Municipal roadways: Repairs are more efficient and less costly with EZ Street cold asphaltEZ Street is used worldwide – in Canada, Europe, Latin America, Australia and the United States – changing the way that breaks in pavement are repaired. Able to be stockpiled for up to six months, there is no wait time for road crews at a hot mix plant. They simply use what they need, when they need it.
Potholes
EZ Street cold asphalt can be used to patch or repair any pothole anywhere – city roads, highways, bridge surfaces, even parking lots. Install EZ Street in a water filled pothole and/or in freezing temperatures to -18 °C. When possible, clean foreign debris from the pothole utilizing a broom or compressed air then place EZ Street into the pothole and compact with a shovel, hand tamper, or drive over it. Watch our demonstration video. Typically, EZ Street material should be left higher than the surrounding hard surface in order to accommodate secondary compaction resulting from traffic flow.

Utility Cuts, Overlays & Edge Repairs
There’s a better way for utility cut and trench reinstatements. EZ Street cold asphalt can be utilized as a permanent trench patching, overlay, or edge repair material if proper installation procedures are followed. As with any material, optimum placement of a well compacted, solid, unyielding base is imperative under the EZ Street material in order to avoid trench failure that can result from settling, rutting, or shoving. EZ Street cold asphalt can be expected to consolidate up to 40% before maximum density is achieved. Install in 25 mm lifts.
Manholes, Water Valves & Drains
EZ Street cold asphalt can serve as a permanent material around manhole covers, water valves, drains, and catch basin grates if installed properly. Achieving adequate compaction should be the primary focus as the hardware can cause significant compaction obstacles and may tend to shift under traffic. It is recommended that the EZ Street material be left slightly higher than the surrounding hard surface in order to accommodate secondary compaction as a result of traffic flow.
