Tar and Chip Installation
Application Process

Applying tar and spreading chips in the correct sequence and thickness is essential for a high-quality finish.

  • - Surface Preparation - Ensure the existing surface is clean, dry, and free of debris before installation.
  • - Material Application - Spread the tar evenly over the surface to create a strong adhesive base.
  • - Chipping Process - Carefully lay the chipped stones into the tar while it is still hot or tacky.
  • - Compaction - Use a roller or tamper to firmly press the chips into the tar for durability.
  • - Curing Time - Allow the surface to set and cure properly before opening to traffic.

Tar and chip installation work typically involves applying a layer of hot liquid asphalt or tar to a prepared surface, followed by the spreading of a layer of chipped stone or gravel on top. The process often includes surface preparation, such as grading and cleaning, to ensure proper adhesion, and may involve setting and compaction to create a durable, textured surface. When evaluating requests for tar and chip work, important details include the size and condition of the area to be covered, the type and thickness of materials desired, access considerations, and any specific surface requirements or existing surface conditions that could affect the installation process.
