Pothole repairs in Birmingham

Our head office is at Birmingham Business Park in B37, so Birmingham is where our crews start and finish most days. From the city centre to Erdington, Selly Oak, Yardley and Kings Heath, we can usually get out to look at a pothole quickly and give you a written price. For professional pothole repairs in Birmingham, our own direct workforce cuts, fills, compacts and seals every repair.

Why potholes appear in Birmingham

Busy routes such as the A38, A45, A34 and the Middleway ring road carry heavy traffic and buses, and the car parks, service yards and private roads that feed off them take a beating. Frequent freeze-thaw winters and standing water open small cracks into potholes fast.

A local, permanent repair

Being based in East Birmingham, close to the M6, M42 and A45, means travel time is short and we can often fit repairs around opening hours, early mornings or weekends to keep your car park or yard open.

How we repair potholes in Birmingham

  1. 1

    Cut back the edges

    We cut back the damaged surface to create defined edges for the repair.

  2. 2

    Remove damaged material

    The broken asphalt is lifted out and loose material is cleared from the repair area.

  3. 3

    Apply the bonding coat

    A bonding coat is applied to the prepared area to help the new material adhere to the existing surface.

  4. 4

    Lay and level the tarmac

    Fresh tarmac is placed and spread evenly, ready for compaction.

  5. 5

    Compact the repair

    The tarmac is compacted to form a firm repair that meets the surrounding road surface.

  6. 6

    Seal the edges

    The joints are sealed to help protect the repair edges against water entering.
