Pav Tech Corporation logo

Lake Bluff, Illinois

Asphalt Paving · Asphalt Repair · Sports Courts · Commercial & Residential

Pav Tech Corporation has installed asphalt since 1976, working along Chicago's North Shore and the surrounding communities from Lake Bluff, Illinois. It covers residential and commercial paving, and counts home builders, general contractors and landscape architects among the trades that bring it work. Residential work centers on driveway installation, with asphalt repair offered across several methods. Rather than treating patching as one service, the company selects between cold patch, skin patching and remove-and-replace work according to the size and depth of the damage, which keeps the cost of a repair proportionate to the problem. Chip seal is available as an alternative surface finish, and the company also builds sports courts. Commercial work covers parking lots, milling and resurfacing. The published approach to a failing lot is more technical than most: drainage is treated as the first question, with grades and slopes engineered so water moves off the surface properly, and existing catch basins, concrete curbs and gutters assessed for whether they still function as part of that system. Only then are the surfacing options weighed. Three routes are set out for an owner — milling and resurfacing what is there, rebuilding the existing lot, or installing an entirely new one — with the choice depending on how far failure has reached into the sub-grade or base, and on the budget available. Estimates are free and carry no obligation, and the office keeps weekday hours.

Sports Courts FAQs

What is the best surface for an outdoor tennis or pickleball court?

For most owners, an acrylic hard court over asphalt or post-tensioned concrete is the standard. Asphalt costs less but cracks over time; post-tensioned concrete costs more upfront but is engineered to resist cracking, making it common for clubs and long-term owners.

Can you add pickleball lines to an existing tennis court?

Yes. Adding pickleball lines to a tennis court, or converting a tennis court into multiple pickleball courts, is common. It requires careful layout and often new or relocated net posts, so confirm the exact plan on paper before work begins.

Will resurfacing fix cracks in my court?

Resurfacing restores color, texture, and lines, but it does not repair structural cracking or base failure. Cracks typically telegraph back through a new coating. Have the base assessed and repaired before paying to recolor a cracked court.

How often do sport courts need to be resurfaced?

Outdoor acrylic courts commonly need resurfacing every several years, depending on climate, use, and how well the surface is maintained. A contractor can assess wear, fading, and cracking to recommend timing for your specific court.

Why does drainage and slope matter on a sport court?

Courts need a slight, consistent slope so water sheds instead of pooling. Water that ponds (birdbaths) wears the coating unevenly and disrupts play. Good contractors design slope and drainage into the base rather than treating it as an afterthought.

What should a sport court proposal include?

A clear proposal states the base type and thickness, crack repair approach, slope and drainage plan, number of resurfacer and color coats, the sports and line layouts included, any posts or fencing, cure times, and warranty terms — especially how cracking is treated.
