Chip & Seal is also known as Tar & Chip and Chip-seal. It's a pavement surface treatment that combines one or more layers of asphalt followed by one or more layers of fine aggregate. Chip-seals are typically used on rural roads carrying lower traffic volumes. Sub-division roads and ranch roads often use chipseal because it’s half the cost of asphalt.

Benefits:

• Cost-effective asphalt surface
• covers large amounts for half the cost of paved asphalt
• provides a clean natural landscape look
• a variety of rock color is available
• long-lasting driveway alternative
• eliminates the need for seal-coating and crack-fill

Construction Procedure:

• the road surface is properly cleaned of debris and holes are filled
• commercial road-base is applied in an adequate layer
• hot liquid asphalt is evenly sprayed over the road-base
• a chip spreader applies a layer of small aggregate and is rolled
• a second coat of hot liquid asphalt is applied
• a second layer of chips are applied and rolled

With the right drainage and good road base, chip-seal driveways make a fine driving surface for many years.
