FINLEY ASPHALT WINS 2017 HIGHEST CONTRACTOR AWARD 5 YEARS IN A ROW

June 15, 2017- Pavement Maintenance and Reconstruction, the nation’s most recognized trade publication for the paving and pavement maintenance industry, awards Finley Asphalt & Concrete the Top Contractor award for the 2016 fiscal year- making this achievement the 5th consecutive year.  Out of a nationwide poll, Finley receives major honors for the categories of Paving, Sealcoating, Striping and Repair. The Top Contractor award is given to a limited selection of companies recognized in the paving and pavement maintenance construction industry as some of the highest achievers in sales volume.  The nomination reflects the strength of their market share and customer recognition.  “Finley aims for 100% satisfaction ... referrals are our best source of work and our reputation is everything to us. A Top Contractor means being the busiest and most referred because of quality and performance,” says VP Glenn Shapiro.


Since 2013, PMR conducts fiscal activity surveys throughout the entire industry to search for “who’s who in the business”. The survey provides a view of the nature of the market and the strength of the industry.  The PMR Awards committee narrows down 50 of the highest ranking paving companies with top earnings on the categories of service; paving, striping, sealcoating and repair.  In its awards announcement PMR identified diversification of services and markets as a characteristic of most of the Top Contractors  - driving participants to strive for industry leadership by covering all service categories.  According to PMR’s website (www.forconstructionpros.com), “Diversification is an essential component of the contractors with the largest sales volume. Almost all companies on all the lists perform a variety of services for their customers… The 2017 lists reaffirm what we’ve known for some time and what the lists have confirmed since started in 2013.”  “Being nationally recognized in our industry is truly a big deal for us”, states Erick Finley, CEO of Finley Asphalt and Concrete. “Winning this top award 5 years in a row shows a consistency in our quality work… and having someone like PMR validate our work is a feather in our cap as far as how we rank in our industry.”
