Chip Seal

Benefits of Chip Seal for Roadways

Serving Kansas and Oklahoma

Chip seal is a cost-effective, long-lasting option for roadways. Water can seep into traditional asphalt, softening the base and leading to cracks and potholes. Chip seal helps prevent water and moisture from penetrating the structure, which helps reduce maintenance costs.

Circle C Paving specialists spray a thin layer of asphalt, apply aggregate, and compact the surface. A chip seal application helps promote driver safety thanks to its skid-resistant finish and anti-glare surface.

It can be applied over most existing surfaces, including gravel and unsealed asphalt, though ruts and cracks should be patched before the chip seal process. The chip seal process can also be used to fill and seal cracks in the existing pavement, costs up to 20% less than repaving, and can be done with minimal traffic interruption.
