What American Asphalt Paving does

American Asphalt Paving Co. is a privately held, vertically integrated aggregate and heavy-civil construction company founded in 1951, headquartered at 500 Chase Road in Shavertown, Pennsylvania. It owns and operates two quarry locations and three asphalt plants (Chase in Shavertown and Keystone in Plains, the latter under the affiliate Wilkes-Barre Materials, LLC), serving commercial, industrial, government, and walk-in public customers across Greater Luzerne, Lackawanna, and Wyoming Counties in Northeastern Pennsylvania.

Core operations span the full quarry-to-pavement value chain: extraction of crushed stone, sand, and rip rap; production of hot-mix asphalt variants (Top, Binder, Base, Superpave, Driveway Mix, and Cold Patch) meeting ASTM, AASHTO, and Penn DOT specifications; and on-site delivery of site-work, paving, excavation, milling, road construction, concrete curbs and sidewalks, bridges and structures, and snow removal. The company holds Penn DOT certification and FAA and Army Corps of Engineers product approvals, qualifying it for regulated public infrastructure tenders. Adjacent lines include an equipment rental division (Shuttle Buggy, milling machine, sweeper, dozer, roller, message boards) and a used equipment resale channel. Products are sold to the public in any quantity with delivery or pickup, with pricing on a quote basis and free estimates for service work.

The company is family-owned with no disclosed parent, no private equity sponsorship, no funding rounds, and no equity instruments; revenue is not publicly disclosed. Customers are acquired through direct phone/email contact and the company website rather than paid marketing channels. Operating since 1951 with 51-100 employees, the company exhibits the structure of a stable, multi-generational regional contractor rather than a venture-backed operator.
