Bridge decks, whether concrete, latex modified or asphalt top, need routine maintenance to keep them in optimal form. In some cases, the whole surface may need to be removed.

In general, bridges are complex structures that require a high degree of precision to achieve the desired finished profile and mistakes can be costly. This is where the highly experienced staff at SPE Contracting can help; with many years of experience in this field on some of the biggest bridges in the UK, we can ensure that any of your forthcoming bridge preparation projects are completed with diligence and efficiency.

Bridges are constantly in battle with the elements as well as the tremendous wear and tear they undergo from traffic. Whether latex modified or asphalt top, cleaning, removing surface contaminants, anti-skid and line markings are a regular activity in bridge maintenance. But it is inevitable that at some stage the whole surface may need to be replaced as the deck, waterproof membranes, etc. fail.

A properly prepared and profile surface is essential. Our contracting staff have the expertise to make sure the desired finish is achieved. Failure to achieve the precision required here can be a costly mistake.

In certain circumstances, it may be desirable to provide a new coating / surface to the bridge deck. This may be especially so with deep contamination and when any protective membranes fail.

On many steel bridge decks this can involve the scarifying / planing of the top thin polymer surface prior to the removal of any failed surface. The bridge walkways may also be processed at the same time if required.

Thorough cleaning and profiling using captive shot blasting then follows.

More often, remedial work is necessary to keep the bridge deck in top condition. This needs skilled contractors to make such the work is done quickly to ensure any highway closure is kept to a minimum.
