Benefits of road surface dressing
Surface dressing is a long established and proven road maintenance technique and offers many advantages, including:
- Provides a waterproof seal to a surface of the carriageway or footpath
- Prevents the ingress of water and the subsequent damage to underlying foundations
- Increases the skid resistance of a surface course by providing increased texture depth
- Provides a decorative appearance to the carriageway or footway by using naturally coloured aggregates
Surface dressing initially involves power sweeping all areas of the surface, potholes are levelled and tests carried out to ensure that water runs off the road correctly and does not gather in puddles.
Hot bitumen binder emulsion is applied on all cracked and filled in areas. Hot bitumen binder is then applied at a specific rate of speed from a bitumen sprayer, in accordance with BS 1701. The coating is then covered with stone chippings which are rolled into the bitumen to form a water resistant, protective layer.
