Tar and Chip Paving

Looking for a more natural, rustic, and cost-effective alternative to traditional asphalt? Allrite Paving specializes in high-quality tar and chip paving for driveways and private roads throughout Grundy, LaSalle and Livingston Counties. As experienced paving contractors, we deliver surfaces that combine durability with a classic, textured look.

What is Tar and Chip Paving?

Tar and chip paving, also known as chip seal, involves applying a hot liquid asphalt (tar) layer, then embedding it with stone chips or gravel. This method creates a durable, skid-resistant surface that blends beautifully into natural surroundings. It offers the strength of asphalt but with a more decorative finish and lower cost.

Benefits of Tar and Chip Driveways

  • Affordability: Tar and chip is a cost-effective paving option, typically less expensive than traditional asphalt or concrete.
  • Low maintenance: The stone surface hides small imperfections and doesn’t require frequent sealing.
  • Natural, rustic appearance: The stone finish creates a beautiful, textured look that enhances rural or country properties.
  • Excellent traction: The rough surface provides superior grip for vehicles and reduces slipping in wet or icy conditions.

Our Tar and Chip Paving Process

We begin by properly grading and preparing your base to ensure drainage and long-term stability. Next, we apply a hot asphalt binder layer, followed by an even application of stone chips, which are then rolled into place. Our experienced crew ensures a uniform, durable surface that lasts for years with minimal upkeep.

  • Residential driveways
  • Private roads and lanes
