and sloping approaches. If you need guidance on tarmac driveways in London Borough of Bromley requirements, we’ll talk you through the practicalities before work starts.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
In Keston, tarmac driveway pricing typically falls around £40–£70 per square metre, depending on excavation, sub-base depth and edging details. Many homeowners spend roughly £1,600–£3,500 for a standard domestic driveway, but larger detached-house frontages can be higher. Costs also change if you choose red tarmac, add decorative kerbs, or need repairs to a failing base rather than a simple overlay.
Most domestic tarmac driveways are completed in 1–2 days, depending on size, access and how much groundwork is required. A straightforward resurfacing job can be quicker, while full excavation, new sub-base installation and drainage adjustments can extend the programme. Weather also matters, as heavy rain can affect preparation and laying. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule after the site survey and keep you updated throughout.
Many driveway works are permitted development, but rules can apply around drainage, dropped kerbs, and changes to access onto the highway. If the driveway affects surface water run-off, you may need a permeable solution or suitable drainage arrangements. Dropped kerbs are typically subject to council approval and specific construction standards. We’ll advise on what’s likely required for your property and help you check Bromley guidance before starting.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on our tarmac driveway installations, covering workmanship and structural integrity when the driveway is used under normal domestic conditions. This includes issues such as premature cracking linked to poor installation, sub-base failure caused by inadequate preparation, or edge breakdown where we’ve installed the restraints. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, oil spills, or problems caused by third-party alterations or heavy commercial vehicles.
We install standard black tarmac, red tarmac for a warmer look, and can include decorative edging such as block, kerb stones or contrasting borders for definition. For older driveways, we can recommend resurfacing or targeted repairs where only sections have failed. We also advise on dropped kerbs, transitions to paths, and drainage details to keep the finish neat and practical. We’ll help you choose based on your home style and parking needs.
