Lake Erie Construction Company, based in Norwalk, Ohio, is a long-standing specialty contractor focused on roadway safety and related landscape work. Its work includes installing guardrails, signs, fences, raised pavement markers, noise barrier walls, and impact attenuators, along with seeding and sod and other landscaping for roadways. The firm traces its origins to a garage-based tree service started by Paul Bleile more than eight decades ago, and it evolved through diversification into landscape contracting during the Depression. Today the company operates mainly as a subcontractor within Ohio while also taking on general contracting roles in multiple states. Leadership is provided by a family-involved team, including Bob Bleile’s sons and other relatives, along with manager Ray Chapin. The highway safety product lines—developed between 1950 and 1980—now represent the largest share of its business.
