Daniel Kearns had his windscreen chipped after he drove down Mazengarb Rd in Paraparaumu.

Complaints keep coming about the sticky situation on the Kāpiti Coast.

Motorists caught out by the botched reseal on Paraparaumu streets, north of Wellington, continue to come forward with claims of damaged paintwork, chipped windscreens and tar-covered carpet.

Kāpiti Coast District Council infrastructure group manager Sean Mallon said contractor Downer was responsible for the failed work, but the council would act on behalf of those affected.

SUPPLIED Damage to a Kāpiti garage after a botched reseal on Paraparaumu roads by council contractor Downer.

"We've had 37 service requests in total. We're continuing to refer these to Downer who we understand have received a few more directly."

Potentially hundreds of vehicles have been damaged after travelling on the roads in the past week.

VIRGINIA FALLON/STUFF The Kapiti Coast District Council has apologised to motorists who have had vehicles damaged by a botched re-seal job on Paraparaumu roads.

About 2km of Mazengarb Rd - home to Paraparaumu College and a childcare centre - have been affected, as has Guildford Dr, Hadleigh Ct and College Dr.

A Downer spokeswoman blamed weather conditions for the failure, which left drifts of gravel and exposed tar over at least 4 kilometres.

"Resealing work is sensitive to temperature changes and is designed to cover average weather conditions. The sudden burst of cold weather impacted the resealing job and adversely affected the end result."

SUPPLIED Damage to a garage carpet.

Downer was working with the council to address the complaints and would continue to monitor the sites, sweeping any loose chip as required.

"The chip seal of the road will be urgently programmed at the next dry, warm spell. We regret the trouble that this has caused for residents."

She did not say how many people had contacted the company

VIRGINIA FALLON The council apologised to motorists.

Paraparaumu man Jack Nuttall had two cars damaged by the stone chips and paid $140 to have the tar removed from his tyres which had turned "slick" due to the build-up.

He praised the help from the council, but said he was frustrated with Downer.

"Perhaps a more proactive response should have taken place with the offer of remediation rather than the public having to chase up roading contamination."

SUPPLIED Spots of tar cover Helen Tangira's brand new white Holden. She says they came from Mazengarb Rd.

Daniel Kearns said his windscreen was damaged on Monday night when stone chips were thrown up by oncoming cars travelling on Mazengarb Rd.

A single father, Kearns said he couldn't afford insurance and believed the windscreen would need to be replaced.

"I'm highly disappointed in the quality of workmanship that has gone into this road."
