Ever wonder what a real parking lot repair actually looks like? Kevin is out at a Longhorn in Clarksville, Indiana walking through a four-inch mill-and-pave on five or six bad failure areas.

Two and a half inches of base, an inch and a half of surface, 225 tons of hot mix, breakdown roller and finish roller working it in.

This is what it takes to fix a parking lot the right way... not a thin overlay over the same problems, but actually cutting the failure out and rebuilding it. The crew was on site at 5:30 AM to get in and out before the lot got busy.

Kentucky sun, fresh asphalt, and a crew that knows exactly what we're doing. That's a good day for me. I wanted to pull back the curtain on what our work actually looks like, start to finish. More like this coming as the season picks up. V Visit PaveitforwardLLC.com if you want us on your driveway or parking lot.

Early in the paving season, it's great to have little reminders.

I'm grateful to have guys like Tony and Gary on this crew. Real leadership shows up before the work starts. They set the tone, hold the standard, and make sure every man on site knows what winning looks like today.

That's how we pave with pride.

Asphalt up 10%. Diesel nearly doubled. If you are not adjusting your pricing, you are working for free.

Kevin breaks down the real cost increases hitting every paving contractor this season — and what you need to do about it.

It has been a few months since we sat down to record, and a lot has changed.

Kevin and Phil kick off Season 3 of the Pave It Forward Podcast with a real look at how the company rebuilt its crew heading into 2026. Kevin made some hard calls in the off-season: not bringing back certain guys, switching from Indeed and Facebook to Google Ads for recruiting, and pre-screening candidates over the phone instead of giving everyone with a pulse an interview. Three weeks in, the culture shift is already showing.

Then they get into the numbers every paving contractor needs to hear right now: asphalt index prices jumped nearly $100 per ton in a single month, diesel went from $3 to $5 a gallon, and if you are still pricing off last year's numbers, you are working for free.

Every spring, traveling paving crews work their way through Kentucky running the same "leftover asphalt" door-knock scam. They rely on homeowners not knowing one simple fact: hot mix asphalt begins to cool and harden within 30-45 minutes of leaving the plant. By the time they reach your door, that asphalt would be a cold, unusable lump.

Kevin Gray has been paving in Kentucky for 15 years. In this video we walks through red flags - from out-of-state plates to cash-only pressure tactics.

Would you pay for a brand new parking lot that looks like this in under a year?

Josh from our team found this at a local gym. Cracks running everywhere and the staff confirmed it was just paved last year.

Wrong mix, wrong scope, too thin, and the real problem underneath was never touched. A fresh layer of asphalt does not fix what is happening below the surface. Know what questions to ask before you hire a paving contractor this spring.

I spent the first decade of my career thinking I had to figure everything out on my own. White-knuckling it, convinced I was the smartest guy in the room. 

To every single one of you in the 2026 AOS Winter Sessions, thank you. You chose community over going at it alone, and that’s exactly how we move our companies and this industry forward. 

I’m incredibly excited for the rest of the sessions and for 2026 and I’m thrilled at what we are building together.
