"What an amazing team at The Ground Up! We have worked together for many years. Striping is the icing on the cake when it comes to asphalt and sealcoating. They always get to our jobs on time and they always look amazing. If the striping crews have questions, they call the salesman for answers. I have nothing but great things to say about this company! I’m so thankful to have them as a working partner of ours! Thank you Ground Up! We appreciate you!"

"TOP NOTCH SERVICE! Great communication, excellent work! I stumbled upon The Ground Up and thought I'd give them a try for our local business in Murphy. They came by while we were closed and worked their magic! When I arrived back the following Monday, it felt like I was entering a brand NEW parking lot! They powerwashed it, then striped all white lines and fire lanes. Just a wonder touch and its amazing the difference fresh painted lines can do for your curb appeal. Thank you guys for your outstanding service! We will be referring you to others and using you at our other shops as well. Cheers!"
