We perform a complete surface dressing and road maintenance service, restoring roadways and reducing the risk of further damages. We can provide surface dressing for commercial and domestic projects, and will endeavour to always meet your needs, schedule and budget.

Surface dressing as a technique involves the application of a layer of bitumen emulsion to the road surface, followed by a layer of aggregate chips. The bitumen acts as a binding agent, holding the chips in place and forming a waterproof seal over the surface of the road. The aggregate chips provide a textured surface that improves skid resistance and protects the underlying pavement from damage caused by traffic and weathering.
