Asphalt & Tarmacadam & Driveways Resin bound Driveway

Asphalt is a popular surface for roads because it is a cheap solution for surfacing large areas.  However, it can work out as an expensive option for smaller surfaces. Despite sometimes being referred to as asphalt tarmac the two things are not the same.  The difference between tarmac and asphalt is that asphalt is extremely hard wearing, however the main drawback is that it is not as resistant to the constant scuffing by car tires.  

This is also a major difference to consider when looking at the difference between bitmac and asphalt surfacing. Asphalt is much more resistant to extreme weather conditions and needs a lot less maintenance, and this is a key factor when deciding between tarmac and asphalt.

Another reason to choose asphalt vs tarmac is that asphalts are kinder to the environment.  Asphalt can be reclaimed when the surface gets old and can then be reused fairly easily elsewhere.    When looking at driveway surfaces it is always worth remembering that while it may be called an asphalt driveway it may actually be asphalt concrete.  This is another completely different type of surface.

Asphalt concrete is a mixture of asphaltic cement combined with sand or grit which provides a really hard wearing and long lasting surface.  These surfaces are much more expensive and are a lot harder to repair than tarmac or asphalt. Asphalt concrete is also more easily damaged by fluctuating temperatures. Asphalt driveway Company Surrey Tarmac Adam Driveway Company Windsor local asphalt companies

Tarmac is still one of the most popular finishes for driveways today due to its longevity, flexibility and cost savings.

Whilst tarmac driveways are one of the most economical driveway surfacing solutions, it can still be a very attractive option, especially with the extensive array of decorative edgings and features available. Additionally, savings can be achieved due to the fact that most existing tarmacadam and concrete driveways can be overlaid with a new wearing course, which means less disruption when replacing an existing tarmac Asphalt driveway Resin bound Driveway driveway sealing driveway Asphalt driveway Company Surrey
