Private Estate Tarmac Road in Lancashire
Roads and driveways are similar in many ways. They will be need to support the weight of vehicles and they should be constructed from durable surfaces that do not require a great deal of maintenance. However, the notion of longevity is even more important when referring to roads that are intended to handle a considerable level of traffic. This is one of the reasons why Stone Made Drives was recently contacted by the owner of a private estate in Lancashire.
Why Choose Tarmac?
As always, we began with a hassle-free consultation to better appreciate how the project would be executed. As the road was quite long, the use of tarmac represented the most logical way forward. Here are some of the many reasons why tarmac is often a viable solution for road surfaces:
- Tarmac is a cost-effective solution.
- It can be applied within a short period of time.
- Tarmac is extremely durable and capable of withstanding a fair amount of physical wear.
- The waterproof nature of this surface helps to prevent drainage problems such as pooling water.
- Its uniform appearance is aesthetically pleasing.
There were nonetheless several preparatory steps which needed to take place before the tarmac was physically applied. These included grading the road, ensuring a flat surface and compacting the ground so that settling would not occur in the future. We employed manual labour alongside innovative machinery such as vibratory compactors to address these concerns. This made quick work out of what might have otherwise become a lengthy project.
A Combination of Convenience and Functionality
Stone Made Drives is always concerned with how long it takes to complete a project. This strategy is even more important when we consider that the residents of the estate needed to access their homes. So, no time was wasted during the application process. The end result was a tarmac road that will provide years of reliable use as well as an increased kerb appeal of the estate itself.
