Frequently Asked Questions

HOW DO WE KNOW WE ARE GETTING GOOD WORK AT A GOOD PRICE?

Use our Buyer’s Guide to help you select and hire an asphalt paving company. We didn’t write it...a customer did! You’ll learn how to protect yourself by asking the hard questions that some outfits would rather not answer.

When paving material is laid down, it has to be compacted (steamrolled). That's why, when you are told you are getting 2 1/2 inches, you need to know if that’s before or after it gets squashed down to 1 inch. Ask!

  • Make sure the contractor is local. Local businesses are more accountable;
  • Research the contractor. BBB ratings, Yelp, star ratings and testimonials;
  • Get an estimate. Get everything in writing. Learn what “After Compaction” means;
  • Ask questions. Who is doing the actual paving? Them, or somebody else?
