Job Description: Excavate existing driveway, lay MOT type 1 hardcore, concrete in new edgings, lay tarmac base coat and SMA surface course.
This job required significant attention to detail and had to be completed within a strict time frame due to the customer’s requirements.
Existing driveway excavated required depth, waste removed off site, 150mm MOT type 1 limestone laid and compacted with roller, 60mm base coat tarmac and 40mm surface course of SMA tarmac.
Customer supplied natural stone sets from Johnsons Wellfield Quarry which we installed 4 x rows of at front leaving a 10mm gap in between the joints, also a 4m stone lintel was installed at the back of the property.
The tarmac had to be laid on a hot day as the job needed a seamless finish, SMA ( stone mastic asphalt ) needs to stay hot to achieve this on this type of layout.
Finally black epoxy grout was used to point up the gaps in the stone sets.
