FIX THE DAMAGE.
PROTECT YOUR PAVEMENT.
Professional asphalt repair for driveways, parking lots and paved surfaces throughout Northern Illinois. The Blacktop Guy has been serving Illinois since 1989.
Damaged Asphalt Doesn’t Always Mean Starting Over.
Asphalt pavement takes a beating. Vehicle traffic, changing weather conditions, water and normal aging can eventually lead to damaged or deteriorated areas.
When the damage is limited to specific sections of a driveway or parking lot, asphalt repair may be a more practical option than replacing the entire paved surface.
The Blacktop Guy provides residential and commercial asphalt repair throughout Northern Illinois. We’ll evaluate the affected area and discuss the paving solution appropriate for the condition of your property.
Common Pavement Problems We Can Evaluate.
Asphalt damage can take many forms. The right repair approach depends on the type, location and extent of the deterioration.
Pothole Repair
Potholes can create rough driving surfaces and may continue to deteriorate as vehicles and weather affect the damaged pavement.
Asphalt Patching
Localized sections of deteriorated pavement may be removed and repaired without replacing an entire driveway or parking lot.
Cracked Pavement
Cracking can range from isolated surface problems to signs of more extensive pavement deterioration. The condition should be evaluated before deciding on the appropriate solution.
Depressions & Settlement
Low or settled pavement areas can create an uneven surface and may allow water to collect depending on the location and grade.
Deteriorated Asphalt Edges
Pavement edges can deteriorate over time, particularly in areas exposed to repeated vehicle traffic or unsupported conditions.
Damaged Pavement Sections
When damage is concentrated in one portion of an otherwise usable asphalt surface, targeted repair may be worth considering.

Asphalt Repair for Every Type of Property.
From residential driveways to commercial parking lots, damaged pavement should be evaluated based on the condition and needs of the individual property.
Driveway Asphalt Repair
Damaged sections of a residential driveway may be candidates for repair when the majority of the pavement remains in serviceable condition.
If deterioration extends throughout the driveway, complete replacement may need to be considered instead.
Driveway Replacement →Parking Lot Asphalt Repair
Commercial pavement can develop localized areas of damage from traffic, weather and normal deterioration. Repairing affected areas may help address specific pavement failures.
Larger or widespread pavement problems may require a more complete parking lot paving solution.
Parking Lot Paving →Repair the Problem. Not Just the Appearance.
A dark patch of new asphalt may be the visible result, but the repair process begins with understanding the condition of the damaged pavement.
Depending on the type of failure, the affected area may require removal and preparation before new asphalt is installed.
Every repair is different. The process used will depend on the existing pavement and the conditions found at the property.
Evaluate the Damage
We consider the location, extent and condition of the damaged pavement.
Remove Failed Material
Deteriorated pavement may be removed as required based on the scope of the repair.
Prepare the Repair Area
The area is prepared for the new asphalt based on existing conditions.
Install New Asphalt
New asphalt is installed and compacted to complete the repaired section of pavement.
Fix the Failed Area. Keep the Good Pavement.
One of the advantages of targeted asphalt repair is the ability to address a specific failed section when the surrounding pavement remains in usable condition.
Rather than automatically replacing an entire driveway or parking lot, the condition of the overall pavement can be considered before determining the appropriate scope of work.
If the damage has become widespread, we’ll help you understand when a larger paving project may need to be considered.
Request a Repair Estimate →Know When a Repair Is No Longer Enough.
The extent of pavement deterioration is one of the most important factors when deciding between targeted repair and a larger replacement project.
Localized Pavement Damage
Repair may be worth considering when deterioration is concentrated in specific areas and the surrounding asphalt remains in serviceable condition.
Get a Repair Estimate →Widespread Deterioration
When cracking, failure or deterioration extends throughout much of the pavement, continuing to make individual repairs may no longer address the overall condition of the surface.
Driveway Replacement →Maintain the Asphalt You Already Have.
Repair addresses damaged areas, while ongoing asphalt maintenance focuses on the condition of the existing pavement surface.
Depending on the age and condition of your asphalt, sealcoating may be one option to consider as part of an ongoing pavement maintenance plan.
