Block Paving and Tarmac Driveways in Worthing | The Best Material Choice for a New Driveway
If you want to have a new driveway laid, you will need to think about a little more than who you would choose as your preferred driveway contractors. EA Diggers is a name you can trust for block paving, resin and tarmac driveways in the Worthing area. We are also surfacing contractors so, if a driveway is in a particularly poor state of repair, we can offer a surface dressing service to save you money on the cost of resurfacing the entirety of the installation.
Should we need to uplift a driveway for resurfacing, we offer bulk excavation services and convenient solutions in the form of operated digger hire.
Everything you need to have a new driveway laid is available at EA Diggers.
If you still can’t decide which surface to choose, this page might be of help to you. While your final decision might be influenced by your budget, we think it is helpful to know the attributes of the different materials we have to offer, and how their individual qualities can benefit any Worthing property.
Block Paving Driveways
In the combined role of driveway contractors and surfacing contractors, EA Diggers can lay new driveways in block paving to meet the tastes of the most discerning domestic customers. This is a high-end material that comes in a choice of sizes and shades to provide an almost endless number of design permutations. Whereas tarmac driveways will typically be black in colour, pavers are infinitely more attractive in terms of their physical appearance.
To lay block paving in Worthing, we need a suitable sub-base. This will require us to perform a clearance, undertake bulk excavation work and prepare the ground with aggregates and sands to ensure good surface stability.
Block paving, if it becomes damaged, will uplift in individual units. Whereas damaged tarmac driveways will need surface dressing or resurfacing, pavers are replaceable one block at a time, and they can even be used again if a new driveway needs to be taken up to allow for underground utility works.
We have already completed numerous installations in the Worthing area.
Tarmac Driveways
If you choose to have a new driveway laid in tarmac instead of block paving or resin (one of our other options, but one which is much less used), you will be able to stay inside budget but should keep one thing in mind; that tarmac driveways are continuous surfaces and, if they become damaged, it might be necessary to uplift everything and start from scratch. It is possible to use surface dressing for driveway repairs, but only for minor amounts of damage.
Resurfacing will be a much bigger undertaking. Property owners in Worthing should factor in some bulk excavation work along the way. This will never be an issue for EA Diggers because we offer an operated digger hire service.
If your overall spend is important to you, however, our driveway contractors and surfacing contractors will stay inside your budget by recommending tarmac over resin or block paving. The choice will always be your own. Our only objective is to ensure you feel 100% happy with your final decision.
