OC Sheriff warns about Asphalt and Roofing Scammers

Oconee County Sheriff Mike Crenshaw was recently notified about the presence of asphalt and roofing scammers being seen in the Golden Corner. According to the Sheriff, these scammers will offer homeowners very low prices on sealing or paving their driveway and then demand a much higher price when the work is completed. These individuals also use substandard materials. “We urge homeowners to call the Sheriff’s Office and not engage in any type of work with these companies,” says Sheriff Crenshaw. “They will normally be driving a pickup truck, which sometimes pulls a black tar trailer.”
