THAT LAST.
The Surfaces We Lay:
Wearing course/top layer The final surface depends on the traffic flow so for light traffic (pedestrians ) we put down a 6mm lime stone and we use a 10mm or 14mm hardstone road repairs, driveways, industrial estates, foot paths, cycle tracks, highway maintenance, pothole car parks, forecourts and private areas.
Base/Binder Course Tarmacadam:
This is a 20mm or up to a 30mm aggregate based tarmacadam which is strong and used as a road base and can be put in different thicknesses / layers to built a sound base to your road or drive and then rolled into position.
Open Grade Tarmacadam:
This is a surfacing material that can be put down over a hardcore base or an open grade base tarmacadam to allow a good percentage of the stormwater to run through the surface. This surfacing has been developed to comply with SUDS regulations and is used in conjunction with our resin bound porous paving to create a complete porous system. This material is still rolled smooth but leaves a open texture finish so the finished surface is never compromised.
S.M.A. (Stone mastic Asphalt):
SMA is a refined tarmacadam mix which has fibres added to the mix to enhance its wearing and durability (more expensive but it can be worth it). Each individual layer whether it is hardcore or tarmacadam is compacted / rolled into place to suit and the edges sealed with a jointing sealant to finish.
The application is rapid with up to 200 square metres being applied in a day. The resin bound is laid at 12mm-15mm for light traffic, for example, pedestrians and between 18mm-24mm for other vehicles. Curing times will depend on the temperature, however, you can usually walk on the finished surface within 4 hours, overnight is generally advised by the installation team.
Car parks, heritage sites, swimming pool surrounds, driveways, footpaths, gardens, barbecue areas, patios and balconies. The aesthetically pleasing finish can be used for domestic, industrial and commercial use with a wide range of aggregates and colours. There are local granites, quartz, flints and recycled glass to choose from.
If your driveway is starting to look a bit worn out and dated, don’t take it up, just let us overlay your existing driveway with this product if the substrate is sound. If you’re looking for a porous suds regulated parking pad in your garden, don’t despair with planning permission as this surfacing is Suds compliant due to the make-up of the structure being 803 mot compacted stone, open texture tarmac and a wearing/surface course of resin bound. It can also be laid over tarmac / asphalt and concrete.
This resin system is a modern and versatile alternative to conventional paving. So if your slabs or bricks in your back garden or driveway are looking old and dated, save the hassle of removing them, let us over lay them and revive a barbecue area into a weed free, decorative and contempory eating area.
The resin bound porous system is assessed as non –hazardous to health or the environment. The long service life and seamless surface reduces the need for repairs, maintenance and cleaning, we can provide a 5 year guarantee on this product
