Laying the Groundwork for Long-Lasting Seals
Primer seals are more than a basic step—they’re the foundation for a lasting, high-performance surface. At Cuzkell, we apply primes and primer seals to improve bitumen adhesion, minimise surface failures and ensure the final sealing layer performs as intended. This is especially important on lightly trafficked or granular pavements, where a stable bond is critical to the integrity of the finished surface. We assess the site conditions, choose the appropriate bitumen and aggregate application rate, and deliver a clean, even finish every time.
- Suitable for Driveways & Access Roads
- Prevents Early Surface Degradation
- Applied to Site Conditions

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a primer seal in road construction?
A primer seal is a preparatory treatment used before the final bitumen seal is applied. It involves spraying a low-viscosity bitumen (primer) onto a compacted base course, followed by a light layer of aggregate. This process binds the surface and provides temporary waterproofing while also enhancing adhesion for the final seal. It’s commonly used on new roads or stabilised pavements to ensure the top layer bonds effectively.
When should primer seals be used?
Primer seals are typically used when sealing over unbound or granular pavements, especially those with low traffic volumes. They are ideal in situations where the final bitumen seal will not be applied immediately or where the base needs protection from moisture and traffic. In some cases, they’re used as part of a staged construction process to stabilise the surface before full sealing.
What is the difference between primes and primer seals?
Primes are used without aggregate and serve to penetrate and bind the base material, often when sealing isn’t immediately planned. Primer seals, on the other hand, include a light aggregate cover and offer both surface protection and a better bond for the eventual sealing layer. The choice between them depends on site conditions, timelines and traffic needs.
