What if? It's almost guaranteed they will do a poor job. It's very seldom in this city that when they rip up pavement to make a water pipe repair that they do a thorough and proper job that doesn't sink in a few months and turn into a suspension/wheel/tire destroying pot hole. Some were done in our area a few weeks ago and already the filled in areas have sunk. I don't know if it's a "you get what you pay for" or "these paving companies are doing the bare minimum to make out like bandits off the city" situation or a bit of both but I wish someone was held accountable for the terrible work that is done on city roads by most of these contractors.
