"With the cost of materials going up, preventive maintenance has saved us a lot of money, given our roads a lot longer life, and they look like brand new roads, when we’re done with this maintenance thatGee Asphalt does for us.I wanted to do something different, rather than to chip seal in town. Everybody complained, but when we did Lafayette Rd. which is a long road, you go out and get your car washed, and as you come home you’re driving on a chip seal road, it’s dirty, dusty, like out in the country. When I took office, I wanted to find something different and I found Gee Asphalt and saw one of their projects that they had done, and after talking with the gentleman that owns it, it gave us a short window to get it repaired, get it covered, it was a no-brainer. As far as preventive maintenance on the roads, if you do not maintain your roads, in the community, you’re going to be paying to replace them. I was very impressed. The coating is not justa quick coating, it’s a good thick cover, the crack sealing, as far as I’m concerned, is the highest quality, you just don’t feel a crack, they make sure it’s sealed all the way.I am very impressed with what they’ve done. People went into work in the morning, they came back to a wholenew road."
