Chip seal is a cost-effective and durable pavement surface treatment that combines hot liquid asphalt with a layer of crushed stone to create a textured, protective surface. Ideal for driveways, private roads, and rural highways, chip seal provides excellent traction, weather resistance, and a rustic appearance. It helps seal small cracks, prevents water penetration, and extends the life of existing pavement—all at a lower cost than traditional asphalt paving. This method is perfect for property owners looking for a long-lasting solution that balances performance and affordability.
