What is Tar and Chip Paving?

Tar and chip paving, also known as chip seal (or chip and seal) paving or seal chip, is a method of surfacing roads, driveways, and parking lots. The process begins with preparing the existing surface by cleaning it and, if necessary, repairing any cracks or potholes. The workers apply a layer of hot liquid asphalt (tar) to the prepared surface. A gravel base (chip) follows this.

The gravel adheres to the surface of the hot asphalt creating a textured surface. Heavy machinery compacts this mixture, ensuring that the chips embed into the asphalt. This compaction process helps to create a tight bond between the chips and the asphalt. The final result is a durable and weather-resistant textured surface.

One of the advantages of tar and chip paving is it is relatively low maintenance. This fact, combined with its cost effectiveness, make it a great option for country roads, driveways, and parking lots. It is a good choice for these areas.

Cost-Effectiveness:

Great Service!!!! Everyone was extremely professional and courteous, from the owner to all of the employees!!! The work is fabulous, and they were very efficient. It was a fairly sizable project and it was finished in no time flat. I would highly recommend them for your next project!!!!!

BG is finishing up our driveway as I type this review. We are absolutely thrilled. Very professional & very nice people. The total experience from start to finish has been just great. We got 4 estimates, & like BG best. They have totally exceeded expectations. Excellent to work with. Our newly paved driveway looks even better than we were promised.

We had our driveway paved this summer, and we have been very happy with it. So far, no issues, but several compliments on our property -- one of our neighbors got their driveway paved after seeing ours! I would highly recommend B&G or consider them for future projects. Workers were courteous, efficient, and they neat as they cleaned up after the job. Thank you!

BG Paving and Steven Lawrence did a great job on my driveway near Mountain City. They got there quickly and were very professional. Steven was great to work with.

Thought I'd have to hire several contractors over a number of weeks to complete my project. I called BG to quote replacing my asphalt driveway. Turned out that they could remove an old concrete slab, bring in a dozen loads of shale and dirt, change the slope of my property, resurface my parking area, and put in a new beautiful driveway. All for a reasonable price and in 3 1/2 days. They did everything that I asked them to do. I'm very pleased with the results.

Love our new driveway. We are new to Blountville and appreciated the knowledgeable and courteous service we received from BG Paving. From our salesman Steve to the team of men that put in our driveway.

So I needed to get my driveway repair so I tried these guys out and they were worth every penny best experience I ever had thanks again for everything!!!
