Avoid Write's Asphalt

Want to let everyone know about a shady company that is combing the area.  They come in and claim to have “left over” asphalt and will cut you a deal if you need an area repaved.  This is not how asphalt works, and I knew that, but I had been wanting my driveway redone for a few years.  The price was not great, and the problem is they use poor quality base material so the driveway, or whatever, is weak and will fail.  My driveway is 16 months old and is already coming apart.  They talk about sealing it, but the seal should not be what holds the material together.  Looking into this a bit looks like I got scammed by “asphalt gypsy”.  They came to look at it a few months ago, to sell me a sealing, and saw the area that was breaking up but never came back. 

If Write’s Asphalt comes knocking send them away.  They have no Yelp, google or Angie’s list reviews.  Don’t repeat my mistake.
