Chip Seal Paving with Rustic Charm and Rugged Durability
Affordable surface protection for rural roads, lanes, and large properties.
Professional Chip Seal Installation
Chip seal, also known as tar and chip, is a durable and attractive surfacing option especially well suited to rural properties across Alberta. At Hansen Paving Ltd, we provide professional chip seal applications throughout Alberta for clients seeking a cost-effective surface that resists weather, wear, and ageing. This process involves applying hot liquid asphalt to a properly prepared base, followed by a layer of crushed aggregate that is compacted to create a textured, skid-resistant finish.
Our chip seal surfaces offer excellent grip, making them ideal for vehicle and foot traffic in Alberta’s varying conditions. With a charming, country-style appearance, chip seal is well suited to farm roads, long driveways, acreage lanes, and rural access routes. Hansen Paving Ltd customises every chip seal project to match your property’s usage, landscape, and long-term performance needs.
Advantages of Chip Seal:
-
Cost-effective vs. full asphalt overlays
-
Excellent traction in wet and icy conditions
-
Visually rustic and blends with natural surroundings
-
Requires less maintenance than gravel roads
-
Can be layered over existing pavement
Our Application Method
After preparing and grading the base, Hansen Paving Ltd applies a coat of hot liquid asphalt using specialised distributor equipment across all of Alberta. Crushed stone chips are then evenly spread over the surface and embedded into the asphalt using heavy rollers. Once cured, any loose stone is swept away, leaving a clean, bonded, and long-lasting finish suitable for Alberta conditions.
