Gaunt & Son Asphalt Inc. was founded in 1981 by Michael and Georgianna Hileman and has proudly served the Wabash County community for the last 45 years. One thing that has not changed over the last four-plus decades is the business’ commitment to the values established by its founders: hard work, integrity, quality workmanship, and customer service. Gaunt & Son also prides itself on its unending support for the Wabash County community, often offering their time and talents to many local projects and causes.

“Gaunt and Son Asphalt, Inc. has been a part of who I am since birth,” Anthony Sorg, Project Manager, said. “My grandmother and grandfather started the company and my father retired from here after 30 years of service. I have a lot of pride in the quality of work we perform, and in our employees, who provide the quality work.”

"I have had the privilege of working at Gaunt & Son Asphalt, Inc. since 1986. Over the years, I have built lasting relationships with many outstanding customers while working alongside dedicated employees who share a commitment to producing quality projects. We take great pride in being a local company delivering high-quality asphalt and concrete projects to our customers. Building trust, maintaining strong partnerships, and ensuring customer satisfaction have always been at the heart of what we do. I am grateful to be part of a team that values integrity, quality, and hard work," said Sam Knight, Vice President of Gaunt and Son Asphalt, Inc.
