Chip Seal / Tar & Chip Glenwood – Built Tough for Georgia Weather
When your pavement shows signs of wear, chip seal stops the damage before it spreads. Peach State Paving’s crews serve Glenwood with proven tar and chip techniques that rebuild surface integrity fast—no long cure times, no extended closures. Just a tough, skid-resistant surface built to last.
Chip Seal Installation
Chip seal is engineered for durability. The process fuses hot bituminous liquid into the existing pavement, then locks stone aggregate into place to form a dense, weather-resistant surface layer. The result withstands heavy rain, UV degradation, and moderate traffic for years at a stretch.
Tar & Chip Driveways
Tar and chip’s embedded stone finish doesn’t just look good—it performs. Homeowners around Glenwood choose tar and chip for the natural aesthetic, but they stay with it because the surface holds up through Georgia summers and winters without chipping, cracking, or fading the way standard asphalt can.
Chip Seal Surface Renewal
Before you call for a full replacement, let us assess your Glenwood driveway or road. If the subbase is intact, chip seal can add 7–10 years of life with a single application—sealing surface cracks, improving traction, and preventing deeper structural damage at a fraction of repaving cost.
Private Road Chip Sealing
Perfect for neighborhoods, farms, and commercial properties, our chip seal services create smooth, low-maintenance private roads. This process reduces dust, improves appearance, and strengthens the surface for long-term use.

Chip Seal (Tar & Chip) Process
Chip seal is a cost-effective paving solution that combines liquid asphalt (chip oil) with carefully selected stone to create a durable, textured surface. It’s ideal for driveways, private roads, and rural properties, offering a natural look with long-lasting protection.
- Surface Preparation - Every project begins with a properly prepared surface. We clean the area thoroughly, removing dirt, dust, and loose debris to ensure strong adhesion. Any damaged areas are patched to create a solid base.
- Application of Chip Oil - Next, a hot liquid asphalt emulsion (commonly referred to as chip oil) is evenly sprayed across the surface. This acts as the binding agent that holds the stone in place and seals the pavement from water intrusion.
- First Stone Layer – #7 Stone Immediately after the oil is applied, we spread #7 stone (approximately 3/8” in size). This larger aggregate forms the primary structural layer, providing strength, traction, and durability.
- Rolling and Compaction - The surface is then compacted using pneumatic rollers. This step presses the #7 stone firmly into the oil, ensuring proper embedment and long-term performance.
Optional Double Chip Upgrade
For a smoother, tighter finish, we offer a double chip seal system:
- Second Application of Chip Oil A lighter coat of asphalt emulsion is applied over the first layer to prepare for the final finish.
- Second Stone Layer – #89 Stone We then apply #89 stone (a smaller, finer aggregate around 1/4” or less). This layer fills the gaps between the larger #7 stone, creating a more compact and refined surface.
- Final Rolling and Finishing The surface is rolled again to lock in the #89 stone. After curing, any loose aggregate is swept away, leaving a clean, uniform finish
Why We Use #7 and #89 Stone:
- #7 Stone: Provides the foundation, strength, and skid resistance
- #89 Stone: Fills voids, improves durability, and creates a smoother appearance
The Result - The finished surface delivers a rugged, attractive look with excellent traction and weather resistance. Chip seal is a smart alternative to traditional asphalt, offering lower cost, faster installation, and reliable performance for years to come.
