Chip sealcoating is a great option for adding a tough new wear surface that also adds skid resistance. This process can triple the life of your asphalt. The surface combines a durable layer of hot oil with loose rock (chips). It’s all rolled into place for years of reliable use!
The steps
- Patching and crack sealing. This should be done at least a week ahead of the chip sealing process to allow for complete curing of the crack seal or patch materials.
- A thorough cleaning of the surface area so that adhesion is flawless
- Application of hot oil and aggregate materials. We use computerized chip spreaders for accuracy.
- Cleanup of excess chips and loose materials. This happens within a few days after we chip sealcoat if it’s a high traffic area. In low traffic areas, we like to wait a few weeks to allow for full curing before cleanup.
We specialize in chip sealcoating with minimum interruption to your business or traffic flow! Get in touch.
