Tar & Asphalt Surfacing in Tembisa

Asphalt gives a continuous, quiet, quick-to-install surface for large areas — provided the base is engineered and the falls are set before the first load arrives.

We prepare and compact the base layers, prime, then lay and roll asphalt to specified thickness with defined edges and drainage.

Tembisa is one of Gauteng's largest townships, a dense Ekurhuleni settlement of compact stands, growing commercial strips and community facilities where hard-wearing, low-water surfaces matter more than ornamental planting.

For tar & asphalt surfacing specifically, the deciding factor here is usually this: Water costs and dry winters push many properties towards artificial turf or drought-tolerant planting in visible areas.

• Stands are compact and mostly hard-surfaced, so paving layout, falls and a defined stormwater outlet matter more than lawn area.
• High foot traffic on shared and commercial frontages needs paving and floors specified for wear rather than appearance alone.
• Water costs and dry winters push many properties towards artificial turf or drought-tolerant planting in visible areas.
• Small yards benefit from combined solutions — paving, a compact seating area and screening planting resolved in one layout.

Tar & Asphalt Surfacing suits the property types we see most often around Tembisa and the surrounding Gauteng area.

• Compact township stands and backyard rentals
• Local retail and commercial strips
• Schools, clinics and community facilities
• Small workshops and light industrial units
• Estate and complex internal roads
• Commercial parking areas
• Industrial yards and access roads
• Long residential driveways

Preparation decides how long the finish lasts, so it is specified in writing rather than assumed on site: levels, drainage, sub-base or substrate, and edge or perimeter detailing.

• New asphalt surfacing over prepared base layers
• Resurfacing and overlays
• Pothole repair and crack sealing
• Line marking and kerbing

• Fast installation over large areas
• Smooth, continuous, low-noise surface
• Straightforward to resurface later

Programme and price both depend on the site rather than a rate card: access for materials and machinery, the amount of levelling or demolition needed, drainage work, the area covered, and the material specification you choose.

We quote line by line after measuring the site in Tembisa, so you can compare our scope against any other quotation honestly. We do not publish per-square-metre prices, because a quoted rate without a specification tells you nothing.

You receive a written care schedule at handover covering cleaning, seasonal checks and anything that needs attention in the first months. Optional maintenance visits are available where a property needs a consistent standard year-round.

1. 01

   Consultation & site visit

   We walk the site with you, take measurements, note levels, drainage, sun and access, and understand how you want to use the space.

2. 02

   Design & specification

   We produce a layout, material palette and written specification so you can see exactly what is being built before anything is ordered.

3. 03

   Transparent quotation

   A line-item quotation priced against the specification — materials, preparation, labour and timelines, with no hidden allowances.

4. 04

   Site preparation

   Clearing, levelling, excavation, sub-base, drainage and edge restraints. Preparation is where a landscape or floor is won or lost.

5. 05

   Installation & build

   Our own crews install to the agreed specification with staged quality checks and daily site tidy-ups.

6. 06

   Handover & aftercare

   Final walk-through, snag list, and a written care schedule so the finish performs for years, plus optional maintenance visits.
