Tarmacking Services in Willerby
Strong, Reliable Surfaces That Last
If your driveway or outdoor surface is cracked, uneven or worn out, tarmac is a smart and affordable solution. It provides strength, flexibility and a clean modern finish that works for homes, car parks and access roads alike.
At Backhouse Construction & Landscaping, we install and resurface tarmac to deliver smooth, durable results that stand up to daily use and all weather conditions.
Why Tarmac Is a Smart Investment
Tarmac offers great strength at a reasonable cost. It handles heat, cold and heavy use without losing its shape or colour.
It can be installed faster than most surfacing types and looks neat from day one. With minimal maintenance, it keeps your property looking professional and well cared for.

Frequently Asked Questions
How soon can I use my new tarmac driveway?
You can walk on it within 24 hours and drive on it after 48 to 72 hours depending on weather conditions.

Yes. It is generally more affordable to install and repair while offering strong long-term performance.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping rebuilt the driveway shoulder where roots had lifted it. Fresh kerb stones, crisp joint to the path and a smooth top coat tie everything together.
It’s a quiet, confident finish you stop noticing because it behaves.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping installed red tarmac on the path and black on the drive. The contrast looks sharp and helps the kids know where to cycle.
Simple and clever.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping reset the sub base, then rolled a smooth top that hides last winter’s cracks. It feels calm to drive on.

Dan kept the schedule tight so drying windows suited the weather. He marked utilities, set cones early and phoned the neighbour about access.
He also added a tidy upstand along the bed to stop mulch migrating. First shower since and the entrance remained bone dry. It is calm, competent work.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping took up the failed overlay, rebuilt the base at the entrance and installed a new tarmac surface with a crisp stone edge. The manhole sits perfectly flush and the camber guides water to a discreet channel.
We drove on it two days later and it felt solid and smooth.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping refreshed the cul-de-sac spur we share with two neighbours. Deliveries were staggered, the lane stayed open and the roll left a smooth, even sheen without that glassy look.
Edge cuts are tidy, gullies line with the fall and nobody tracks crumbs into their hallway now. It looks modest and behaves perfectly.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping removed a failed overlay, rebuilt the base and laid one clean run. The manhole sits flush, edges are crisp and water heads to a slim channel.
We’re no longer dodging puddles.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping corrected a shallow crown so water no longer drifts to the garage. The camber now reads right.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping overlaid the old patchwork after repairs. Tyres roll quietly and the front looks cared for.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping rebuilt the sub base at our entrance, then laid a uniform tarmac coat that meets the pavement neatly. The manhole is dead flush, edges are tidy and the camber sends water to a quiet slot drain.
They protected the verge with boards, kept the street passable and swept before leaving. It looks simple, which is why it works. Tyres whisper rather than crunch and the front suddenly feels finished.

Dan explained binders and temperature like a teacher. He chose the early slot for laying, rolled patiently and left the site neat.
The new surface has a quiet confidence. We step out and it just works.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping rebuilt the sub base that had failed near our gate, then resurfaced the whole drive in one calm run. Cones kept the street moving, edges were cut clean and the manhole now sits perfectly flush.
A quiet camber guides rain to a slim channel so there’s no puddle by the doors. They protected the verge with boards and swept the kerb each evening. Tyres roll in softly and scooters glide without rattling. The frontage looks cared for rather than patched, which is exactly what we wanted.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping offered black for the main run and red for the footpath. The colour split helps with sightlines and looks smart.
Surface feels resilient underfoot and sweeps clean in minutes.

Dan rebuilt a soft pocket near the gate, set a slim drain and proved the fall with a jug. Threshold stayed dry.
