Founded in 1958 by Robert L. Mendenhall, Las Vegas Paving Corporation has grown to become Nevada's premier heavy civil construction company. Mendenhall initially started with limited resources and a strong ambition, transforming a single hot plant into a robust operation with nine plants producing asphalt. Over the years, the company has established a significant presence in Nevada and the surrounding southwest, having produced 2 million tons of asphalt and over 10 million tons of aggregate in 2006 alone. The company has the capability to handle a wide range of projects, from mass grading for infrastructure development to paving surface streets and highways. Las Vegas Paving excels in multiple divisions, including concrete, environmental, excavation, and grading, as well as underground and materials supply services.
Las Vegas Paving is distinguished by its commitment to self-performing the majority of contracted work, which enhances quality control and project efficiency. The company has undertaken a variety of high-profile and multi-million dollar projects, including runway construction for international airports and significant design-build contracts. As of May 2013, ENR magazine recognized Las Vegas Paving as the #44 Domestic Heavy Contractor and #185 among the Top 400 contractors nationwide.
Core values of innovation, quality, and efficiency remain at the heart of Las Vegas Paving’s operations, which continues to lay down the groundwork for their success in the industry. With decades of experience and a large inventory of specialized equipment, Las Vegas Paving Corporation proudly states, 'We’re #1,' reflecting its position at the forefront of heavy civil construction in Nevada.
