Continental Paving

Continental Paving is a large, long-established New Hampshire paving and site-work contractor, family-run by brothers Rick and Mark Charbonneau out of Londonderry, with three in-state asphalt plants and decades of state, municipal, commercial, and residential paving work — including current New Hampshire DOT contracts. The company holds an active City of Nashua drainlayer license, letting it do sewer and water connection work there. The overwhelming pattern in the public record, though, is about how the company's crews and drivers behave on the road and at job sites, not the paving itself. Across dozens of reviews from 2022 through 2026, homeowners and drivers repeatedly describe dump trucks speeding, tailgating, running stop signs, and making dangerous passes — and in an August 2026 review, one person said their fiancée was hit by a company dump truck while rollerblading in their own residential community, with no apology from the driver when confronted. Traffic control at job sites draws similarly consistent complaints: drivers say they've been directed into oncoming traffic, left with no signage around blind turns, or nearly hit by trucks emerging without warning. A 2024 review describes rock damage to a windshield from a passing company truck, with the company's insurer declining to take responsibility. This isn't an old, resolved pattern — five of the last six reviews, all from 2026, describe the same kinds of incidents. A handful of reviewers who describe actual paving work done — road resurfacing in Pembroke and Allenstown, a parking lot repave — call it fast and well executed, distinct from the flood of complaints about how the crews conduct themselves in transit and around traffic control. For a homeowner weighing Continental Paving against the company's decades of paving experience and municipal-scale operation, the safety and conduct record around the actual work sites is the thing to reckon with most directly — ask pointedly about traffic control plans, driver conduct, and how property damage claims are handled before signing on, and expect the crew and truck traffic that comes with a large operation like this one.
