Pothole Repairs in West Houghton and the surrounding area
Your staff and customers walk over a broken patch by the entrance every day, and filling it once has not held. We cut back to sound material rather than fill, because a pothole filled that way comes straight back. On pothole repairs in West Houghton we square up the failed area, remove the loose material, tack the edges, reinstate in hot material and compact it flush with the surrounding surface. Where a run of holes points to a failing base rather than a surface problem, we say so and price the repair that fixes it.
Potholes only get worse, and they cause real wear to vehicles, so the sooner they are dealt with the less they cost. We repair potholes with quality materials that hold, cutting back to sound material rather than just filling the hole, and we can offer a rapid repair where a surface has failed.
What’s included
- The failed area squared up and cut back to sound material
- Loose material removed and edges tacked
- Reinstated in hot material and compacted flush
- An honest view on whether the base has failed

Why us
Why choose THB Contractors
We look at a job properly before we price it, we build the base for the ground we actually find, and you get the same team from the first visit to the last sweep-up. That is worth knowing, because you are trusting someone to dig up the front of your property or take a car park out of use for a few days. We have worked that way for over 20 years across Bolton, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, West Houghton included.
We are based in Bolton, and the area we work stretches across Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire. West Houghton and the WN5 postcodes sit close to home in that, so we are there often. Hindley, Leigh, Atherton and Blackrod are covered alongside it, on exactly the same footing.
Over 20 years’ experience
Twenty years of laying driveways, patios and commercial surfaces across the North West have given us our reputation, and we keep it with quality workmanship and tidy, reliable jobs.
A written, itemised quote
We put the price in writing after the visit, so you know what the job costs before it starts and there are no surprises later.
The base done properly
Most surfaces fail from underneath. We build the base for the ground we find on the day rather than digging every job out to the same spec.
The same people throughout
The people who quote your job are the people who finish it, so you deal with the same team throughout.
Domestic and commercial
We price and plan a single driveway with the same care we give a full car park.
The price
What affects the price
We quote a West Houghton job after a free site visit, because a price worked out on the ground fits the job in front of us far better than one guessed off a description.
The main things that move the figure:
- The number and size of the repairs
- Whether the base beneath has failed
- Access and any traffic management
- How far apart the repairs are across the site
