• 768 sq.m of Masterscreed repairs
• 3¼ tonne of pre-patching material repaired potholes prior to the Masterscreed finish
• Work completed in 4 days
• Carried out with Stop & Go traffic control

Problem: Potholes and surface deterioration

Solution: Potholes and deep holes prefilled with Jointmaster™ IMP patching material (BBA HAPAS certificate 09/H149) then areas of deterioration coated with Masterscreed™ hot screed repair

Problem: Numerous potholes and patches had appeared following recent severe winters. They were so numerous that the additional resource was required by the council to treat them all in a timely manner.

Solution: Masterscreed was chosen as it quickly and safely restores the running surface, arrests further deterioration and recovers the carriageway profile.

• Sites fully open to traffic at the end of each shift
• Installed between March 2010 and February 2011

Client: Essex County Council. 

Site: A127 Southend Arterial Road heading westbound from Basildon towards the M25 junction. 

Problem: The Stone Mastic Asphalt had deteriorated leaving a lean & hungry surface with some areas of potholing. The client was looking for a short to mid-term solution before carrying out more extensive reconstruction / resurfacing work. 

Solution: Masterscreed was chosen for its ability to: 

• Restore a safe running surface
• Arrest further deterioration
• Recover some of the carriageway profile 

• Works were carried out over night between 21:30 hrs and 05:30 hrs
• 1,000 sq.m and treated in 5 nights 
• The site fully open to traffic each morning before the rush hour 
• Outputs of 200 sq.m per night 
• Average Traffic Volumes 33,000 vehicles per day 

The problem at this location was the lack of time. Given the condition of the surface, it was due for resurfacing and sub-grade repairs but remained unfunded for the next 18 months. 

A simple and quick solution such as Masterscreed, provided the all-important breathing space by extending the asset life, providing a safe durable finish, understanding that a permanent solution would eventually address the sub-grade issues. 

• 14 speed cushions completed in 2 shifts 
• The major holes and defects were pre-patched
• A surface coat of Masterscreed was applied to the complete cushion 

A fast and effective repair was needed to restore 5 road humps in Lewes Town Centre. The solution was Masterscreed. Initially the potholes were patched and repaired with the hot applied Masterscreed material, before treating the whole surface with a screed of the same material. 

5 road humps in Lewes town were treated in a single overnight road closure and were completed in less than 4 hours. 

A village gateway was required in Ringmer, East Sussex and we applied a red Masterscreed to this section of road to alert drivers to the presence of a speed reduction area.

Masterscreed in red was used to message the drivers that this area was not an additional lane, but instead an area that was not to be driven on.

Masterscreed was chosen here based on previous experience and performance. Designed to hold and delay resurfacing, Masterscreed provided a durable alterative to full resurfacing 

• There were 44 patches along 600m of site (2,181m²)
• Works were delivered over 5 night shifts with multiple crews where needed
• A mixture of red Masterscreed for the coloured surfacing areas and black for the maintenance repairs
