Why you should be careful when searching and selecting an asphalt driveway repair contractor?

Did you know asphalt driveway repair and sealing is one of the most fraudulent industries in the country? Asphalt repair scams happen everywhere in the country, even in Lake Charles.

Sadly, there is zero regulation of asphalt driveway repair and sealing services. In fact, more people are taken advantage of by inexperienced and unethical driveway repair and sealing contractors than just about any other home maintenance service.

Regrettably, most people don't realize it until it's too late, which is the worst part!

Why?

Think about it… asphalt driveway repair and sealing is not ridiculously expensive. For the most part, services like minor patching and crack sealing aren’t either.

But to get into the asphalt repair business, there’s very little specialized knowledge or a substantial up-front investment required. Particularly if the contractor is completing the work by hand or renting the equipment.

All you need is a pickup, a 55-gallon drum or a 275-gallon tote, some hand tools, and materials to start an asphalt driveway repair and sealing business.

Now, that’s not meant to demean the good, honest and hardworking driveway repair contractors out there. Some very hard working folks in the business strive to produce excellent quality driveway repair services.

New upstarting contractors who are just starting in the business sometimes need to begin with drums or even totes to store their sealer. That doesn't necessarily make them wrong or dishonest.

However, to protect themselves, a person still must do their due diligence when hiring an asphalt driveway repair or asphalt driveway sealing company.

Here’s why:

Some contractors, who have no business being in the asphalt business, will bid jobs very low just to outbid the good, honest contractors who run their businesses above board.

That's easy to do when you're not carrying general liability insurance or workers compensation insurance. It's also easy to do when you're willing to cut your products below manufacturers specifications to reduce costs and increase profits.

But the problem really arises if these contractors get awarded the job. They always fall way short on quality.

How do they do it?

We get it. These low prices are tempting. We all want to save money right? We all love a great deal. But when it comes to asphalt driveway repair and driveway sealing, the long term effects of poor quality work using substandard materials can actually work against us instead. They can be damaging to a driveway rather than beneficial.

The end result of poor driveway repair and driveway sealing can end up costing much more in the long run. It has the potential of costing hundreds, if not thousands of dollars to fix these mistakes.

Worse yet, work performed so poorly that you have to hire asphalt paving contractors to come in and completely redo the driveway just to make it look right and bring the value of your home back up.

A picture of an asphalt driveway that was sealed much too frequently

Another picture of an asphalt driveway that was over sealed

This asphalt driveway was sealed far too frequently and wound up needing to be removed and replaced to be adequately repaired.

The homeowner used the same driveway repair contractor year after year and rather than honestly and professionally consulting the homeowner, helping them to protect their investment, this contractor just continued getting paid to seal the driveway year after year when they knew it didn’t need it. The homeowner just called him every year and said “Seal my driveway,” and the contractor didn’t argue. He just showed up and did the work. That's poor business. That's dishonest.

Imagine paying hundreds of dollars to have your asphalt driveway sealed every year, or even every couple of years, thinking you’re protecting it and extending the life of it, only to find out that instead, it was really doing the exact opposite and speeding up the deterioration process? What a disservice that is, isn’t it?

Honesty And Experience Can Make The Difference

We receive hundreds of questions and complaints from homeowners from all over the country about unethical asphalt driveway repair and sealing companies who do these very same things. We see the results of unethical driveway repair advice and over sealing just like this, day after day.

Unfortunately, the same problems can arise with inexperienced contractors as well. While they may have good intentions, they can cause more headaches and wasted money trying to fix their mistakes. Ultimately, it just ends up costing us much more money in the long run. We’ve even seen instances where a driveway had to be removed and replaced at only 10 years old just because it was over sealed.

Moreover, sealing the asphalt may make the driveway look good and even help with melting snow in the winter, it’s true intentions are to extend the life of your asphalt driveway and spread the replacement costs out over 20 to 30 years.

Putting too much trust in an inexperienced contractor is just not worth it. Worse is, making the mistake of hiring an asphalt driveway repair contractor or driveway sealing company that ends up just ripping us off.

Trusting Just Any Company To Repair & Seal Your Asphalt Driveway Is Just Not Worth The Risk

Ask yourself these questions?

• How can a person be positive a driveway repair company they're about to hire has adequate experience?
• Rather than giving us the cold hard facts, how can a person be sure a contractor is not misleading us and merely telling us what we want to hear?
• Has the contractor ripped off other homeowners in the past?
• What’s the best avenue to be sure they’re adequately licensed?
• What is the best resource to get confirmation that a contractor is insured while they’re on the job?
• How much does proper driveway repair in Bullhead City actually cost?

These are all questions we should ask, but really have no way of knowing how or where to begin doing such research. To do such extensive background verification on a company can require a vast amount of time, money and resources.

Nevertheless, with little or no knowledge of asphalt driveway repair and sealing services, there’s just no guarantee that the job will turn out right. Especially if you don’t know what you’re looking for exactly.
