Parisi Paving & Sealing

Parisi Paving & Sealing is a family business that has worked in pavement for forty years, covering residential and commercial asphalt across the north-west suburbs of Chicago from a base in Barrington. The Parisi family name has been attached to the trade locally for that whole period.

Paving is handled at any scale. The company installs new asphalt, resurfaces existing surfaces, replaces driveways outright and extends them where a property owner needs more hardstanding than the original drive provides. Sealcoating is offered to lengthen the life of a surface that is still sound, and patching is presented as the first thing to consider before replacement — the company's own framing is that a surface worth repairing should be repaired rather than torn out, and it will quote on that basis so an owner can see whether the existing pavement can be saved.

Materials are one point the business draws attention to, citing a preference for environmentally friendly products alongside its focus on quality and service.

The service area is wide and closely defined, taking in McHenry County and the surrounding suburbs: Woodstock, Wauconda, Huntley, Crystal Lake, Cary, McHenry, Algonquin and Lake in the Hills, the cluster of Barrington communities including North, South and Lake Barrington along with Barrington Hills, and further east through Palatine, Hoffman Estates, Inverness, Buffalo Grove, Long Grove, Deer Park, Kildeer, Hawthorn Woods and Lake Zurich. Smaller communities are covered too, among them Bull Valley, Trout Valley, Tower Lakes, Oakwood Hills, Prairie Grove, Holiday Hills, Island Lake, Forest Lake, Lakewood, Fox River Grove, Burton's Bridge, Carpentersville, and East and West Dundee.

Quotes are free, and the company describes giving customers an honest read on the options open to them for a given surface rather than steering every enquiry towards the largest job.
