Road Rehabilitation

By the Permanent Pothole Solutions team · Updated 26 October 2026

Asphalt in a Bag fills potholes with a dense material that compacts and cures under minimal effort, preventing further water penetration.

Repairs before resurfacing or marking

Any new surface, seal or line marking is only as good as the pavement under it. Fix potholes with Asphalt in a Bag and seal cracks with Rubberised Crack Filler first. Our dense mixes don’t bleed bitumen to the surface, so patches don’t need removing before an overlay.

Choosing the right gauge

Why Asphalt in a Bag

• Permanent. Expands and contracts with the road surface, so the patch moves with the pavement instead of breaking away.
• Cures on impact. Curing is activated by compaction — tamp it or roll it and it sets.
• Bonds to anything. Adheres to asphalt, concrete, steel and even wood.
• Any weather. Apply from -26°C to 49°C, in rain, or straight into a pothole full of water.
• No tack coat. No pre-coating or priming. Open, pour, compact.
• Traffic-ready. Application is up to five times faster, and it can take traffic immediately.
