Surface dressing

This is amongst the best value surfacing available and is used extensively by highway authorities throughout the UK road network.

This process consists of applying hot bitumous emulsion to an existing Tarmac/concrete surface by specialist spraying equipment.

original?tenant=vbu-digital

Once this bitumous

emulsion is applied, hard, clean aggregates are distributed. 

This combination of binder and hard stone is then rolled and trafficked to encourage embedding of the chippings to form a durable layer, protecting the older surface beneath against wear and water ingress. There is a choice of aggregates available for different aesthetics.

Double dressing

This process is similar to the above, but instead of applying the bitumous emulsion to an existing blacktop/concrete surface the binder is sprayed on

original?tenant=vbu-digital
original?tenant=vbu-digital

or incorporated into the unbound aggregate surface.

Typical unbound surface suitable for double dressing.

Surface dressing is seasonal work, normally carried out from April - September.
