Hiring a Paving Subcontractor? Ask These 5 Questions First

When you’re bidding or managing a large construction project, every subcontractor matters; but especially the ones handling the final surface. Asphalt paving may come at the end of the build, but if it’s done poorly or delayed, the whole job suffers.

So how do you make sure your paving subcontractor is up to the task?

Here are 5 key questions to ask before you hire AND how The Paving Group checks every box!

1. Can You Handle the Full Scope?

Not every paving company has the crew size, equipment, or experience to handle large-scale work. Whether you’re building a subdivision, shopping center, or industrial site, you need a subcontractor who can scale to meet the demand.

✅ The Paving Group specializes in high-volume, large-scope projects. From grading to final striping, we handle every inch.

2. How Quickly Can You Provide a Bid?

Slow or incomplete bids can cost you time, and even the job! You need subcontractors who understand how the bidding process works and can turn around accurate numbers without holding you up.

✅ We respond fast with detailed bids, so you can stay on schedule and submit your proposals with confidence.

3. What’s Your Communication Like Once the Job Starts?

You don’t want to chase down updates or play guessing games with a subcontractor. Reliable, proactive communication can make all the difference when timelines shift or weather causes delays.

✅ Our team coordinates directly with site managers and superintendents and we stay in touch every step of the way.

4. Are You Licensed, Insured, and Familiar with Local Codes?

This sounds basic, but you’d be surprised how often it’s overlooked. Proper credentials and a clear safety culture are non-negotiable on any site.

✅ We’re fully licensed, insured, and experienced with local standards for commercial and residential paving throughout Georgia.

5. Can You Help Us Stay on Budget Without Sacrificing Quality?

The lowest price isn’t always the best deal, but you do need competitive pricing from a subcontractor who can deliver professional results without running up unnecessary costs.

✅ The Paving Group offers professional, high-quality work at a price point that helps contractors stay competitive.
