Microsurfacing

Microsurfacing is a thin pavement preservation treatment used for preventive maintenance and rehabilitation. It combines emulsified bitumen, fine aggregate, mineral filler or cement and additives, then places the mixture in a thin layer over an existing road surface to improve texture and extend pavement life.

Applications

  • Urban roads: used to maintain and renew city streets while improving surface condition and safety.
  • Rural roads: can extend pavement life and reduce the frequency of more extensive repairs.
  • Highways: rapid placement can reduce traffic disruption compared with more extensive reconstruction.
  • Parking areas: can renew suitable surfaces with a smooth, durable and textured finish.
+

Benefits

  • Durability: microsurfacing strengthens the wearing surface and improves resistance to weather and traffic.
  • Rapid application: the treatment can be placed quickly, reducing closure time in appropriate conditions.
  • Cost effectiveness: it can be less expensive than full reconstruction when used on suitable pavement.
  • Safety improvement: renewed texture can improve traction and surface uniformity.
YOUR PROJECT

Let’s talk about your project.

Microsurfacing is an efficient pavement-preservation option for suitable roads and parking areas. By renewing the wearing surface and improving texture, it can extend service life and delay more extensive rehabilitation when applied at the right stage of pavement deterioration.
