Cook Grading and Paving LLC, established in the 1930s, initially operated as a materials hauler before evolving into a multifaceted construction company. Incorporated in 1950 by Montry Cook and later expanded by his son Thomas, Cook Paving became a pioneer as the first Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) certified company to win a prime contractor contract from the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT). With a commitment to safety, service, and integrity, the company offers a range of services including asphalt and concrete paving, underground utilities, and comprehensive site development. Over the decades, Cook Paving has established a strong presence in Northeast Ohio, handling significant projects that showcase their expertise, such as paving the warning track of Jacobs Field (now Progressive Field) and the Lake Rd. Substation Expansion for Cleveland Public Power. Guided by long-term leadership, including current President Linda Fletcher, and her partner Keith Rogers, the company maintains a legacy of fostering relationships built on trust and reliability. Today, they continue to play an integral role in community and industry advancement, focusing on quality service and lasting partnerships as they build a sustainable future.
