Could anyone give me a rough idea of the cost to resurface a car park please? It measures approx 40m x 55m in the main parking area, and then there are two entry and exit sections, each of which is about 10m wide and 40m long.

Total surface area is therefore about 3000 square metres.

Cheers

Bonded resin around £50K - it will look good though

Tarmac presumably, whatever they normally use for public car parks.

It really is a difficult question as it would depend on the drainage, kerbs, access restraints etc etc.

However, for a ballpark figure it would cost £30k or so in Tarmac alone. Very, Very rough figures - somewhere in the region £60-70k for the complete job I would say.

Based on South Wales prices smile

Probably depends also on who does it for you.

£35k - very rough figure, it'll depend on a few factors but that's based on a normal asphalt surface course.

Car parks are usually quoted 'per space' rather than in simple area terms. This then covers the 'usual' items of taking into account drains, white lining etc.

Depending on the level of prep required, I'd estimate £1,000-1,500 per space.

Be around 45K plus prep.

For a 40mm overlay.

So if you only wanted one space marked that's a bargain.

We had a car park resurfaced for £30k. It was in 2 sections (each 40m x 40m). This was East Manchester prices about 4 years ago. IIRC they removed the original tarmac, levelled the subsurface, re-tarmacced and then marked out about 80 spaces.
