How long does slurry seal last?
Slurry seal is a cold mixture of aggregates, asphalt emulsion and water to create a paving treatment. It is used to protect and enhance the value of asphalt surfaces. As asphalt naturally breaks down when exposed to UV rays from the sun, water and traffic, slurry seal acts as a maintenance treatment to the asphalt surface. It helps prevent water from dampening and damaging the asphalt and gives the surface a fresh new face.
