What we do on a tar and chip driveway

Tar and chip, also called surface dressing, is a layer of bitumen sprayed onto a prepared base and immediately covered with stone chippings, which are rolled in so the surface looks like gravel but behaves like a bound drive.

Chippings spread straight onto the binder
Rolled to bed the stones in
Loose surplus chippings swept up after a few days
