Building Kentucky Since 1939
For more than 85 years, The Allen Company, Inc. has been laying the groundwork—literally—for communities across Central and Eastern Kentucky. Founded in 1939, what began as a small road construction business has grown into one of the region’s most respected names in heavy civil construction, asphalt paving, and aggregate production.
Headquartered in Lexington, Kentucky, The Allen Company has played a key role in shaping the region’s infrastructure—from interstates and city streets to commercial developments and industrial sites. With a network of quarries, asphalt plants, and construction crews, we bring unmatched experience, materials, and performance to every project we touch.
We take pride in being more than just a contractor.
As a family-owned and Kentucky-grown company, we believe in delivering quality that lasts, investing in local communities, and building strong relationships with our partners. Our team combines decades of know-how with today’s most advanced equipment and technology, ensuring that every job is completed safely, efficiently, and with the highest standards.
From highways to home developments, we’re proud to be a driving force in Kentucky’s growth—for generations past and those yet to come.
