Tarmac in Swords: fast and practical

Plenty of Swords households run two cars and need a drive that takes daily wear without fuss. Tarmac is hard to beat for that, and a red or black finish with granite-effect kerbs gives a tidy edge against the footpath.

Many of the older estates were built on heavy clay, which holds water. If a tarmac drive is going to stay level, the sub-base has to be dug to the right depth and compacted in layers. We do not skip that step to save a morning, because it decides how long the surface lasts.
