The Problems with Traditional Driveways
Standard asphalt and concrete driveways, though commonly used, are prone to cracking, potholes, and fading over time.
These issues not only affect the appearance of the driveway but also result in costly repairs, especially in areas like Newtown, CT, where harsh weather accelerates deterioration.
The high maintenance demands of traditional driveways can become a hassle for homeowners. Without proactive care or alternatives like a chip seal driveway in Newtown, CT, driveways tend to lose their durability and curb appeal much more quickly.

CHIP SEALING OPTIONS
NEW CONSTRUCTION:
Our most durable solution
Once we confirm that the sub-base is properly prepared, we begin by fine grading and compacting the area to achieve the correct pitch. A 2-inch layer of 3/4-inch clean stone is laid down to form a stable base for the surface treatment.
We then apply hot liquid asphalt, followed by a 1/2-inch or 3/8-inch layer of clean stone. A second coat of hot asphalt is added, and topped with a final stone layer. Customers can choose a finish stone that enhances their property’s overall look. The entire surface is compacted to form a tough, long-lasting driveway in Newtown, CT.
SINGLE CHIP:
Choose chip seal to refresh an existing chip stone surface or protect your investment with a durable armor coat over new asphalt in Newtown, CT.
A single chip seal is an ideal solution for extending the lifespan of your current pavement. The process begins with an even application of liquid asphalt, applied by a specialized distributor on the prepared surface. Fine or coarse aggregates, typically 1/4″ or 3/8″ chip stone, are then precisely applied, customized to meet your specific needs.
Our computer-controlled stone spreaders and asphalt distributors guarantee a uniform, consistent application from edge to edge at the exact rate required. After applying the liquid asphalt and stone, a pneumatic-tired roller embeds the stone into the asphalt emulsion, creating a smooth, long-lasting finish.
DOUBLE CHIP ARMOR COAT:
A great option for applying an armor coat to aging asphalt or gravel surfaces in Newtown, CT.
For a double chip seal, we begin by spraying liquid asphalt emulsion onto the surface using an asphalt distributor, then spreading 3/8″ stone into the asphalt. A steel drum roller is used to press the 3/8″ stones into the asphalt, preparing the surface for the final layer of oil and stone.
Next, a second coat of asphalt is applied, followed by 1/4″ stone spread over the fresh asphalt. The surface is then rolled with a rubber-tired roller, embedding the smaller stones into the gaps of the 3/8″ layer, resulting in a smooth, durable finish. Using a combination of 3/8″ and 1/4″ stones reduces the rough texture often associated with traditional chip seal surfaces.
