Shared driveways, entrances and local patches
On a shared road, a defect by the entrance may affect several properties. Include the full approach in your photographs and identify who is arranging the work. We discuss parking, bins, deliveries and any access that must remain open while the repair is carried out.
For Fife homes and private lanes, we look at the edges of the failed area, changes in level and signs of water collecting. Patching, a larger replacement section or further investigation of the base may be recommended depending on what the assessment finds.
Reinstatement after service work and business-site repairs
Our Fife project gallery includes reinstatement and patching in progress. When enquiring about a utility trench, tell us what has been excavated, who is responsible for the backfill and which surface layers are required. This helps avoid gaps between the groundwork and surfacing scopes.
At car parks, industrial units, leisure facilities and retail premises, send a plan of the damaged areas alongside vehicle and pedestrian routes. We can assess the repair package and discuss phasing around the agreed operating requirements.
Patching, resurfacing or rebuilding?
- Local pothole or failed patch: remove loose or failed material to suitable boundaries, assess the base, then prepare, lay and compact the specified asphalt.
- Widespread worn surfacing: assess whether road planing and a larger resurfaced section are appropriate.
- Sinking, repeated damage or standing water: investigate the base, levels and drainage before covering the area. Additional preparation may be needed.
The repair depth, material, bonding treatment and joint finish are specified for the site. A new patch may differ in colour from the weathered surface around it. See our full tarmac repair and reinstatement service for the work we undertake.

Your repair questions
Can you assess a shared driveway in Dunfermline?
Yes. Include the postcode, photographs, approximate dimensions and details of who manages the shared surface. We agree the scope and access arrangements with the responsible client.
Do you reinstate tarmac after cable or pipe work?
We welcome reinstatement enquiries after utility excavation. Send the required construction, trench dimensions and backfill details so that responsibilities and the surfacing scope can be agreed.
Can a small patch match the colour of an older driveway?
New asphalt usually looks different from weathered surfacing, so an exact colour match is not promised. We explain the proposed repair boundaries and finish before you decide.
