              Frequently Asked Questions

              What is cold mix asphalt, and where is it used?

              Cold mix asphalt is a premixed asphalt that doesn’t require heating before application. It’s perfect for small repairs like potholes, as it’s quick to apply and dries fast, saving time and reducing repair costs.

              How does bitumen emulsion work?

               Bitumen emulsion is a liquid form of bitumen, mixed with water, that improves the bonding of the pavement layers. It creates a more resilient surface and is ideal for Port Elizabeth’s climate.

              Can I use tar surfacing for a commercial parking lot?

              Absolutely! We offer tar paving for commercial applications, including parking lots and large industrial sites. Our materials provide durability against high traffic loads.

              What maintenance is required for tar surfaces?
