Microsurfacing & Slurry seal

Micro Surfacing is made and applied to existing pavements by special machines, which are designed to carry all components, mixes them on site, and spreads the mixture onto the road surface. Materials are continuously and accurately measured, and then thoroughly combined in the machines’ mixer. As the machine moves forward, the mixture is continuously fed into a full-width “surfacing” box which spreads the width of a traffic lane in a single pass. Or specially engineered “rut” boxes, designed to deliver the largest aggregate particles into the deepest part of the rut to give maximum stability in the wheel path, may be used. Edges of the Micro Surfacing are automatically feathered.

The new surface is initially a dark brown color and changes to the finished black surface as the water is chemically ejected and the surface cures, permitting traffic within one hour in most cases.
