At Elite Asphalt, we believe that an informed customer makes the best decision. Choosing a paving contractor isn’t just about finding the lowest price—it’s about getting long-term value. Explore our most common customer questions below.
A: Lowest bids can come at a cost. They may leave out essential components like proper insurance, quality materials, or skilled labor. Paying less upfront could mean spending more later on repairs or premature failure.
A: To protect yourself and your property, make sure your contractor has:
Tip: Look for at least $500,000 per policy. $1–2 million is even better.
A: Yes. Asphalt comes in various grades and may contain different levels of recycled material. Low-grade asphalt wears out faster and may look uneven. Always request high-grade asphalt with minimal recycled content for longer-lasting results.
A: A well-equipped crew typically includes 5–8 workers. Anything smaller may delay your project or reduce quality. Also, confirm that all crew members are covered under Workers’ Compensation.
A: For projects under $10,000, no down payment should be required. Reputable contractors have credit lines with suppliers and don’t need customer deposits. Beware of anyone asking for upfront money—they might be funding other unfinished jobs.
A: Old or poorly maintained machines can break down, delay work, and cause the asphalt to cool before it’s laid—resulting in a poor finish. Always choose a contractor with modern, reliable equipment for optimal results.
A: No. Hand paving can’t match the consistency or finish of machine paving. Modern paving equipment costs over $100,000 for a reason—it ensures quality and efficiency. Avoid anyone claiming hand paving is “just as good.”
A: Definitely. Professionally installed asphalt can last 20+ years with proper care. Choosing a higher-quality installation today can save you from costly repairs or early replacement in the future.
A: Look for these signs of a quality contractor:
Reminder: “You get what you pay for.” Cutting corners today may cost more tomorrow.
