Kaplan Paving Company - Commercial & Residential Asphalt Driveway Pavers

Kaplan Paving Company is an asphalt paving contractor based in Ingleside, Illinois, that has operated since 1979. It works across Lake, McHenry and Cook counties and into southeastern Wisconsin, serving homeowners and commercial properties as well as country clubs, schools, villages and other municipal clients.

Asphalt services make up most of the work: new driveways, replacement of old ones, decorative asphalt, paving of parking lots, asphalt repair and crack filling. Project write-ups on the company's site show how it approaches residential jobs. On one Glencoe driveway that had sunk in places and pitched water the wrong way, crews regraded it to send runoff toward an existing drainage system before laying and compacting new asphalt. On another Glencoe property, where village rules kept the driveway from being widened, Kaplan used a heavier pavement section placed in two separate asphalt lifts to parking lot standards so it could handle several vehicles parked on it daily.

The company also has masonry crews and is a Unilock Authorized Contractor, installing brick paver driveways and walkways. Having both paving and brick crews lets it take on jobs where pavers around a garage or trench drain must be reset to meet the new asphalt.

For commercial clients, Kaplan offers sealcoating for lots of all sizes, line striping with traffic paint to ADA standards, and striping design and layout aimed at traffic flow. Its parking lot maintenance program goes past patching and sealing to include speed bump repair, replacement of worn concrete car stops, and cleaning and upkeep of storm drain catch basins.

Snow plowing is offered alongside the paving and maintenance work. Free estimates are available, and project pages name Joe Revelle as the estimating contact.
