Today we completed an asphalt road repair at Complete Metal Industries. As seen in the pictures, a pothole had formed on the road in front of the driveway which was a hazard for vehicles and unsightly. The best course of action was to do a cut & replace patch.
Cut and replace asphalt repairs are completed by cutting and removing the damaged asphalt, usually to a neat square or rectangular shape, trimming or preparing the existing underlying road base to the required depth (e.g. 30mm), applying an adhesive bitumen spray to the patch, and then filling the patch with new asphalt flush with the existing. If an additional seal is required on the join between the old and new asphalt, a bitumen sealer tape can be applied.
Thanks to our technician Jordan for a job well done and a thank you to Complete Metal Industries for engaging us to complete the work.
