What We Do

The three road-work scopes we deliver most often.

Estate & Residential Access Roads

Internal estate roads, driveways for large properties, and private access roads — designed layerworks, engineered drainage, and asphalt, block paving, or chip-and-spray surfacing to suit the traffic.

Civil & Industrial Roads

Heavy-duty roads for industrial sites, warehouses, and civil infrastructure — thicker layerworks, stronger subgrade preparation, and surfacing rated for truck and plant traffic.

Paving & Kerbs

Block paving (permeable and impermeable), concrete kerbs, channels, and hardstanding. Engineered sub-base, edge restraint, and laying to pattern — paving that stays flat and doesn’t settle.

How It Works

Design review or design-assist. We work to your civil engineer’s drawings. Where you don’t have a design, we help source one or work under a design-and-build arrangement with a consulting engineer.
Subgrade preparation. Subgrade stripped, levelled, and proof-rolled. Soft spots identified and treated. Level and CBR confirmed before layerworks start.
Layerworks. Subbase and base courses placed to SANS 1200 ME, each layer compacted to specified density, tested, and signed off before the next layer. No shortcuts — layerworks is where road longevity lives.
Surfacing. Asphalt, chip-and-spray, or block paving to the design. Correct temperatures, correct joints, correct compaction, and accurate kerbs and drainage channels.
Handover. As-built survey, density and thickness test results, engineer sign-off, and the written workmanship guarantee. Maintenance guidance provided.

Common Questions

How thick should an estate road base be?

It depends on subgrade CBR, traffic loading, and surfacing type. A typical residential estate road runs 150mm subbase + 150mm base under asphalt, but the engineer’s design is the authority. We build to the design, with test results to prove it.

Asphalt or block paving for an estate road?

Asphalt is cheaper for longer lengths and handles thermal cycling well. Block paving looks better, repairs are easier (lift and relay), and permeable pavers can help with SUDS requirements. Both are viable — the right answer depends on the estate’s aesthetic and drainage strategy.

Do you do chip-and-spray?

Yes — chip-and-spray is a cost-effective surfacing for lower-traffic roads and can be maintained or re-sealed periodically. We handle the full layerworks and sealing.

Can you install permeable paving?

Yes — permeable block paving with engineered sub-base for infiltration, useful where SUDS (sustainable urban drainage) is required to reduce stormwater runoff. We build to the engineer’s permeability spec.
