Durable Chip Seal Paving
for Rural Properties

If you’re looking for an affordable, low-maintenance alternative to asphalt, chip seal in Fredericksburg, TX and serving the surrounding Austin area, might be the perfect fit. Chip seal combines a base layer of hot asphalt emulsion with a layer of crushed stone, providing a textured, slip-resistant surface that’s ideal for rural roads, ranch driveways, and private access lanes.

We often recommend chip seal for:

  • Long country driveways
  • Low-traffic roads and access paths
  • Ranch roads and easements
  • Budget-conscious property upgrades

Not only does chip seal look right at home in the Texas Hill Country with its more natural, rustic aesthetic — it also performs exceptionally well on our local soil. It offers great skid resistance, resists cracking, and holds up under light to moderate traffic.

The process is efficient, the cost is lower than traditional asphalt, and the finished product can last for many years with minimal maintenance. For those who want solid performance without the higher price tag, chip seal is a dependable choice.

Seal Coating
in Fredericksburg, TX and serving the surrounding Austin area

Asphalt surfaces don’t last forever — but with proper care, they can serve you well for decades. One of the best ways to protect your investment is with routine seal coating in Fredericksburg, TX and serving the surrounding Austin area. This process involves applying a protective sealant to the surface of your asphalt, creating a barrier against water, UV rays, oil stains, and everyday wear.

Seal coating is ideal for:

  • Residential driveways
  • Private roads
  • Parking pads and small commercial lots

We recommend seal coating every 2–3 years, depending on traffic and weather exposure. It helps prevent cracks and early deterioration, keeps your surface looking fresh, and extends the overall life of your pavement. It’s also a cost-effective way to restore faded asphalt and maintain that deep black finish.

Our seal coating service is fast, effective, and handled by professionals who take the time to prep your surface properly and apply the right materials for long-term protection.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know whether I need asphalt or chip seal?

It depends on your property’s traffic volume, budget, and appearance preferences. Asphalt is ideal for smoother finishes and heavier traffic, while chip seal is more affordable and great for rural applications. We’ll help you choose the right option.

How long does it take to install a new driveway?

Most residential driveway installations take 1–2 days, depending on size and site preparation needs. We’ll provide a clear timeline before we begin.

Can you repair an old driveway instead of replacing it?

Absolutely. We offer resurfacing, crack filling, and patching services that can restore older driveways without a full replacement.

When is the best time to seal coat my driveway?

Spring and early fall are ideal, when the weather is warm and dry. Seal coating should be avoided during rainy or extremely hot conditions.

Do you serve areas outside Fredericksburg?

Yes. We serve Gillespie County and surrounding areas including Harper, Stonewall, Johnson City, and more.
