Do you work from plans and specs?

Send plans, specifications and any geotechnical recommendations for scope review. Confirm bid requirements and clarify trade boundaries and exclusions before committing the proposal.

Can you handle TxDOT entrances and utility cut restoration?

Yes. TxDOT entrance paving and utility cut restoration are common subcontract scopes.

How do you coordinate base acceptance?

The project documents should establish base grades, testing requirements and who accepts the base. Proof rolling, compaction testing or a testing-lab review may be required. Confirm those responsibilities with the GC before paving.

Do you take municipal subcontract work?

Yes. Matthew Porter has substantial municipal and subcontract paving experience, and Iron Ridge takes public works scopes as a subcontractor.

Scope coordination

Most paving disputes start with an unclear line between trades: who owns subgrade, who sets base, who handles transitions at concrete. Iron Ridge bids with explicit inclusions and exclusions so the scope matches your contract.

Site logistics and schedule

Paving is often one of the last trades before turnover. Production is planned around site readiness, weather, inspections and other trades still working, with proof rolling, testing and base acceptance included when required by the project documents.

TxDOT entrances and utility restoration

Commercial projects frequently require driveway entrances tied into state or city roads and asphalt restoration over utility cuts. The scope should identify applicable plans, specifications, permits and inspections, along with which party is responsible for each. Requirements are reviewed with the owner or GC before work is committed.
