Protecting Our Client's Pavement Investments Through Education, Honesty, and Quality Work

We Are Black Hawk Paving

Honesty

At Black Hawk Paving, integrity is part of our company’s DNA. We operate with strict moral and ethical principles, doing everything in our power to do right by our clients. Our goal is help protect your investments by performing top-quality work that counts, all while remaining honest, transparent, and committed to your needs.

Education

We believe in the power of education. Despite bringing decades of experience to projects throughout Greater Chicagoland, we understand that techniques and technologies rapidly evolve. Our team works hard to stay on the cutting edge while sharing knowledge at every opportunity. Through education and professional guidance, we empower our customers to make informed decisions about their pavement and property.

Quality

Since 1975, Black Hawk Paving has remained a mainstay in the Chicago paving industry, proudly performing commercial and industrial work for clients throughout Greater Chicagoland and the Midwest. For over 50 years, we’ve built a reputation for quality work, professionalism, and unmatched reliability, positioning us as the most trusted paving and construction company in the region.

Setting the Standard for 50 Years and Counting

Black Hawk Paving has served communities throughout the Midwest since 1975. Our founder, Dennis W.P. Davis, started the company shortly after returning from military service in Vietnam. For the last five decades, we’ve continually pushed the boundaries of paving and construction excellence, setting the highest standards in the industry while investing in ongoing training and education. Black Hawk Paving specializes in commercial and industrial work. That focus allows us to provide expert care, addressing your unique needs while applying years of technical skill and know-how. We’ve completed thousands of successful projects, creating a diverse portfolio that spans work for everything from private schools to movie theaters. We’ve also had the distinct pleasure of working for prominent companies such as Kraft Foods, Chase Bank, and PepsiCo. Those corporations trust us to build, repair, and maintain paved surfaces on properties that are integral to their operations. They chose Black Hawk Paving over the competition for our dedication to producing high-caliber results. Throughout our history, Black Hawk Paving has remained a family-owned and -operated business. Dennis W.P. Davis, his son Michael, and a host of extended family members continue to run the family business, ensuring consistent quality now and for many years to come.

At Black Hawk Paving, we believe that your investment deserves only the best outcome. That’s why we work closely with you every step of the way, tackling your distinct needs while overcoming challenges to deliver excellence on all fronts. Whether you need major construction or minor repairs, we’re eager to show you why we’re the best paving contractors in Indianapolis.

What We Can Do

Our Services

Asphalt
Paving

Asphalt paving is an investment that delivers real value by improving safety, accessibility, and property curb appeal. At Black Hawk Paving, we construct surfaces to your exact needs and specifications, whether it’s a commercial parking lot or an industrial surface that needs to accommodate heavy-duty vehicles.

Asphalt
Repair

Despite its durability, asphalt is not immune to damage. When distress occurs, you can count on the Black Hawk Paving team to assess the damage, determine the best repair approach, and restore your paved surfaces for added longevity and reliability.

Asphalt
Sealcoating

Sealcoating is a critical component of asphalt maintenance. As a form of preventive maintenance, it protects your pavement from damaging elements, including weathering, wear, chemical spills, and more. We apply premium sealers for years of lasting protection and peace of mind.

Asphalt Milling & Grinding

Milling and grinding are destructive yet impressively precise processes that help strategically remove old, damaged asphalt. We use milling to correct drainage flaws, smooth transition points, prepare pavement for resurfacing, and more.

Concrete Flatwork

Concrete is the world’s most popular construction material. Whether you need a resilient industrial surface or a parking lot that will provide decades of service, we can make it happen. We’re an experienced concrete flatwork company that produces services with exceptional strength and longevity.

Concrete Curbing

Protect your buildings, contain landscaping, and ensure that paved surfaces throughout your property can effectively divert water runoff. Concrete curbs also provide a polished look, and Black Hawk Paving can design, engineer, and construct curbing perfectly tailored to your property.

Concrete Truck Docks and Ramps

There are certain types of projects that demand the use of concrete, including truck docks and ramps. However, if you want your loading dock and its associated components to be durable and strong, you need to make sure that you hire a contractor who has the experience, skills, and knowledge to deliver high-quality work.

Full Depth Reclamation & Stabilization

Are you ready to reclaim old, damaged pavement while making way for new development? Black Hawk Paving is a trusted contractor offering FDR & stabilization services nationwide. While based in Chicago and proudly serving clients throughout the Midwest, we have national capabilities that allow us to service clients with property portfolios that span the country.

Warehouse Striping

There are times when a blank slate can be a good thing. Most artists prefer to start with a blank canvas, for example, and many schoolteachers prefer to start each class with a blank blackboard. However, if you have a trucking facility, distribution center, or industrial facility, blank pavements can be creating safety hazards, code violations, and other issues.

Car Stops

Enhance safety and create more order in your parking lots with professionally installed car stops. Sometimes referred to as wheel stops or concrete bumpers, these additions promote safety, better parking, and a five-star driving experience.

Grading & Excavation

If you have big plans to develop or improve properties nationwide, turn to Black Hawk Paving for grading & excavation services. We provide our services nationally, serving clients with property portfolios throughout the Midwest and beyond. With on-the-ground self-serving teams and partners, we can develop, execute, and streamline projects to meet your needs.

Hot Crack Sealing & Routing

Even minor cracks can allow water penetration, leading to rapid pavement deterioration and potential structural integrity issues. We’re available to route and seal cracks for lasting protection. Routing improves longevity, while hot crack sealers offer flexibility and water resistance.

Parking Lot Striping

Turn your empty paved surfaces into functional parking lots that prioritize safety, efficiency, and accessibility. We use premium paint formulas to apply and maintain lines of properties of all sizes. With our familiarity with federal, state, and local codes, you can rest assured that your striping meets the mark.

Pavement Marking

In addition to simple striping, pavement markings deliver crucial information to enforce safe driving, provide navigational guidance, alert visitors to potential hazards, and more. From ADA-compliant markings to fire line striping for emergency vehicles, we do it all.

Sewer Repair

Standing water can wreak havoc on paved surfaces, significantly shortening their lifespan while also posing severe safety concerns. At Black Hawk Paving, we perform sewer repairs to improve water runoff management and benefit your property.

Traffic Signage

A story has been circulating for decades that the only two cars registered in the state of Ohio in 1895 crashed into each other, making it the earliest automobile accident involving more than one vehicle in the United States. Most historians consider the story an urban myth, but it does raise an interesting point.
