About KDG Surfacing
If you are looking for a material that can stand up to a lot of daily wear and tear, then tar and chip is perfect for you. Not only is it hard-wearing and provides good traction, it is also 100% weatherproof. The latter is nothing short of essential here in the UK! Tar and Chip is great value for money too, which has made it popular with those working with smaller budgets as well as larger ones. Our prices are some of the most competitive in Hertfordshire too, giving you even more for your money. Durable, great value – what’s not to love about tar and chip?
We always begin by laying the materials on a concrete or tarmac base – which one you choose will depend on your budget, property, and personal preference. We then apply a tar and chip finish to that base, press-rolling to ensure a smooth finish. Tar and chip has a natural, uniform look when dry, which makes it a versatile choice that will perfectly suit a variety of properties in Hertfordshire.

Why choose KDG Surfacing?

Worried about the installation of your tar and chip driveway preventing normal access to your home or business premises? Don’t worry – we are able to work to short turnaround times. Although we are capable of working at speed, that doesn’t mean that we cut corners at any stage. Our tar and chip contractors use qualified tradespeople at every stage, and we can guarantee only the highest quality materials will be used.
As well as specialising in tar and chip, we also carry out something called surface dressing. Not familiar with this process? It begins with us applying a hot layer of binder to the chosen area. We will then cover it with the aggregate of your choice. There are plenty of options available, and we will point you in the direction of the one that is most suitable for you and your property. Surface dressing can be applied over tar and chip, extending its lifespan, and allowing you to really get the most out of your driveway.

Frequently Asked Questions
Below are some of the frequently asked questions we often receive from our customers. We’ve provided clear answers to help you better understand our surfacing materials, installation processes, and how to maintain a long-lasting finish.
In certain Hertfordshire areas, especially within conservation zones or near historic homes, there may be guidelines on surface appearance, colour and texture. We can ensure the tar-and-chip finish meets local planning expectations (e.g., discreet aggregate colours, low-gloss binder) for those locations.
Tree root intrusion, leaves, moss and shade can affect surface lifespan. When installing a tar-and-chip driveway in a treed Hertfordshire setting, we account for root exclusion zones, ensure sufficient sunlight/ventilation, and pick chip aggregates resistant to moss or lichen growth to maintain appearance and safety.
It’s entirely possible to extend a tar-and-chip driveway later, but we must plan the joint area correctly, match chip type and binder, and ensure the new section bonds properly with the older one. We maintain consistency in finish and structural design when adapting drives in Hertfordshire.
