KastRock Services, which provides OEM repairs and maintenance services out of Lakeland, Florida, joined forces with Mellott.

Established in 2013, KastRock has an office in Lakeland that includes a warehouse with stocked parts.

“In July of 2022, Mellott and KastRock united to create greater opportunities for our customers in Florida,” says Joe Kastner, founder of KastRock. “Our mission is simple: We are committed to providing the best level of service that our customers require and deserve. We look forward to continuing this and making it better than ever. Service is our passion, and we can’t wait to see what is in store for the future of KastRock.”

Rich Blake, president and CEO of Mellott, is excited about the company’s addition of KastRock.

“With over 35 years of industry experience, Joe Kastner demonstrates outstanding knowledge of aggregate processing and is backed by one of the best teams in Florida that the industry has to offer,” Blake says. “Joe and KastRock’s starting lineup of Jessica [Kastner], Eddie [Gonzalez], Brittney [Hulett] and Barbara [Geitner] epitomize the hardworking, small-town, family cultural values that Mellott and Marion [Machine] pride themselves on. This will truly be a great partnership.”
