Tar and chip installations are a popular choice for driveways and pathways due to their affordability and aesthetic appeal. This method involves applying a hot liquid asphalt binder followed by a layer of crushed stone or gravel, which is then compacted to create a durable surface. The textured finish offers excellent traction and a rustic look that complements various property styles. The process can be completed relatively quickly, often within a few days, depending on the size of the project and weather conditions.
The durability of tar and chip surfaces depends on proper installation and maintenance. They can withstand heavy traffic and adverse weather conditions when installed correctly. Additionally, the surface can be customized with different colors and stone types, providing flexibility in design. Regular sealing and repairs can extend the lifespan of the surface, ensuring it remains functional and visually appealing for years.
Professional Tar and Chip installations typically take between one to three days, depending on the project size and weather conditions.
The process involves grading and preparing the base, applying hot asphalt binder, spreading the aggregate layer, and compacting the surface for durability.
