Resurfacing Programme Frequently Asked Questions

Before resurfacing works take place there is often the need for some ‘pre works patching’.  This is to fill in the worst of the pot holes and irregularities before the new surface is laid.  There may be a delay of several weeks between the ‘patching’ works and the final surface.
