Hi folks - I have a 200sqM tarmac mixed parking and driveway. I am thinking of funding a new bitmac wear course. Roughly what ballpark cost/sqM can I expect? for the whole thing?
And also what cost sq/M would be if I decide to only repair the the 100 sqM that is visible from the road.
Thanks in advance - description below.
The sub-structure is basically sound - there are no ruts or depressions - heavy vehicles do not deform it.
The top surface is very rough and crumbly and some of the joints between the batches layed are now clearly visible with stripes of grass growing through them in a few places.
There is some surface moss etc - but I keep on top of this with moss-clear type sprays once/twice a year or so.
There are no gullies or surface drainage - the whole thing slopes to the roadway - with falls to suit- but it is porous so there is little run-off.
There are 5 old inspection covers that would need replacing - the pits however are sound.
