🚨 Top Parking Lot Maintenance Scams at the Jersey Shore—Don’t Fall Victim! 🚨

The Jersey Shore is flooded with dishonest, fly-by-night asphalt contractors looking to make a quick buck off unsuspecting property owners. Here are the biggest scams you need to watch out for before hiring any contractor:

⚠️ 1. The "Traveler" Scam – Out-of-State Contractors Disappearing Overnight

🛻 Who’s behind it? Out-of-state contractors, also known as Travelers, flood the Jersey Shore from April to October. They operate out of trailer parks or short-term rentals, working fast, cheap, and leaving behind low-quality, failing pavement work.

💨 Why it’s a scam: Once the season ends, they vanish—taking your money with them. No warranties, no way to reach them, no recourse.

⚠️ 2. The No Real Office Scam – No Fixed Address = No Accountability

📍 Who’s behind it? Contractors who rent P.O. boxes, virtual offices, or temporary spaces instead of owning a legitimate place of business.

🏃 Why it’s a scam: If something goes wrong, they can disappear overnight—leaving you with no way to recover your money or get your work fixed.

✅ How to protect yourself: Always check if a contractor owns or leases a verifiable commercial property, not just a rented mailbox or home garage at a rented property.

⚠️ 3. The Deposit Scam – Pay Now, Regret Later

💰 Who’s behind it? Contractors who demand large upfront deposits before they even start the job.

⏳ Why it’s a scam: Once they have your money, they:
❌ Stretch the job out for weeks with excuses
❌ Do a fraction of the work and never return
❌ Disappear entirely with your deposit

✅ How to protect yourself: Never pay a large deposit! Legitimate companies like FixAsphalt.com require NO DEPOSITS—you pay when the job is complete.

⚠️ 4. The "Two-Coat" Sealcoating Scam – You Only Get One!

🎨 Who’s behind it? Sealcoating contractors who promise two coats of sealer but only apply one—using deceptive wording in their contracts.

🔍 How they trick you:
📄 Their proposals use vague terms like “two-coat application” but fail to specify “two full, separate coats.”  They try to use semantics such as a "double application" or "two in one" and other fancy wordplay.
💦 They dilute the sealer or apply one thick, uneven coat instead of two separate drying coats.

✅ How to protect yourself: Demand that your proposal clearly states “two separate, fully dried coats applied with adequate drying time.”

⚠️ 5. The Leftover Material Scam – The Classic Con Artist Move

🚧 Who’s behind it? Drive-by scammers who show up unannounced and claim to have “leftover asphalt or sealer” from another job.

🛑 Why it’s a scam:
❌ Legitimate contractors NEVER have leftover asphalt—it hardens too fast!
❌ The material is either low-quality, watered down, or expired—leading to a disaster on your pavement.

✅ How to protect yourself: NEVER hire a contractor who knocks on your door offering a deal with ‘leftover materials.’ This is a red flag for a scam.
