This company is amazing! They do amazing work. The people who complain about them clearly don't want their streets fixed I guess. They complain when roads don't get fixed but then complain when they do. Thanks for fixing PA roads and parking lots. Keep working hard and providing for your family. You are all appreciated.

Critical: Professionalism Watched their driver cut other drivers off, he wouldn't use a signal but would yell and flip them off for not reading his mind. He seems extremely angry and unprofessional driving like that in a company vehicle.

They were doing pavement work on a busy small residential street. There were no signs to watch out for construction, where traffic should go, or anything of the sort. The skid steer operator had no concern for safety. He was driving fast, aggressively, and carelessly, failing to look out for other cars and thus nearly causing accidents. He almost crashed into me while going in reverse. Wasn't going to write a bad review until he flipped me off. This company is not professional, not well controlled, and obviously has no concern for safety. This was on Rockview Drive intersecting with Veterans highway in Bristol, PA.

Report
Company is a fraud and run poorly. Long story short I had hood damage happen to my car on a highway in their construction zone (US1 near Morrisville), a large size stone came out of construction area and hit my car. I contacted the company and got jerked around for a while. Finally after multiple contacts I got ahold of CFO Scott Barcusky who told me tough luck, "why don't you go through your own insurance." I told him that the damage was done by his company and his works that I should not have to eat my deductible and take possible hit on the insurance.
They take no responsibility for their actions. I have multiple neighbors and friends in construction who can say this company is known for being horrendous (They used another word but I will not use that on here). All I was asking for is to be made hole, nothing more and they took absolutely no responsibility. Pa State should not be using construction companies on tax payers road that do not run safe construction and does not take responsibility when something happens.
