Chemical Dust Suppression & Soil Stabilization in Chicago

Keep Your Construction Site EPA Compliant with Gasaway Maintenance Company’s Dust Control Solutions

Standard watering is often a temporary fix for a permanent problem. Gasaway Maintenance Company provides advanced chemical dust suppression services designed to stabilize soil and eliminate airborne particulates for weeks or months at a time. We serve industrial facilities, rail yards, and large-scale construction projects across Chicago, Naperville, Joliet, and the Midwest.

Long-Term Dust Suppressant Applications

Unlike water, which evaporates in hours, our specialized chemical applications create a durable crust or binding effect on the surface. We provide customized solutions for a variety of sites.

Construction Haul Roads & Staging Areas

For long-term projects, chemical suppression is more cost-effective than daily water truck cycles. One application can keep a haul road dust-free for an entire season, even under heavy load traffic.

Unpaved Roads & Industrial Parking Lots

We apply industrial-grade hygroscopic agents and binders that pull moisture from the air to keep surfaces damp or bind aggregates together. This significantly reduces the need for grading and aggregate replacement.

Rail Yards & Intermodal Facilities

Heavy equipment and constant traffic create significant dust challenges in rail environments. Our application process stabilizes high-traffic areas, improving visibility and safety while protecting sensitive machinery from abrasive dust.

Why Choose Chemical Suppression Over Standard Watering?

Switching from water-only suppression to professional chemical application offers several logistical and financial advantages.

  • Improved Safety & Visibility: By eliminating the dust cloud effect, you improve site safety for drivers and ground crews, reducing the risk of accidents.
  • Drastic Cost Savings: One application of our proprietary dust suppressant blend can replace dozens of water truck cycles, significantly lowering your long-term labor and equipment costs.

  • Environmental Compliance: Our suppressants help sites meet EPA and local environmental standards for fugitive dust control without the runoff issues associated with over-watering.

  • Reduced Vehicle Wear: Stabilized roads mean less vibration and abrasive dust getting into engines and air filters, extending the life of your fleet.

FAQs

How long does a single chemical application last?
Duration depends on traffic volume and weather conditions, but our professional application typically lasts between 3 to 6 months. We can customize the concentration of the palliative based on the intended lifespan of your project.
Are the dust suppression chemicals safe for the environment?

Yes. We utilize environmentally friendly suppressants that are designed to bind to the soil without leaching into the groundwater.

Can you apply these chemicals to existing gravel or dirt roads?

Absolutely. Our formula is regularly applied to unpaved roads to immediately bind loose fines and stabilize the surface.

Dust Control: Good For the Environment

A Dust Control Program prevents erosion, improves air quality, and contributes to cleaner waterways. Browse the EPA’s Particulate Matter (PM)  to learn more about how dust control can help protect the environment in Illinois.

Thank you, for taking care of our back lot last night! It worked out perfectly and we didn’t have issues pulling out any of the trucks.
