If your driveway is cracked, patchy or holding puddles, tarmac is a smart, tidy upgrade for BR4 homes.

West Wickham’s mix of 1930s semis, detached houses and newer developments often comes with sloped drives, short front gardens and shared crossovers. We design levels and falls to suit these plots, keeping water run-off controlled and entrances practical. For homeowners in Hayes, Keston and Shirley, we match the driveway layout to parking needs without wasting space. The result is a surface that looks smart and works hard every day.
We start with a site visit to measure, check drainage and confirm the best build-up for your sub-base. Our team prepares the ground properly, lays tarmac to the right thickness, and finishes edges cleanly for a crisp line against walls and borders. You’ll get clear, written scope and aftercare guidance, plus workmanship you can rely on. Local homeowners trust us because we keep sites tidy and deliver on agreed timescales.
Drive access in West Wickham can be tight, with on-street parking near Sparrows Den and busier routes off the High Street. We plan deliveries, waste removal and safe pedestrian access to keep disruption low. Ground conditions vary between older plots and newer builds, so we adjust excavation depth and sub-base to suit. For tarmac driveways West Wickham area, we also advise on drainage and crossover details to align with local expectations.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
For tarmac driveways in West Wickham, typical pricing is £40–£70 per square metre depending on excavation needs, sub-base condition, edging and drainage. Many homeowners spend around £1,600–£3,500 for an average-sized driveway, with repairs or resurfacing often costing less than a full dig-out. Red tarmac and decorative borders can increase the budget slightly. We’ll survey and provide a tailored estimate.
Most jobs take 1–2 days, especially straightforward replacements or resurfacing. Timescales can extend if there’s significant excavation, poor existing sub-base, complex drainage, or if a dropped kerb is being coordinated. Weather also matters, as heavy rain can delay laying and compaction. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule after the site visit and keep you updated as the work progresses.
In many cases, driveway works are permitted development, but rules can apply around drainage (especially where water would run onto the highway) and alterations such as dropped kerbs. If your design needs new drainage channels or changes to the crossover, approvals may be required. We flag any likely constraints during the survey and can advise on compliant options for tarmac driveways in London Borough of Bromley.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our tarmac driveway installations, covering workmanship and issues such as sinking caused by inadequate preparation, edge failure, or premature cracking linked to installation. Normal wear, misuse, and damage from heavy commercial vehicles are not covered. We also give aftercare guidance to help the surface bed in properly and stay looking smart for years.
You can choose standard black tarmac, red tarmac for a warmer look, and a range of decorative edging such as block paving or kerb stones to frame the driveway. We can also incorporate drainage channels, recessed covers and neat transitions to paths. For homes with limited space, we’ll help refine the layout to maximise parking while keeping turning and access practical.
