Tarmac Driveways in Worsley and the surrounding area
For value across a large area, tarmac takes some beating on a Worsley driveway. It costs less per square metre than a fully paved finish, it is laid and rolled quickly, and it is hard-wearing enough to take cars in and out every day for years. It handles our weather well too, shedding rain rather than absorbing it, with no joints to open up and very little upkeep to worry about.
We excavate the driveway, then lay and compact the sub-base before laying the tarmac and rolling it to a smooth, even finish. The falls are set so water runs to the road rather than towards the house, and the edges are finished in block or kerb, which holds the tarmac in place so it does not fret at the perimeter. A block paved border is worth thinking about for that reason as much as for the look of it, since it lifts a plain tarmac drive and locks the edge at the same time.
What’s included
- Excavation and a compacted sub-base
- Tarmac laid and rolled to a smooth finish
- Falls set so water runs away from the house
- Block or kerb edging to stop the edges breaking up
- A clean, even black finish

- 02

Edge and finish

Why us
Why choose THB Contractors
We have built up over 20 years of driveway and surfacing work across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, and plenty of it in Worsley. You are letting someone dig up the front of your property, or take a car park out of use for a few days, so it is worth knowing how we work before you agree to anything. We look at the job before we price it, we build the base for the ground we actually find, and you keep the same team from the first visit to the last sweep-up.
Worsley falls inside the area we cover from our Bolton base, which runs across Greater Manchester and out into Lancashire and Cheshire. The M28 postcodes are somewhere we are working regularly, and Atherton, Ainsworth, Westhoughton, Speke and Hunt's Cross are covered on the same basis.
Over 20 years’ experience
We have spent over twenty years laying driveways, patios and commercial surfaces across the North West, and our reputation rests on quality workmanship and tidy, reliable jobs.
A written, itemised quote
Once we have seen the job we put the price in writing, so there is nothing to catch you out after the work starts.
The base done properly
Most surfaces fail from underneath. We build the base to suit the ground we find rather than digging every job out the same way.
The same people throughout
You have the same team from the quote through to the day the job is finished.
Domestic and commercial
We take the same careful approach to a single driveway as we do to a full car park, right through pricing and planning.
The price
What affects the price
We come out to every Worsley job and price it from what we find, and the visit costs you nothing. That is better than guessing at a figure from a description.
The main things that move the figure:
- The area and the depth of excavation needed
- The edging chosen and any kerbing
- Access for the paver, wagons and roller
- Falls, and any new edgings
