Pothole Repairs

REPAIRS THAT LAST

Potholes range from surface cracking and shallow patches to deep holes and ruts that can damage vehicles and create hazards for pedestrians. Left untreated, they deteriorate, as water enters the surface and weakens the layers beneath.

Our repairs are carried out to a consistent standard, whether the job is one defect or an entire site. A properly executed repair restores a safe, even surface, extends the working life of your car park, playground, yard or forecourt, and can postpone the cost of full resurfacing.

Our typical pothole repair follows four stages:

  1. The defect is cleared of loose material and any damaged tarmac.
  2. A bitumen tack coat is applied to the inside of the cavity.
  3. A hard-wearing tarmacadam mix is laid and compacted level with the surrounding surface.
  4. The edges of the repair are sealed with bitumen to keep water out.

We use a repair screed on suitable jobs for a durable, fast-opening finish. For whole areas that are failing, we will tell you honestly when resurfacing is better value than patching.

SCREED REPAIRS FOR BUSY SITES

Where closing an area for long isn’t an option, our repair screed keeps disruption to a minimum. It is a flowable material made from resin, aggregate and polymers, and it typically sets in around 10 minutes. Because the surface doesn’t need to be cut or broken out first, repairs are quicker to complete and the area is back in use sooner.

Once set, the repair is a tough, load-bearing patch that resists impact and keeps water out. It bonds to the existing surface to prevent the damage spreading, and it is available in black or grey so that it blends in.

It is suited to defects such as:

  • Shallow potholes
  • Lane joints
  • Ravelled areas
  • Patches ahead of surface dressing

We use it on both tarmac and concrete, including:

  • Public and private roads
  • Highways and transport routes
  • Car parks and commercial premises
  • Industrial and warehouse hardstanding
  • Retail parks and business estates
  • Airfield pavements

Screed isn’t right for every job. Where a defect is deep or widespread, or the base itself has failed, a conventional repair or resurfacing may be the better investment. We will survey the site and recommend the best option, even where that isn’t the screed.

The benefits of pothole repair screed

WHY CHOOSE SCREED

THE BENEFITS OF SCREED REPAIR

  • Lower cost than patching: Less labour and material than a conventional tarmac repair, which can mean a lower overall cost.
  • Rapid setting: Typically ready for traffic in around 10 minutes, which reduces closures and downtime.
  • Minimal preparation: No cutting or breaking out, so the repair process is simpler and quicker.
  • Built for heavy use: A hard-wearing, impact-resistant patch that copes with continuous traffic.
  • Safer surface: A high-friction finish that helps to maintain grip, and a smooth repair that removes trip hazards and vehicle damage risks.
  • Seals out water: The repair resists water ingress, helping to stop the same area deteriorating again.
  • Blends in: Available in black and grey to match the surrounding surface.
  • A lower-carbon option: Compared with conventional repair materials.

What is pothole patching?

Patching is the process of filling a pothole or excavated area in a surface. Repairing defects promptly limits further deterioration and can avoid more costly resurfacing later.

Why should potholes be repaired?

Water is the main cause of potholes. Each existing defect allows more water into the layers below the surface, which weakens the structure and leads to larger potholes. Early repair prevents this damage from spreading.

How do potholes form?

Rainwater enters small cracks and gaps in the surface. When temperatures fall below freezing, the water expands as it turns to ice and widens the damage. Repeated freezing and thawing, combined with the weight of traffic, eventually breaks the surface apart and creates a pothole.

Who do you provide pothole repairs for?

We provide pothole repair services across the UK, with each project planned around safety, efficiency and durability. Our clients include businesses, local authorities and private landowners. These include:

  • Public and private roads
  • Car parks
  • Farm roads
  • Retail parks
  • Industrial estates

What is pothole repair screed?

It is a flowable, high-performance repair material made from resin, aggregate and polymers. It is applied to potholes, cracks and surface defects and sets into a hard-wearing, impact-resistant patch that bonds to asphalt and concrete.

How long does pothole screed take to set?

Typically around 10 minutes after application, which keeps downtime to a minimum. We will confirm the timing for your site when we agree the programme.

How does screed compare to traditional repairs?

Conventional patching normally means cutting out or breaking up the damaged area before filling it. Screed doesn’t need this, so it is quicker to apply, often lower in cost and leaves a high-friction finish.

Can screed be used on all surfaces?

It works on both tarmac (asphalt) and concrete, including roads, car parks, industrial hardstanding and airfield pavements. We will confirm it is suitable for your surface and the type of defect during the survey.

Does screed improve safety?

Yes. A properly applied repair removes trip hazards and uneven areas, and the high-friction finish helps to maintain grip. It also helps to stop the defect from deteriorating further.

Can screed be applied in bad weather?

We can work in a range of conditions, but weather affects how any repair performs. We will advise on timing for your project and agree it with you in advance.
