Every year, traveling paving crews flood New Jersey claiming to have “leftover asphalt” and promising bargain prices. These contractors are typically unlicensed, uninsured, and transient—operating out of motels and moving on when the work fails.Look for contractors with established local presence, proper licensing, insurance, and references from commercial clients in your area. A legitimate contractor will provide detailed written estimates, explain their process, and offer warranties on materials and workmanship.Ask about their experience with commercial properties similar to yours. Retail centers, industrial facilities, and office complexes all have different requirements, and your contractor should understand these differences and customize their approach accordingly.
