ROAD CONSTRUCTION & INFRASTRUCTURE
Bituminous Mastic Work
Dense bituminous mastic surfacing for flyovers, bridge decks and other heavy-duty areas where a durable, low-permeability finish is required.
Overview
Bituminous mastic is a dense surfacing material designed to form a durable and closely sealed wearing layer. It is commonly considered for bridge decks, flyovers and other demanding road areas where resistance to water penetration and repeated traffic is important. Jay Ambe offers mastic-work execution for project-specific requirements, with the surface preparation, layer thickness and interface treatment taken from the approved drawings and specification.

Key capabilities
- Dense, durable surfacing for demanding road locations
- Careful preparation of the deck or receiving surface
- Attention to edges, joints and adjoining pavement levels
- Execution coordinated with the approved project specification
Scope of work
- Inspect the receiving deck or pavement and confirm levels, access and surface condition.
- Repair, clean and prepare the base before surfacing begins.
- Coordinate the specified waterproofing, bond or separation treatment where the design requires it.
- Place and spread the mastic material to the approved line, level and thickness.
- Complete joints, edges and transitions, then protect and inspect the finished surface.

Frequently asked questions
Mastic is a dense, specialised surfacing treatment. Ordinary resurfacing usually uses conventional asphalt courses over an existing pavement, while mastic work follows a project-specific deck or surface detail.
It is commonly considered for flyovers, bridge decks and other demanding surfaces where a dense and durable finish is required.
No. Thickness, preparation and interface treatment must follow the approved drawings and project specification.
The receiving surface must first be inspected and prepared. Repairs or a specified interface system may be required before placement.
