Surface Dressing for Road Preservation: also known as Tar & Chip is a proven and cost-effective method to extend the lifespan of roads across various authorities. By utilizing a combination of bitumen and chippings, this treatment seals the road surface, protecting it from the damaging effects of water and air over time. Our skilled team applies surface dressing to enhance skid resistance, thereby improving road safety through increased grip.
Benefits of Surface Dressing: Surface dressing is specifically designed for roads that are approaching the end of their lifespan but haven't started to fail. This means that the roads being treated may be in better condition compared to others in the county. Our surface dressing service not only restores and reinforces worn-out roads but also offers the following advantages...
Enhanced Skid Resistance: The chippings added to the bitumen binder provide increased grip, improving skid resistance and road safety.
