Why Choose Masterscreed?
Why Choose Masterscreed?
Masterscreed™ is a proprietary highway patching and repair material. The high performance synthetic binder combines the coarse and fine aggregate matrix into a hot, pourable compound which is screeded over the defective area. The voids are filled and the surface sealed in one operation. The voidless repair needs no compaction and is simply open to traffic once cooled.
The Problem
Masterscreed is the solution to a wide variety of highway defects that have previously been difficult to repair cost-effectively.
General defects, from potholes to surface regulation, need treating prior to the application of surface treatments such as surface dressing. With Masterscreed, a wide variety of defects for pre-treatment can be quickly and effectively tackled with this one straightforward process, so that any road can be made ready for surface dressing and any profile can be returned for a running surface.
The Solution
Masterscreed is a durable, cost effective and versatile material making it the best option for any surface defect. It is ideal for pre-surface treatment programmes or as a final running surface.
