Road Resurfacing

Blacktop has many years of experience as road makers in Ireland. We have completed work on national, non-national and urban road resurfacing and pavement contracts.Tarmacadam surfacing for roads, driveways and carparks is being phased out and replaced with Stone Mastic Asphalt. SMA is used in the construction of new roads and overlaying existing roads and offers superior durability and resistance to deformation. SMA must be designed and manufactured in accordance with the TII Specification for Road Works when used on national roads. All coarse aggregates must have a PSV value of 60 or greater when skid resistance is required.

Car Parks

Car park resurfacing needs to be a fast, smooth operation at all times but never at the expense of quality or the risk of repetitive reactive maintenance.We have extensive experience in constructing car parks and undertake both public and private projects.
