    The Process

    A process that has been around for hundreds of years, tar and chip surfacing uses all-natural stone and lends itself perfectly to heritage properties and listed buildings. It couldn’t be better fitted to the great county of Norfolk, where we can apply your tar and chip surface to any area that you have in mind. What’s more, it is a cost-effective surfacing technique.

    The choice of finish you have includes a lovely light brown pea shingle, with a natural appearance, or a smart grey granite that looks highly professional. Both can truly transform your area, and you’ll wonder why you didn’t get in touch with us sooner. So many customers tell us how their new surface has made a world of difference to their property.

    Further Information

    While tar bonded surfacing comes under many guises and is also referred to as tar and stone, tar and chippings, tar and granite; we simply call it tar and chip. We’ve applied tar and chip to all types of surface, including at smallholdings, farm roads, commercial driveways, car parks and large areas. Wherever you are in Norfolk, and whatever size job you have in mind, our tar and chip finish can be applied to any type of existing surface.

    For the installation, we firstly ensure that there aren’t any potholes or loose stones, particularly focusing on areas where the existing surface has deteriorated over time. Then follows an application of hot bitumen liquid tar, with either the gold pea shingle or grey granite aggregate going immediately on top of the tar. Perhaps the best part is that, once installed, the maintenance is so low that you won’t need to do a thing yourself.
