Frequently Asked Questions
What is bitumen sealing and why is it used?
Bitumen sealing involves applying a layer of bitumen binder followed by aggregate (stone) to create a protective surface on roads and driveways. It’s commonly used in rural and regional areas because it provides a durable, weather-resistant finish that helps extend the life of the road. Bitumen seals protect against moisture, UV damage, and everyday traffic wear, making it a cost-effective solution for maintaining surfaces in harsh environments.
How long does a bitumen seal last?
The lifespan of a bitumen seal depends on several factors, including traffic volume, climate, and maintenance. In most cases, a properly applied seal can last 10 to 15 years before needing to be reapplied. Regular inspections and timely resealing can extend the surface life even further. Roads in high-traffic or flood-prone areas may require more frequent attention.
What’s the difference between asphalt and bitumen sealing?
While both are used for surfacing roads, they’re different in composition and application. Bitumen sealing is a sprayed application of binder and aggregate, typically used in rural or regional areas. Asphalt is a premixed blend of bitumen and aggregate, laid hot and compacted, often used in urban roads and high-traffic areas. Bitumen sealing is generally more cost-effective for long stretches and lighter traffic conditions.
