Lake County Blacktop Paving

Lake County Blacktop Paving is an asphalt contractor based at 2375 Cass Street in Lake Station, Indiana, handling paving, repair, and pavement maintenance work for both residential and commercial property owners across northwest Indiana.

The core of the business is asphalt surfacing. Crews install new blacktop and also handle removal and replacement work, tearing out failed or deteriorated pavement before placing a new surface. Driveways and parking lots make up much of the workload, along with farm roads and other rural drives that need periodic resurfacing or upkeep.

Repair and preventative maintenance form the second half of the company's work. Services include crack filling and crack sealing, sealcoating, surface patching, and pothole repair for commercial lots — the kinds of measures that slow water intrusion and keep small defects from spreading into full-depth failures. Pavement marking is available as well, including parking lot striping and layout for commercial properties that need stalls, lanes, and access areas re-marked after sealcoating or resurfacing.

The company traces its founding to 1966, when owner Frank Palmer started the business. His introduction to the trade came earlier, working alongside his father in the sealcoating business in Illinois, and that background in surface maintenance still shapes the range of services offered today. The operation remains owner-involved and locally based.

Work is performed in Lake Station and the surrounding region, with coverage extending into Lake, Porter, La Porte, Jasper, Newton, and St. Joseph counties. Inquiries are accepted around the clock by phone or through the company's website.

Customers range from homeowners replacing a residential driveway to commercial property owners and managers maintaining parking areas, along with agricultural property owners needing durable access roads.
