Tar & Chip Surfacing Contractors in Surrey

Tar and chip surfacing combines a layer of hot bitumen with clean stone chippings to create a durable, textured surface. Also known as chip seal, it’s a versatile and cost-effective solution for a variety of properties.

The process involves spraying a high-quality K170 bitumen onto a stable base before carefully spreading selected stone chippings over the surface. The K170 bitumen provides excellent adhesion, ensuring the stone binds effectively to the surface for a long-lasting finish. The surface is then compacted with a roller to create a firm, gravel-like texture.

Once the surface has cooled, any loose stones are swept away, leaving a strong, textured surface with excellent grip. This surfacing method is ideal for both residential and commercial projects, from driveways and patios to rural roads and commercial forecourts. As experienced tar and chip contractors in Surrey, we ensure every installation is carried out using proven materials and techniques to deliver reliable, high-quality results.

What are the Benefits of Tar & Chip Surfacing

Tar and chip surfacing offers a range of advantages that make it an excellent choice for both residential and commercial properties:

• Durable and Long-Lasting: The combination of bitumen and stone creates a surface that resists cracking, weathering, and wear, ensuring a finish that stands the test of time.
• Cost-Effective: Tar and chip surfacing provides a high-quality, attractive finish at a lower cost than traditional asphalt or block paving.
• Excellent Grip and Safety: The textured surface delivers superior traction for vehicles and pedestrians, reducing the risk of slips and skidding.
• Low Maintenance:  Minor imperfections are naturally hidden by the textured finish, and simple cleaning or occasional resealing keeps the surface looking its best.
• Aesthetic Appeal: Available in a variety of stone colours, our Surrey tar and chip surfacing can be customised to suit your property, creating a natural, rustic, or decorative look.

Whether you need a new driveway, a resurfaced patio, or a reliable surfacing solution for a rural road or a commercial area, tar and chip offers the perfect combination of durability, safety, and visual appeal.
