In 1958, Robert L. Mendenhall started what is now Nevada's top heavy civil construction company, Las Vegas Paving Corp. With very little capital and a lot of desire, he was able to turn one hot plant into nine while expanding the company's capability to complete any task associated with highway construction.
Now with 56 years in Nevada and the surrounding southwest, Las Vegas Paving's success is undeniable. In 2006, asphalt production climbed to 2,000,000 tons with aggregate production eclipsing 10,000,000 tons for the year. With our large inventory of equipment available for a variety of projects, Las Vegas Paving self-performs the vast majority of work contracted to complete.
Our scope of work includes but is not limited to: mass grading of private home and commercial developments, producing and placing asphalt for surface streets and highways, aggregate crushing and material supply, flood control and underground facilities, forming and placing structural concrete, constructing runways for international airports and multi-million dollar Design-Build and Construction Manager at Risk projects.

Formed in the early 1960's, the Excavation and Grading Division was formed as a compliment to the Paving Division. The first major project came in 1983 when the Carlin Gold Mining Company contracted with Las Vegas Paving to divert James Creek and construct the Carlin Dam. Final construction of the dam resulted in the placement and compaction of three million cubic yards of material.
