What Is Required For Tar & Chip?

Successful tar and chip installation starts with proper site preparation and a solid foundation. The existing surface or base must be graded, compacted, and ready to support the new material. Applying the asphalt binder and stone at the right time and under suitable weather conditions helps create a strong bond and a finished surface that performs well for years.
