Road Surface Dressing Service in Huntingdon

Road Surface Dressing is a way of restoring a surface and sealing it at the same time, which is highly cost-effective. We've offered Road Surface Dressing services in Huntingdon for over 30 years and we're proud of our reputation throughout Cambridgeshire.

What is Road Surface Dressing?

The road is sprayed with bitumen binder, then a layer of stone/chippings. This is then pressed into the surface with a roller. More stone/chippings are then applied to ensure a uniform coating of the emulsion to complete the process.

How it works

  1. Surface Dress is weather dependent and cannot be applied to wet or cold roads or in high temperatures and high humidity.
  2. The road is swept and cleared of any build up and loose all ironwork masked over.
  3. Once swept we use the Sprayer machine which is driven slowly to spread the bitumen evenly along the road spreading it across the width of the box.
  4. Following the sprayer machine is the chipping spreader and lorries. More of the chippings are spread on the road to prevent traffic or pedestrians from picking up wet tar.
  5. There maybe two coats of tar and chip applied in two layers depending on the type of surface dressing.
  6. This will then be given an initial embedment with a pneumatic tyred roller. This helps the material to embed and achieve its optimum strength.
  7. Once completed there will be some degree of stone loss or loose. A suction sweeper will be used to remove this in stages. We will place traffic signs advising of the risk of loose chippings and have signs to show an advisory speed limit.
  8. The sweep normally takes place 24 to 48 hours after the process any sooner than this may damage the surface.
  9. All masking is removed from the ironwork on the road.
  10. Traffic will be allowed onto the surface but must be at low speeds, this will help to embed the chippings.
  11. The freshly laid surface maybe sticky so we advise to check your shoes and pets paws before entering your house. This is only short term until the surface has settled.
  12. Once the surface is embedded and settled and there is no loss of chippings all temporary signage will be removed.
