Description

This happened to my parents on June 24, 2025. A road maintenance construction company pulled up to my parents' home. They are both in their mid 80s. They claimed to have been working nearby on a road repair and had leftover asphalt that they could put on their driveway at a really great deal. He quoted a price per foot, but when finished said they owed him per square foot. My parents were confused because they thought they might have to pay $1,500 for a patch job, using whatever was leftover in their truck. They wound up paving their entire driveway (front and back of the house) and gave them a bill for $64,000, to be paid immediately. My parents felt like they had to pay, which went on to three different credit cards. My parents live off of their pensions and can absolutely not afford this. They never would have agreed to a $64,000 new driveway. They were scared. I drove 1.5 hours up to their home immediately and called the credit cards to refuse payment, and called the local police department. And today I found that someone else has reported this company to the BBB, only their complaint was for a Harrison Asphalt Company, using the same 800-208-0554 phone number. The invoice that they left behind had no other physical/e-mail addresses.
