August 8, 2018, Area Manager Steve Ayers, Estimator Lauren Taylor, Construction Manager Jerry Hunt, Project Superintendent Christopher Stewart and Contract Administrator Bobbi Jo Forman received the following email regarding their Manatee County Central Jail Paving Project.

Good afternoon everyone, This is just to say thank you to everyone for doing a great job on this project. You have been a pleasure to deal with from the first phone call all the way through final billing. Property Management and the Sheriff’s Department couldn’t be happier with the way things turned out. Your company has a reputation for being professional, courteous, and big on communication, and I can see why. We are very impressed. Thanks for a job well done.

July 26, 2018 - After consulting with Safety Manager Eric Green, Foreman Major Flowers and Alex Jones went into action assisting the Florida Highway Patrol on a fatality that occurred at Gandy Blvd. in St. Petersburg around 6:30 a.m. Below is an email Eric Green received from the FHP in appreciation for Major Flowers and Alex Jones’ quick action and assistance. Mr. Eric Green - c/o Ajax Paving, I would like to commend both Major Flowers and Alex Jones for their actions today. This morning there was a fatality accident in which a pedestrian lost his life. Your two employees took it upon themselves to stop, get their safety equipment on including their traffic flags, and start directing traffic. This traffic accident was worked by FHP, but another Deputy and myself came to assist with traffic. Without the help of your employees, it would have been a much bigger mess than it already was. I want to say thank you for having employees that decided to take the action they did. It helped a lot with the flow of traffic. I also want to give both of them a BIG thank you as well. I attached a photograph of them as they were directing traffic for your records. Thanks to all of you. Corporal Terry Trautman

Corkscrew Shores Project On October 18, 2018, Ajax Construction Manager Garrett Fons in Fort Myers received the below email from Ray Blacksmith, President of Cameratta Companies, LLC regarding their Corkscrew Shores Project. Great job Foremen Chris Ance, Sam Manahov and crews.

I’m president of the Homeowner’s Association for Corkscrew Shores. Your crew finished paving my Corkscrew Shores development yesterday and are completing the necessary striping. I am emailing to commend your firm and employees. I met each day this week with Sam Manahov who kept me abreast of the day’s paving location and schedule which allowed me the ability to keep my residents informed. Sam and the entire crew were professional, polite, patient, understanding and responsive to any of our residents who they encountered. This resulted in a seamless paving operation. I look forward to your completing the balance of the development on or about the summer 2019.
