“I recently had my driveway and front garden replaced with a new entrance and space for the car. Tony and the team at Test Valley Driveways were great; Good communication and they ensured that the area was clean and tidy at the end of each day. They removed the front gate and wall, opening up access in the process, and replaced the path all the way up to the front door. It looks so much better now! They also took on the path down the side of the building. I can now park my car off the road with space left over for visitors. I would highly recommend Test Valley Driveways.”

Tarmac driveways in Milford On Sea: Homeowners vs renters

For homeowners

You’re responsible for maintaining your driveway. Planning permission usually isn’t needed, unless the driveway directs rainwater onto the road. Surfaces should be permeable or have proper drainage. Always check with your local council if you’re unsure.

For renters

Landlords are generally responsible for major driveway repairs. If it’s unsafe (potholes, uneven surfaces), report it to your landlord or managing agent. Cosmetic upgrades like coloured tarmac usually need landlord approval.

Yes, if the existing base is solid and level. If the old surface is cracked or sinking, it’s usually better to start from scratch for a longer-lasting result.

A well-laid tarmac driveway typically lasts 15 - 20 years. Regular maintenance, good drainage, and sealing cracks early will extend its lifespan.

Wait at least 3 - 5 days before driving or parking on new tarmac, and up to a week if possible. This gives the surface time to harden properly.

Usually not. The main exception is if your drive channels rainwater onto the road. To avoid issues, your driveway should be permeable, drain to a lawn or drain to a soakaway.

Costs vary depending on local labour rates, but expect similar ranges to the UK average: £50 - £70 per m².

Get multiple quotes from checked tradespeople in Milford On Sea to compare fairly.

Tarmac is often one of the most affordable options. It’s usually cheaper than block paving and resin, while still offering durability and a clean finish.

Yes, a well-laid tarmac driveway can improve kerb appeal and make your home more attractive to buyers. While it might not add thousands to your house price directly, it gives a strong first impression and can help your property sell quicker.

Yes, proper drainage is important. Without it, water can pool and damage the surface. Most driveway specialists will include drainage solutions in their quote, such as a soakaway or directing water onto a lawn.

In the UK, “tarmac” is the more common term, but asphalt is a very similar material. Asphalt usually has a slightly smoother finish and can sometimes be more durable. For most homes, both options work well.
