Tatum Asphalt
Tatum Asphalt is locally owned by Billy Tatum and family operated. Our company has been serving the Central Coast of CA since 2012. With over 15 years of experience behind his belt and knowledge gained from working for another local grading and paving outfit Billy decided to make the leap to start out on his own.

Billy obtained his contractors license in 2011. We took a year to research and prepare to open our doors. Tatum Asphalt was established in January of 2012 as a husband and wife operation. Hired 3 employees and got busy working, over the next few weeks we grew into a full time operation with 11 employees.
Services
Tatum Asphalt has been serving the paving needs of the Central Coast of CA since 2012. While we are a "young" company we have over 50 years combined paving experience behind us. Our goal is to continuously deliver a quality professional service at a competitive price. We recognize that each job site is unique and requires extra effort to complete it the right way.
Billy exceeded my expectations at each step of the process. He gave a rapid estimate. He was able to do patch repairs sooner than estimated and he fixed the underlying problem. Tatum was prompt, fairly priced, and did a very tidy job. I would hire them again and I would recommend them to anyone. Very good work.
Asphalt is made from 95% aggregate (stones, sand, and gravel) and held together by asphalt cement. The asphalt cement is heated, combined and mixed with the aggregate at a hot mix asphalt facility. The hot mix asphalt (AC) is then loaded into trucks for transport to the paving site to be installed.
What are the advantages of asphalt over concrete? Asphalt is most times more cost effective than concrete to install, and less expensive to repair. It usually does not need to be removed, it can easily be resurfaced. Asphalt is designed to flex with hot and cold weather as well as slight settlements.

Top notch crew.  From ownership and boots on the pavement, to office staff and everyone in between, we can't say enough good things.  We have a long (1000 ft) rugged driveway that previously had lots of issues in poor weather, and was nearly impassable to an average car, but Billy and crew rehabbed it in no time and now we have a beautiful private road that is a pleasure to drive.  For all your asphalt needs, look no further:  Tatum is the way to go.

My wife and I manage a storage facility and we needed our parking lots and entry into the facility repaired and coated. We hired Tatum Asphalt to do the job. The price was good, the crew was friendly, and the job was completed on time and turned out better than we expected. We certainly recommend them.

We had our asphalt seal and their crew did a wonderful job. They were on time, work efficiently, and let the job site clean. I highly recommend this company!
