CHIP SEAL
WHAT IS CHIP SEAL?
Chip Seal is a process of applying oil and rock materials to the existing earth or a prepared base. Chip Seal makes a suitable surface for light traffic use. Chip Seal is often chosen as a less expensive alternative to asphalt paving and can also be used for dust control.
HOW LONG DOES CHIP SEAL LAST?
Chip seal lasts between 5-7 years with little maintenance necessary.
HOW DO YOU MAINTAIN A CHIP SEAL DRIVEWAY?
There really isn’t any consistent maintenance that needs to be done on chip seal driveways. Asphalt and concrete start to crack and need to be sealed regularly. Chip seal, on the other hand, doesn’t need to be sealed. However, it can be damaged if anything heavy is dragged over it. For example, snow plows are a common culprit. As long as you’re mindful while your shoveling or plowing, it isn’t too difficult to avoid scraping.
HOW MUCH DOES CHIP SEAL COST?
Chip seal driveways are a cheaper alternative to asphalt. It’s a little more expensive than gravel, but gravel isn’t nearly as smooth or pleasant to look at. Contact us to find out if Chip Seal is right for you.
