What Our Car Park Surfacing Services Offer?

We cover all aspects of work, including:

Car Park Construction:

This is the complete construction of a car park and everything it involves, including drainage, line marking and street lighting. You can see everything included below:

• Line and bay markings: Our in-house road marking team uses specialist painting materials to create professional line markings and asphalt signage.
• Drainage design: We are specialist drainage designers and can install or repair all forms of gully drainage systems.
• Set out levels: We’ll make sure your new surface is totally level, avoiding drainage issues and ensuring that your parking area lasts for years to come.
• Final grading: An all-important step before the foundations are laid. Precision grading will result in a flat, level surface.
• Concrete kerbing: Providing the perfect finishing touch, concrete kerbing can elevate the look of your parking area, making the site both safer and more aesthetically pleasing.
• Directional signage: Need to tell your visitors where to go? We can place directional signage on posts or on the surface itself.
• Oil interceptors: We can install these to collect oil residue, preventing it from reaching your car park’s drainage system and causing environmental issues.
• CCTV ducting and posts: Want to monitor the area with CCTV? We can install the necessary provisions for you.
• Street lighting: Our contractors can install a variety of different lighting systems to suit your budget and requirements.
• Speed reduction ramps, including ‘table tops’: A great way of keeping your parking area safe for pedestrians and motorists alike.
• Base and surface courses: Hard-wearing and designed to last, we can lay durable base and surface courses suitable for high-traffic car parks.

Car Park Resurfacing:

This service covers all areas of resurfacing car parks to breathe a new lease of life into them and improve the quality for everyone using them. The service includes:

• Reinstating potholes: We’re available 24 hours a day for emergency pothole repairs, and always aim to complete them within 48 hours of your initial call.
• Resurfacing and repairs: Whatever you need, whenever you need it, there’s no job too big or small for our team.
• Excavate and remove spoils: We’ll leave your site tidy and ready to use, minimising disruption to your employees, visitors and customers.
• Fix grated or dished channels with built-in silt boxes: Prevent silt or soil from entering your drainage system.

Our Car Park Construction Process

• When we receive your email message or phone call, we’ll reply to arrange a mutually convenient time to conduct a site survey. We’re operational 24 hours a day, so no matter which time is best for you and your business, we’ll be able to accommodate you. The site survey is free of charge.
• With the site survey complete and your requirements established, we’ll be able to provide you with a free, no obligation quote and let you know how long it will take to complete the project. If you’re happy to go ahead, we’ll arrange a convenient date for work to begin.
• Before we start laying your surface of choice, we’ll begin preparing the area. Completing thorough prep work allows us to deliver not only a fantastic finish, but one that will stand the test of time.
• Our contractors will begin laying the surface. Taking great care at every stage of the process, we’ll construct a car park you can be proud of – no matter which surface you choose.

What Surface Materials Can We Use for Car Park?

Tarmac: A popular surfacing material for car parks, driveways and roads. Commonly identified by its very distinct black colour, it’s typically made with a combination of tar and crushed stone or aggregate. Learn more about our expert tarmac surfacing.

Resin Bound Surfaces: A very versatile surface material that is both highly durable and stylish. Available in a range of colours, this long-lasting material remains aesthetically pleasing for years. Learn more about our resin bound surfacing.

Asphalt: Equally popular, asphalt is similar in appearance to tarmac but contains less external materials, making it even more durable. Ideal for high-traffic areas or those frequented by heavyweight vehicles, asphalt is a reliable option. Find out more about our asphalt surfacing.

Gravel: The most affordable surface choice of them all, gravel is aesthetically pleasing and is ideally suited to heritage sites. We can offer a variety of styles and colours to complement your building’s appearance. Contact us to find out more.

Our Clients and Past Projects

We have constructed car parks for some of the UK’s largest companies including: Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Matalan, Travis Perkins, and McDonald’s.

Councils: Our specialist knowledge and experience has been trusted by councils across the country, including Peterborough Council and the Corporation of London. For each project we had to take extra special care with health and safety as work was often completed on public ground.

Listed Buildings: From Peterborough Cathedral, to Burghley House, to the Palace of Westminster, we’ve completed surfacing projects next to some of the country’s most treasured historic buildings. Our expertise enabled us to use the commercial machinery without causing any damage to the listed buildings.

Supermarkets: We’re a trusted contractor for a number of top supermarkets in the UK, including Tesco, Sainsbury’s, and Waitrose. We have a strong understanding of layout and design to ensure maximum capacity and a hassle-free shopping experience for customers. We also have a working knowledge of health and safety requirements for completing works on public ground safely.

The Haycock Manor Hotel: We have worked with the prestigious Haycock Manor Hotel to resurface their driveway and roadway, along with adding improved drainage and CCTV. You can learn more about how we helped The Haycock with their parking area.

Shurgard Storage: We’ve completed projects for a number of Shurgard Storage depots in the past, but most recently resurfaced the parking area of a depot in London. The facility remained fully operational while work was completed thanks to the temporary installation of safety barriers, allowing us to get to work without disrupting customers. In just three days, we resurfaced the entire yard and parking area. Find out more about the work we did for Shurgard Storage.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to build a car park?

Car park surfacing costs vary depending on the material you choose, the level of prep work required and the size of the area. Contact us today for a tailored quote.

How long does it take to construct a car park?

This will vary depending on a number of factors, but we have in the past been able to resurface entire car parks in just a day or two. We’ll work around your schedule to minimise disruption to your business and its customers.

What is the best surface for parking?

We would recommend either tarmac or resin bound surfaces, as they’re versatile, durable and comparatively cost-effective to install and maintain.

What is the cheapest material for a car park?

Generally, gravel is the cheapest material you can choose for a car park, although it does require more ongoing maintenance than most other surfaces.

Will I need a drainage system in my car park?

This depends on the material you choose. For example, resin bound or open-graded tarmac surfaces are porous, eliminating problems with standing water.
