Tar & Chip Coating in Little Rock, AR

Tar & Chip: The Affordable Paving Alternative

Tar and chip paving (also called chip-and-seal or macadam) builds a durable, attractive surface by applying hot liquid asphalt to a graded base and rolling crushed stone into it. The result is a rustic, high-traction finish that costs significantly less than hot-mix asphalt paving — and hides dirt and wear beautifully.

It's the go-to choice for long rural driveways, farm and ranch roads, construction yards, and private lanes across central Arkansas.

• Significantly cheaper than asphalt paving
• Durable, high-traction finish
• Ideal for long rural driveways
• Farm, ranch & access roads

Built on Proper Preparation

A tar and chip surface is only as good as the grade beneath it. We prepare and compact the base, apply asphalt cement at the correct temperature and rate, then embed and roll the stone for a tight, even bond. Done right, a tar and chip surface delivers years of low-maintenance service.
