Precious owner Paul Polito started Tucson Asphalt out of his garage. Using flyers in mailboxes to get business.
The company grew to seven employees, and we purchased our very first paving machine.
In the early 2000s, most of the company work was for the larger contractors in Tucson.
Perfected “Green Asphalt™.”
We had our first significant paving job at the Dove Mountain Center.
Bought our building at 2425 West Curtis Road and made significant modifications.
We started the “Street Print®” – genuine stamped asphalt.
The company strictly went to paving-only projects.
Toward the end of the year, the company became “Employee-Owned” (ESOP).
The company has grown to 40 full-time employees.
After two decades, the company moved to two new locations: Valencia Road and Nogales Highway. In addition, the company reached a milestone of 55 full-time employees.
