πŸ› οΈ WHAT IS TAR & CHIP PAVING?

Tar and chip (also called chip seal) is a paving method that combines hot liquid asphalt with stone aggregate to create a textured, durable surface.

Instead of a smooth blacktop, you get:

  • A natural stone finish

  • Excellent traction

  • A surface that holds up well on long driveways and rural roads

πŸ‘‰ This makes it ideal for properties in and around Munford where function and cost matter more than a glossy finish.
