Virginia Asphalt, Paving, and Sealcoating (PAV) Exam Prep Course
A Virginia Asphalt Paving and Sealcoating (PAV) Contractor license allows licensees to perform service that provides for the installation of asphalt paving or sealcoating, or both, on subdivision streets and adjacent intersections, driveways, parking lots, tennis courts, running tracks, and play areas, using materials and accessories common to the industry. This includes height adjustment of existing sewer manholes, storm drains, water valves, sewer cleanouts and drain grates, and all necessary excavation and grading.
