Selecting the Right Paving Contractor
The quality paving installation comes at a premium. We would like to help you in selecting the right paving contractor. At SmartStone, we have seen many paving installations and problems on sites. The installation of paving is a skill and it costs money to do it properly.
There are a few common questions to ask a contractor to assess if you will receive your desired result. The downloadable pdf below guides you in identifying which aspects a contractor should adhere to, to ensure a structurally sound paving installation.
In the document, we have identified 4 types of contractors. Namely, “contractors who comply with international standards of installation for commercial paving” (A), “contractors who comply with international standards of installation for residential paving” (B), “common South African installers” (C), and finally, “opportunistic installers” (D). Listed in the 1st column is a list of questions that one might ask prospective installers to compare them with each other. These questions correspond with the answers you would expect to get from the aforementioned contractors in columns A, B, C, and D.
We trust this will aid you in selecting a contractor that will ensure your installation is of top quality. View the Categories of Contractors pdf document.
