In Australia, trenches dug for utilities like water and electricity are repaired using asphalt. Asphalt is strong, durable, and quick to install, making roads safe and smooth again fast. It also withstands heavy traffic and changing weather, ensuring long-lasting repairs that meet Australian standards.
Accurate trench measurement is essential before repair or backfilling. Measure the trench’s length, width, and depth using tape measures or laser tools to ensure the right amount of materials and proper restoration. Precise measurements help maintain road integrity and safety after repairs
With all measurements confirmed and markings in place, proceed to cut or mill the existing surface as needed.
Installing a new asphalt trench correctly is key to a durable and smooth surface. After preparing the area, apply tack coat. Asphalt is laid evenly into the trench or repair area. It is then compacted using rollers or compactors to create a strong, long-lasting finish that can withstand traffic and weather
After laying and compacting the asphalt trench, applying crack sealant around the edges helps prevent water infiltration and extends the repair’s lifespan. Crack sealing fills small gaps and joints, protecting the patch from damage caused by moisture and traffic stress. This maintenance step ensures a durable, long-lasting surface.
