Frequently Asked Questions

Road surfacing is the application of a hard-wearing top layer to roads, pathways and other trafficked areas to improve grip, safety and durability. It covers everything from everyday asphalt to specialist treatments such as anti-skid high friction surfacing, which is installed at junctions, crossings and other high-risk locations to reduce stopping distances. At QMS, we specialise in these surface treatments, including our BBA HAPAS Type 1 approved HyperGrip™ system. You can read more in our high friction surfacing guide.

The frequency of road resurfacing can vary greatly depending on several factors, including traffic volume, weather conditions, and the quality of the initial construction.

Generally, roads should be resurfaced every 10 to 15 years to maintain optimal safety and performance. However, heavily trafficked roads or those exposed to harsh weather may require more frequent attention, sometimes as often as every 5 to 7 years. In high-risk areas such as junctions and crossings, applying anti-skid high friction surfacing can restore grip without the cost of a full resurface, with cold-applied systems lasting over 12 years.

Regular inspections can help identify wear and damage early, allowing for timely maintenance that can extend the lifespan of the road and minimise long-term costs. And remember, once a road has been resurfaced, highway line markings will need to be reinstated too, which our crews can install as part of the same visit.

Temperature, humidity, and precipitation can have a direct effect on the longevity of your road surfacing. For instance, extreme heat can cause asphalt to soften and lose its structural integrity, while cold temperatures may hinder the proper adhesion of surfacing materials, increasing the risk of cracking and premature failure. Rain and moisture can also complicate the curing process, leading to inadequate bonding and a weakened surface.

This is why the choice of material matters. Our cold-applied HyperGrip™ system was developed to avoid the cracking and curing problems associated with traditional hot-applied high friction surfacing, while our permeable resin bound surfacing allows rainwater to drain through rather than pool on the surface.

Look out for:

  • Visible cracks
  • Potholes
  • Ruts
  • Rough or uneven surfaces
  • A smooth, polished surface with reduced grip
  • Fading road markings
  • Discolouration
  • Increased water pooling during rainy weather

Addressing these symptoms promptly can enhance road safety and extend the lifespan of the infrastructure.

There has been a couple of crews doing the lining and antiskid works local to me on the new surfacing project on Callington road, Tavistock and the quality of work is spot on. Its done nothing but rain here for the last 2 months and as someone who spent over 25 years lining I can appreciate what they`ve been up against, especially with anti skid and MMA lining materials.

Great company! I recently used this company for a last minute job. They were really busy but they managed to squeeze me in. It’s really nice to work with a company that come out in person and really listen to what you need, and then work with you to achieve it! Thanks QMS, you were great! Highly recommend!
