Tar and chip installation work typically involves the application of a layer of liquid asphalt or tar followed by the spreading of small aggregate stones or chips to create a durable, textured surface for driveways, roads, or parking areas. The process includes preparing the existing surface, applying the tar, and evenly distributing the chips, which are then pressed into the tar to ensure adhesion. When evaluating requests, important details include the size and condition of the area to be covered, the type and quality of materials to be used, the desired surface texture, and any specific site conditions such as drainage or existing surface stability. Clarifying these details helps ensure accurate estimates of scope, materials, and labor requirements.
