A well-laid tarmac driveway makes daily parking easier and instantly improves kerb appeal. We install and resurface driveways across CR4, with regular projects near Mitcham Junction station and around Figges Marsh. Whether you need a fresh new surface or targeted repairs, we focus on clean lines, proper drainage and a finish that stays looking sharp. Options include red tarmac and decorative edging to suit your frontage.
Mitcham’s mix of Victorian cottages, 1930s semis and modern estates means no two driveways are the same. We’re used to narrower front gardens, shared access points and varied levels—especially around Pollards Hill and the Mitcham Common side streets. Our team measures carefully, plans practical turning space, and designs entrances that work with your gates, bins and footpaths. The result is a driveway that fits your property rather than fighting it.
We start with a site visit, clear advice on build-up depth, and a written quotation. Groundworks are handled properly: excavation, sub-base, compaction and a smooth tarmac finish, with edging installed for strength and definition. We keep disruption low, leave the site tidy, and explain aftercare so the surface cures well. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, transparent pricing and a 10-year warranty.
As a local team working in the London Borough of Merton, we plan around tight access, school-run traffic and limited on-street parking. Some CR4 roads need careful spoil removal and considerate delivery timing, so we schedule plant and materials to minimise disruption. We also allow for varied ground conditions near Mitcham Common and older garden plots, using the right sub-base depth and compaction. That’s why homeowners trust our tarmac driveways Mitcham area for long-term performance.

In Mitcham, tarmac is typically £40–£70 per square metre, depending on access, excavation depth and edging details. Many homeowners pay around £1,600–£3,500 for an average-sized front drive, but larger areas or poor ground can increase costs. Extras such as red tarmac, decorative kerbs, drainage adjustments or repairs to a weak sub-base will also affect the final figure.
Most installations take 1–2 days, with time split between ground preparation and laying the tarmac. Smaller resurfacing jobs can sometimes be completed in a day, while deeper excavations, complex edging or restricted access may extend the programme. Weather also matters, as heavy rain can slow groundworks and laying. We’ll confirm timings after a site survey and keep you updated throughout.
Many driveway works are permitted development, but rules can apply to drainage, levels and changes to vehicle access. If you’re creating a new entrance or altering the pavement, a dropped kerb usually requires council approval and an authorised contractor. We’ll advise on what’s likely needed for your property and help you plan the job to meet local requirements, including suitable drainage solutions where necessary.
