ASPHALT ANSWERS
a story to tell you, like my grandfa-
ther started this business by selling
this brand of pavers, or rollers or
we started by just fixing machines.
Whatever the story is, it all relates
back to their family and culture for
the love of the asphalt business, it’s
in their DNA. I know some deal-
ership owners that love asphalt as
much as you love your dog. This is
local experience and expertise that
you and your company can count
on every day of your asphalt paver
ownership. The commitment to
a very high performance culture
along with their industry, applica-
tion and market knowledge is sec-
ond to none.
Asphalt dealerships are different in
the way they support you, the cus-
tomer, to be a winner in your mar-
ket place. It’s not just the place you
buy your asphalt paver from, it’s
the life of that unit, they can help
you finance your purchase, start up
training on your new paver, help

you with other asphalt items need-
ed for your success such as lutes,
string line, tools, jumping jacks,
tampers, safety vest, etc. the list can
go on and on here. They’ll have a
knowledgeable parts staff and a ful-
ly stocked parts dept. They’ll have
factory trained service techs with
mobile service if needed. With the
new technology in today’s world
including but not limited to Tier
4F engines, diagnosis and repair
are essential in keeping you up and
running when it’s needed.
Wait there’s more that your local
asphalt dealership can offer, such
as demos when looking at some-
thing new. Rentals when you need
an extra paver for that extra work
you just picked up. Or the high
quality used equipment for adding
to your fleet during the year. Some
offer yearly educational/training
classes for you and your crew on
paver maintenance, application,
safety and markets. Most dealers are
being proactive and offering cus-
tomers uptime kits/maintenance
kits, because time is money. Most
dealerships will offer some type of
a winter paver maintenance and or
rebuild program or service. What
they do have, is “Unmatched Local
Asphalt Support” They’re in busi-
ness for your success.
The best way to keep in touch
with your local asphalt dealership, is
through your dealerships salesmen,
right? Yes, but some even go a little
extra here to keep the communica-
tion open for you by offering mo-
bile friendly web-sites, some even
have dealership apps now. Most
offer cook outs, fish fries, golf out-
ings, open house events and holiday
events all for their customers. These
asphalt dealerships are ready for any
condition you might face, they’re
ready for your challenge.
I hope that I’ve opened your eyes
on the extra value and cost savings
that your locally owned asphalt
dealership can bring to you and
your crew every day. They’re a busi-
ness partner focused on you and
your success. That’s what makes it a
win, win.
