Slurry Seal  

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.
