Efficiency is king when it comes to managing a busy retail park. At Elite Markings Ltd, we recently completed a surface maintenance project in Taunton, Somerset, where we showcased exactly how we save our clients time and money.
The Challenge: Damaged Surface & joint cracking
The site was suffering from a common issue: extensive pothole damage and surface cracking right in the middle of a high-traffic junction. To make matters worse, the existing road markings (directional arrows) were located directly over the defects.
Normally, a client would have to hire a repair team, wait for the surface to set, and then book a separate line marking company to come back days later.
The Elite Solution: The Roadmender Advantage
At Elite Markings Ltd, we do things differently. We utilize the Roadmender hot-applied system, a BBA/HAPAS approved material that incorporates recycled tyre rubber for a durable, flexible, and eco-friendly finish.
What sets this project apart was our “Single-Visit” approach:
- Integrated Equipment: We operate a specialized fleet where our line marking vehicle and pothole equipment travel as one unit.
- Rapid Installation: After preparing the area, we applied the Roadmender material to the potholes and cracks. Because it cures so rapidly, we didn’t have to wait.
- Immediate Re-marking: As soon as the repair was set, we replaced the directional arrows that had been covered during the repair process.
Why This Matters for Your Business
By combining these two services into a single visit, we provided the client with:
- Reduced Costs: No need to pay for two separate call-out fees or mobilization costs.
- Minimum Disruption: The car park was fully functional and clearly marked in a fraction of the time a traditional two-stage repair would take.
- High-Performance Results: The Roadmender system is designed for high-stress areas, ensuring the repair lasts far longer than standard cold-patch methods.
Our Quality Guarantee
We stand by the quality of the products we use and the skill of our team. Whether we are filling a pothole or painting new markings we take pride in the finish.
Elite Markings Ltd is proud to offer a 1-year guarantee on all our pot hole work and 2 years on all our road and car park markings.
If you have a car park in Somerset or across the South West that needs professional attention, why pay for two visits when you only need one?
