Tarmac

TARMACADAM (commonly known as Tarmac ).

The most versatile of surfacing materials is produced locally, laid and rolled whilst hot to give a lasting, durable and economical surface.

South Molton Tar Pavers will decide if the surface can either be laid by hand or laid with heavy machinery depending on the size of the area to be covered and usually comprises of a base course and wearing course macadam. The wearing course can also be coloured or even have decorative stone rolled in to it, to give an individual bespoke look.

HARDCORE

The hardcore sub-base is usually crushed stone but increasingly South Molton Tar Pavers are using more environmentally recycled materials such as tarmac planings and crushed concrete all graded to specific sizes and content. This material is levelled and well compacted to 'HAUC' specifications using the latest operator friendly vibrating rollers.

DRAINAGE

Depending on the layout of the area, a drainage system is now incorporated using either plastic or clay materials in all underground situations connecting to the existing system or to a new soak-away using a variety of collecting vessels. Once the drainage systems are in place they are then flushed through with clean water and then tested before covering.

New manhole covers and gully gratings can sometimes be blended in well to disguise it with the surrounding surfaces.
