Groundwork Knowledge
Decades of experience assessing bases, levels, drainage and access before surfacing begins.
Specialist chip & tar surfacing backed by a second-generation family groundwork business with more than 40 years of industry experience across County Waterford.
Waterford Chip & Tar Contractors is the specialist chip & tar arm of an established family groundwork business serving homes, farms and commercial properties throughout County Waterford.
Our experience goes beyond the finished surface. Good chip & tar work depends on the condition of the base, levels, drainage, edges and how the area will be used. That is why every job begins with the ground beneath the surface.
From residential entrances and long country lanes to farm access, private roads, yards and commercial areas, we focus on practical preparation, appropriate materials and a clean, consistent finish.

A long-lasting result starts with correct preparation. Our approach considers the whole job, not only the final layer.

The appearance of a surface matters, but its performance starts below the stone. We assess the existing area and recommend preparation appropriate to the intended traffic and site conditions.

Required groundwork and base preparation are completed before surfacing.
Bituminous binder and selected stone chippings are applied to the prepared area.
The surface is rolled and finished to create a neat, textured appearance.

Chip & tar can be an attractive choice where a textured stone finish suits the character of the property, particularly on rural homes, long approaches and larger areas.
