Car Park Surfacing Tickhill

After installation, as a precautionary measure, you shouldn’t drive on your newly surfaced tarmac for the first 2-5 hours. During this time, the tarmac will still be at its softest and any heavy traffic could cause indentations and damage to the tarmac.

Car park surfaces can be constructed on a number of materials depending on factors such as cost, durability, local regulations and drainage factors.

Choices include tarmacadam, concrete and shingle. We recommend tarmacadam car parks for most urban parking areas, as they provide the best combination of factors, plus allow easy line marking for parking bays.

Tarmacadam is often referred to by its brand name of ‘Tarmac’ and is very common on UK roads. The binder in Tarmacadam is tar, whereas asphalt uses a bitumen binder. Both terms are often used interchangeably.

Your car park is the first opportunity to create a positive first impression for any potential customers. In today’s world, they expect to be provided with adequate parking facilities. If you already own a car park, its important to maintain it to the highest possible standards.

Unlike block paved or concrete driveways, tarmac can be laid directly onto any existing surface, whereas the other materials require a full depth bedding layer before work can even begin.

Car park surfacing is a service which enables you to transform the unused space surrounding your business into facilities where potential customers can park their vehicles. Car park surfacing will commonly consist of quality surfacing material which is accompanied by thermoplastic markings which helps to clearly display parking spaces and control the flow of traffic.
