How much does a tarmac driveway cost in South Hampstead?

Tarmac driveway prices in South Hampstead (NW6) typically sit between £1,800 — £12,000 depending on surface area, excavation depth required and whether the existing drive needs removing first.

A free itemised quotation from a local tarmac driveway contractor is the quickest way to a realistic figure for your property.

How long does a tarmac driveway take to lay in South Hampstead?

Most residential tarmac driveways in South Hampstead are completed inside two to four working days from excavation through to the finished roll. Weather is the main variable — hot tarmac needs dry conditions to go down well. Your tarmac driveway contractor will schedule around settled weather windows and confirm an installation date at quote stage.

Do I need planning permission for a new tarmac drive in South Hampstead?

Within South Hampstead (NW6), planning permission for tarmac is generally unnecessary provided you include drainage to a permeable area, soakaway or ACO channel. Impermeable surfacing over five square metres at the front of a property without drainage does need permission. A qualified tarmac driveway contractor will design the falls and drainage so the job sits inside permitted development.
