Northern Highways Bitumen is your trusted provider of professional spray seal services. Spray sealing is a fast, economical, and efficient method for roadway surfacing and maintenance, designed to extend the life of existing pavements by restoring their functionality and appearance.
Spray sealing involves the application of a bitumen emulsion followed by a layer of aggregate, creating a new wearing surface. This process significantly improves the pavement’s skid resistance, waterproofing capabilities, and overall durability. It is a widely used method for both constructing new roads and maintaining existing ones, ensuring safe and reliable surfaces for vehicular traffic.

Spray sealing is a versatile technique used for both new road construction and maintenance of existing pavements. Its applications include:
Road Resurfacing
Ideal for highways, rural roads, and urban streets, spray sealing creates a durable and skid-resistant surface, enhancing safety for motorists.
Maintenance Measures
For roads suffering from surface damage, a single coat of spray seal can significantly extend the pavement's life by providing a new wearing surface and restoring its waterproofing capabilities.
Carparks and Driveways
Spray sealing is also effective for smaller-scale applications such as carparks and driveways, offering a cost-effective way to improve surface conditions and aesthetics.
Spray sealing is ideal for a variety of surfaces, including highways, rural roads, urban streets, parking lots, and driveways. It is particularly effective for pavements suffering from surface damage.
The lifespan of a spray-sealed surface depends on traffic volume, weather conditions, and maintenance practices. Generally, spray sealing can extend the life of a pavement by several years.
Yes, spray sealing is durable enough to handle heavy traffic. However, for very high-traffic areas, additional layers or alternative surfacing methods may be recommended.
Regular inspections and minor repairs can help maintain the integrity of a spray-sealed surface. Occasional reapplication of the spray seal can further extend its lifespan.
Spray sealing can be applied in a variety of climates, though extreme cold or wet conditions may affect the curing process. Our team schedules applications during optimal weather conditions to ensure the best results.
