Services
Tarmacadam Installation
We provide durable tarmacadam surfaces for roads, driveways, and car parks using a two-layer system with 60mm binder and 40mm wearing courses. Our mechanical pavers ensure even application, while proper compaction extends surface lifespan. This service caters to commercial developments and domestic properties requiring long-lasting, low-maintenance surfacing solutions.
Artificial MUGA Courts
Our multi-use games area (MUGA) installations include excavation, sub-base preparation, porous tarmacadam bases, and synthetic turf installation. We incorporate perimeter fencing and markings for sports, play areas, and fitness tracks. This service meets educational and community needs for all-weather recreational spaces with safety-focused design.
Resin Bound Surfacing
We install resin-bound surfaces combining aggregate and clear resin for decorative, permeable driveways and pool surrounds. This method allows water drainage while maintaining aesthetic appeal. The service includes sub-base preparation and edging installation, ideal for domestic properties seeking SUDS-compliant surfacing solutions.
Car Park Lining
Our car park lining covers bay numbering, disabled spaces, directional arrows, and safety markings using thermoplastic materials. We offer renovation of existing markings and new layouts incorporating pedestrian crossings and hatched areas. This service enhances site safety and regulatory compliance for commercial clients.
Groundwork Projects
We handle excavation, drainage installation, and sub-base preparation for construction projects. Services include type 3 stone sub-bases, kerbing, and compaction to support subsequent surfacing work. This forms the foundation for durable infrastructure across residential and commercial developments in the West Midlands.
