Elite Markings Ltd recently headed over to Toolstation Bath to tackle some essential maintenance before minor issues became major headaches. Our team was on-site out of hours to ensure zero disruption to customers and staff, completing the work while the branch was closed.
The Challenge: Failing Surface Joints
We identified several surface joints that were beginning to open up. Left untreated, these gaps act as an entry point for water and winter frost. In the UK climate, the freeze-thaw cycle is the primary cause of road failure—water enters the joint, freezes, expands, and eventually tears the tarmac apart, leading to deep potholes and costly repairs.
The Solution: Hot-Applied Road Mender Resin
To prevent this, we utilized our high-performance hot-applied road mender resin. Our process included:
- Joint Sealing: We meticulously sealed the failing joints to create a watertight barrier.
- Preventative Care: By “locking” the surface now, we’ve stopped water penetration in its tracks.
- Life Extension: These works will prolong the life of the existing surface at Toolstation for many years to come, saving the client from a full resurfacing project down the line.
Whether it’s a retail park in Bath or a private commercial site across the region, our goal is always to provide durable, high-quality finishes with minimal impact on your daily operations.
