Tar and Chip Surface Dressing in Falkirk

Farm access and industrial yards around Falkirk and Grangemouth

Around Falkirk, Grangemouth, Larbert and Denny we lay hot tar and chip surface dressing, also known as hot bitumen bonded aggregate. It suits farm lanes and steadings on the edge of town, estate roads toward Bonnybridge and Polmont, large private driveways, warehouse yards, and car parks for businesses and visitor attractions. Our state-of-the-art combi two-in-one tar and chip units spray the hot bitumen and roll the chips in within seconds, giving better bonding and a smoother, harder-wearing finish. Bitumen armour seal over road planings or tired tarmac gives a black sealed finish on bigger tracks and yards. We cover everything from driveways up to major road surfacing projects, car parks and roads. Call 0330 223 8350.

Work is carried out with state-of-the-art combi two-in-one tar and chip machines: hot bitumen goes down first and the aggregate is rolled into it seconds later. Better bonding and binding give a smoother, longer-lasting finish.

Refreshing an existing drive

A single coat of tar and chip over a tired but sound tarmac driveway gives it a new stone finish and seals the cracks – we've done this in Falkirk. It costs much less than digging out and relaying.

Farm lanes on the higher ground

The moorland farms around Slamannan and Avonbridge have long lanes that take a beating. A two-coat dressing gives a sealed, grippy, hard-wearing surface.

Commercial yards

For factories and depots around Grangemouth and Falkirk, tarmac is usually the better choice – see our factory and car park pages. Tired tarmac yards can also be rejuvenated with our bitumen armour seal.

Equestrian yards and smallholdings

Around Falkirk there are many stables, livery yards and smallholdings with rough access tracks. A two-coat tar and chip dressing over a prepared planings base turns a potholed track into a sealed lane that's kinder to horses' hooves than loose stone.

Getting a quote

We'll visit, measure up, explain whether a single or double coat is right and give you a written price. If parts of the road need hot tarmac repairs or new edges first, we'll include those so there are no surprises. Tell us if the road is shared with neighbours or used by delivery lorries, as that affects the chip size and binder we recommend.
