Riley Paving is a family-owned paving company with over 50 years of dedicated service in Tennessee, Arkansas, and Mississippi. Established in 1954 by John “Chili” Riley, the business has grown from humble beginnings into a trusted name in the asphalt paving industry. Today, the company is managed by John Riley, who has taken the reins from his father, ensuring continuity of quality service and commitment to customer satisfaction.
The firm specializes in a range of paving services, including new asphalt installation, asphalt overlays, asphalt milling, seal coating, striping, and the cost-effective ‘Chip & Seal’ (or ‘Tar & Chip’) paving method. They cater to both residential and commercial clients, successfully handling projects of varying scales—from driveways to commercial shopping centers and even airport runways.
What sets Riley Paving apart is their focus on quality workmanship and customer satisfaction without the pressure of aggressive sales tactics. The company prides itself on building lasting relationships with its clients, relying primarily on word-of-mouth recommendations and repeat business rather than extensive advertising. Their mission is founded on a simple philosophy: to ensure that their customers are satisfied with every project, believing that this approach will lead to profitability and continued success.
In a market often marred by a bad reputation due to pushy sales techniques, Riley Paving vows to take a different route; they provide clear pricing, allow customers time to think over their quotes, and ensure transparency throughout the process. The company’s dedication to its core values—quality service, fair pricing, and no hard sales—has earned them a loyal customer base and a respected position in the paving industry.
