Chip sealing is a natural looking pavement and an economical surface treatment designed to protect and prolong the life of roads, driveways and parking lots. To best describe this, chip sealing is a combination of hot liquid asphalt cement, liquid A/C (or hot tar if you prefer) as a binder and gravel as the main structural component. Finally, a roller is used to embed the stone into the tar.

Asphalt is a common pavement known for its durability and resilience. Because of its strength, most state and federal governments highly prefer asphalt pavement for its reliability and lasting life.
Once the designing, planning and clearing of the new road has been completed, the soil is compacted and covered with crushed rock. The asphalt aggregate is then laid and compacted.

Seal Coating is the process of applying a protective coating to asphalt-based pavements, providing a layer of protection against the elements as well as limited anti-skid properties.
Before a seal coat can be applied, first the surface and foundation must be prepared, cracks and pot holes must be filled, oil spots must be cleaned. Next, one to two coats of seal coating is applied to create a lasting seal. Once the seal has dried for at least 12 hours, the surface can be restriped before it’s ready for traffic.
