Tar and Chip Driveways Wisbech, Cambridgeshire
Tar and chip is a popular surface solution for many surfaces including patios, car parks and driveways. Frequently used throughout Wisbech, tar and chip creates a high-impact surface which can withstand a high volume of traffic and requires little maintenance or upkeep.
At Driveline Surfacing we do not rely on any subcontractors – we complete every job ourselves to ensure work is completed to the highest standard. Alongside this, we make sure the installation process is quick and efficient as we own and operate all of our equipment and machinery.
Due to this, most of our tar and chip surface installations can be completed within one day, depending on the size of the area being laid. The simple installation process makes this type of surface extremely cost-effective to install, even for large areas such as car parks. You don’t have to worry about maintenance or cleaning for these surfaces, all they will require is a sweep and a pressure washing once a year to keep it looking fresh and clear of moss. If your surface needs some restoration after a few years it can be treated with a surface dressing.
One of the many benefits of tar and chip over other surfaces such as tarmac and concrete is its ability to provide traction during wet or icy weather. Before we install any surfaces we will ensure that any drainage systems are sorted and can still be accessed post-installation.

How Do We Install Tar & Chip?
One of our expert team members will provide you with a no-obligation quote based on your needs, the size of the area, the drainage requirements and the suitability of the current surface. Before installation, we will look at your pre-existing surface to see whether any maintenance or repair work needs to be completed prior to your new surface being laid.
First in the process is the installation of a gravel sub-layer. This provides the structural base for your new tar and chip surface. On top of this base, a thick layer of hot bitumen is poured and a subsequent layer of coloured aggregate is applied over the top. This aggregate is firmly pressed into the bitumen layer to ensure a high adhesion and maximum coverage.
It’s this top layer of aggregate that you can customise to give the area surrounding your property instant kerb appeal. We stock over 40 different aggregate combinations to truly personalise your property. We can even match with existing surfaces to keep in theme with the surrounding area and feel of the Wisbech area.
