Complete asphalt replacement

I recently had the pleasure of working with Black Tar Construction for a complete asphalt replacement of our large commercial parking lot. We manage several retail spaces, and this lot had seen better dayscracks, potholes, and major drainage problems had been causing issues for both our tenants and customers. After researching several companies, we decided to go with Black Tar based on their competitive pricing and solid reputation. From the first meeting, their professionalism was apparent. They provided a detailed breakdown of what needed to be done, including base repairs, fixing the drainage, and repaving. The scope of work was extensive, and I was concerned about potential disruptions to our tenants. However, Black Tar worked around our schedule, even coordinating with the tenants to minimize any inconvenience.

High-quality Paving Job

We hired Black Tar Construction to repave our driveway, and I cant say enough good things about the experience. Our old driveway was over 20 years old, cracked, and had a dip near the garage where water would pool every time it rained. From the first consultation, Black Tars team was professional and thorough. They didnt just offer a quick quote but took the time to evaluate the grading and drainage issues, explaining what needed to be done to fix the problem for the long term. The project was scheduled for mid-August, and true to their word, they arrived on time, ready to work. The crew was efficient and organized, removing the old asphalt and preparing the base within a few hours. What really impressed me was the care they took with the grading. They made sure the slope was perfect, so we wouldnt have any more issues with water pooling by the garage. Once the new asphalt was laid, it looked amazing! Smooth, even, and the edges were sharp and clean. They even took the extra step of ensuring the transitions between the driveway and the sidewalk were seamless. Weve had several neighbors stop by to ask who did the work because the difference is night and day. Its been a few months now, and even after a heavy rain, theres no water pooling. I couldnt be happier with the results, and I highly recommend Black Tar Construction for anyone needing a high-quality asphalt paving job.

Great price and great quality

Great price and great quality. They're not the cheapest in town but we were looking for the best bang for our buck back in 2019 and Black Tar came highly recommended. They were farily price compared to the other three quotes we received, but the professionalism and attention to detail in the quotation process is what sold us. Choosing Black Tar was also influenced by their lifetime warranty and well-known reputation. When we noticed a small crack, their team's quick response was commendable. They addressed the issue under warranty promptly, showing their commitment to customer satisfaction. This level of attention and professionalism from Kenny and the team reassures us that we made the right choice in 2019. We're thankful for their dedication to maintaining high standards.

Outstanding service

The outstanding job Ramy and the Black Tar crew did on our driveway left us thoroughly impressed. Their dedication to quality was evident from our first interaction to the completion of our stunning driveway and interlock walkway. While a slight rescheduling was a minor hiccup, the team's professionalism made the process smooth. Their approachability and efficiency have made us not just satisfied customers but also advocates for their services. We encourage anyone seeking a dependable paving team to consider them first.

Best Quality

Opting for Black Tar was a decision influenced not only by their solid reputation but also by personal touches that made our experience special. Max allowing my kids to take photos with the machinery was a highlight, showcasing their thoughtfulness. Their immediate response to our queries and the seamless communication made the project effortless. The quality of the finished driveway was exactly what we expected, which is what we were told about by our neighbor. We wholeheartedly trust Black Tar and will recommend them to our friends for their paving needs. Thanks again Max!
