You could try Hillsborough Surfacing (they are in Yellow Pages). I have seen their work and it's really good, including the all important sub-base and the preparation work. :thumbsup: Camrat78 11-10-2006, 06:01 Misterm, as someone who works in the asphalt industry, make sure you get to see other examples of there work. Feel free to pm me if you want to know what materials they should use and what depths they should be layed at. You could have a look at the QPA website, they also have advise about how drives should be constructed. misterm 11-10-2006, 11:31 Thanks so far, forgot to mention - i'm in Worksop so any local to the east side of Sheffield never wrong 11-10-2006, 11:38 I have heard that the local gypos to a great service but the downside of this they are a little expensive boosh 12-10-2006, 08:25 I have heard that the local gypos to a great service but the downside of this they are a little expensive What a load of crap!!!!!service none existant! and prices are stupid THATS MY RANT FOR THE DAY boosh 12-10-2006, 08:28 Good company is saxby surfacing at ecclesfield, speak to ian saxby 07860 644038.....very good...works anywhere...prices reasonable but not cheap.
