Re tarmacing drive costs
Discussion
Hi, looking for some advice really as to what i should expect to pay to have my driveway re tarmacked. It currently has an old Tarmac surface which has broken up so would need this removed, a new under layer compacted and then resurfaced along with a drainage grill in front of the garage to connect with an existing drain. Area is a total of 66sq meters, one area 7m x 6m and another 8m x 3m. I've had one quote which nearly made me fall off my chair as the chap who quoted said it would only be 2 days work... Any ideas would be helpful.
I recently had about 70m2 priced up with the following spec in brief
- remove existing asphalt to concrete sub base level
- prep and make good concrete base where required
- edging stones on all edges on mortar base
- lay 2 courses of tarmac
- finish and seal
All in about 5k and about 5 days I think. Note that the grade and thickness will swing costs quite a lot
