OIL AND CHIP PAVING SERVICES
Oil and chip, also known as chip seal, is a smart and budget-friendly paving option for homeowners who want the strength of asphalt with a more natural, textured appearance. It works especially well for longer driveways and rural homes where cost and traction matter most. The process uses a hot layer of liquid asphalt topped with stone chips, then pressed and packed to create a solid, weather-ready surface.
Residential oil and chip driveways work well for:
-
Long or winding driveways where standard asphalt may cost too much
-
Country homes or farms that want a rugged, stone-covered look
-
Driveways that need more grip in rain or snow
-
Homeowners looking for low-maintenance and lower-cost surfacing
The Road Doctor installs chip seal with care and skill, giving you lasting results built to hold up for years.
