Tar-and-Chip Driveway Installation

Upgrade Your Home's Curb Appeal with a Tar-and-Chip Driveway in the Wilmington, DE Area

Tar-and-chip driveways are attractive and have been used for over 100 years to resurface driveways. Tar and chip are virtually maintenance-free. They are less expensive than asphalt and are available in many colors and shades of stones.

STEP 1

Tar and chip can be applied right over an existing base, such as blacktop, concrete or gravel.

STEP 2

First, a 1/4-inch layer of hot liquid asphalt (tar) is applied on top of the base. This liquid binds the base to the stone chips and acts as a water seal.

STEP 3

A layer of loose stone is then spread over the hot tar and raked to cover.

STEP 4

The stones are embedded into the tar with a rolling machine.
