Resealing

The surface on a road is like paint on your house – it keeps water out of the structure underneath. Like paint, the seal breaks down over time and starts to let water in.

The ideal time to reseal is just before any deterioration occurs, so your road may still look to be in good condition before we complete a resurface.

 

Resurfacing your street

Before we resurface a road, we undertake prior works to ensure the road is in reasonable condition. These pre-reseal repairs happen after winter and include repairs to the road structure and surface, drainage, and kerb and channel, and also raising service lids so that they’ll be level with the new surface. This is why it looks like we come to the site multiple times.

A letter drop will be undertaken 5-10 days before your road is resurfaced.
