Description
Even the best of
surfaces are subject to the wear and
tear caused by time, weather and traffic.
No surface is permanent. But by undertaking
a program of planned pavement maintenance,
considerable savings in rehabilitation
costs may be achieved. Your pavement
surface will remain sound, usable and
safe. Plus, extensive downtime needed
to repair potholes or reconstruct the
pavement will be reduced or eliminated.
The
application of slurry seal will significantly
extend the life of existing pavements by
protecting the under-surface from the effects
of aging and the environment. Improved
surface performance is an added bonus.
Furthermore,
a pavement maintenance program using slurry
seal will not only help to protect your
pavement, it will help to protect your
paving investment. Consider all the factors,
and see why slurry seal should be your
top choice.
Prevent
Problems. Used over newly laid
pavements, slurry seal will prevent surface
distresses such as the effects of weathering.
Oxidation, loss of oils, loss of matrix
and embrittlement of the mix are minimized.
It also provides special durability and
texture not available in the underlying
mix.
Correct
Problems. Existing distresses in older
pavements - surface cracking, raveling,
loss of matrix, increased water and air
permeability and slipperiness due to flushing
or aggregate polishing - can be corrected
through a slurry application. Weather-proofing
is also achieved, preventing further deterioration.
An all-weather, long-lasting surface is
created that offers skid resistance and
improved handling characteristics for drivers. |
