Our Services
Complete Parking Lot Maintenance Services in Palatine
From preventive sealcoating to structural repairs, we cover every aspect of commercial and residential parking lot upkeep.
Asphalt Sealcoating
We apply commercial-grade coal tar or asphalt-based sealant to protect your lot from UV damage, water intrusion, and chemical spills — extending surface life by 5–10 years per cycle.
Crack Filling & Repair
Surface cracks left unaddressed allow water to penetrate and freeze, accelerating pavement failure. Our hot-pour crack filler seals hairline fractures and structural cracks before they become costly potholes.
Parking Lot Striping
Sharp, visible line striping improves traffic flow, maximizes parking capacity, and ensures ADA-compliant accessible stall layouts. We use durable traffic-grade paint rated for Chicago winters.
Pothole Patching
From surface-level infrared patching to full-depth repairs, we eliminate potholes that create trip hazards and vehicle damage liability — same-day emergency patching available 24/7.
Drainage & Storm Runoff
Poor lot drainage accelerates pavement deterioration and can cause flooding issues. We assess grading, install or repair catch basins, and ensure compliant storm-water runoff management.
ADA Compliance Marking
We handle accessible stall marking, van-accessible designations, access aisle striping, and signage to keep your property in full compliance with ADA and Illinois accessibility codes.

What Our Chicago-Area Clients Say
Real reviews from homeowners, HOA boards, and property managers across DuPage County and the Chicago suburbs.
Posted on Google Kathi Watkins-DeitzTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Took care of problem when warranty company would not cover claim. ThanksPosted on Google Jessica RoubitchekTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can't say enough good things about Alta Property Services. My basement flooded due to a burst hot water heater connection--right in the middle of trying to sell my home. It was a stressful situation, but Alta came through in the clutch. My realtor contacted them, and they responded quickly and professionally. They handled everything with the insurance company, which was a huge relief, and got right to work on the cleanup and restoration. Not only did they mitigate the water damage, but they also installed beautiful new flooring--all in time for us to keep our scheduled open house. Thanks to Alta, the space looked better than ever, and we were able to stay on track with the sale. I highly recommend them to anyone dealing with unexpected property damage. Fast, reliable, and truly went above and beyond.Posted on Google MichaelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a leak in our kitchen break room. I called Alta and they had some techs on site within an hour or so. They were able to clean up the water, had mold testing done, got us a quote to replace drywall, rebuild cabinets, and put everything back together as if it never happened. We are very appreciative for the help Alta provided. All of this at a very reasonable cost as well. They are now our "go to" company for emergency services. Thank you Alex and Ron.Posted on Google Michelle SchroederTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Alta Property Services has helped my clients on projects large and small. And their work and customer service are exceptional! The owner Ron has always been quick to communicate (not always the case with contractors) and the folks he has working for him really know their stuff! Peter is one of the project managers and is not only organized but also helps come up with creative solutions when needed. Highly recommend!Posted on Google Dana StottsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our tech, Chris went above and beyond in coming to our house and completing the job. This all happened in sub zero temps in Chicago. After a long day, Chris called and provided an update on where he was and timing of when he would be able to be at the house. He was willing to come after hours (arrived at 7:30PM) and did a great job fixing 2 toilets and ensuring the job was complete before he left - and all with a smile. He was polite, professional and super helpful with explaining what he was doing. Great example of what great service looks like.Posted on Google Rachel McHughTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m extremely happy with the service we received. We have a home warranty and Alta was dispatched to correct a plumbing issue with our toilet, it was taking forever to fill after flushing. I’ve had this problem for about 2 years now, my warranty company has sent out multiple plumbers (2-3) who’ve attempted to fix the issue but were unable and just provided me with different excuses as to why it’s not fixed, like that I have low pressure etc, when the toilet wasn’t like that when we bought the house…I’ve been under the impression we had a leak this whole time, our water bill has been outrageous so I finally called the warranty company again on the same issue and was so relieved to find out Alta was easily able to correct the problem. I guess the 3rd/4th turn is a charm. Finally a plumber who knows what they’re doing, thank you Alta! I’m hoping our water bills will be more affordable now as a result 🙏🙏Posted on Google Mark ByrneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommended! I'm already lining up future projects for the team.Posted on Google Celine SchroederTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The team @ Alta was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and thorough. Everything was completed on time and 100% perfect. Am grateful for true professionals!
FAQ
Parking Lot Maintenance Questions & Answers
Answers to the most common questions from Palatine-area property owners and HOA managers.
In the Chicago metro — including Palatine — most commercial lots benefit from sealcoating every 3 to 5 years. Illinois's severe freeze-thaw cycles accelerate asphalt oxidation, so properties with high traffic or sun exposure may need reapplication closer to 3 years. Alta will assess your specific lot and provide a recommended maintenance schedule.
Crack filling uses hot-pour rubberized material to fill working or non-working cracks (those that shift less than 0.1 inches annually). Crack sealing uses a flexible sealant designed for active cracks that still move with temperature. Alta uses the appropriate method for each crack type to ensure maximum longevity and watertight results.
Under normal summer conditions (temps above 50°F, low humidity), sealcoating is dry to foot traffic within 4–6 hours and ready for vehicle traffic in 24–48 hours. We coordinate application with your schedule to minimize lot downtime, and we section off the lot in phases when full closure isn't practical.
Yes. Both the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Illinois Accessibility Code require accessible parking stalls, van-accessible spaces, access aisles, and compliant signage for multi-family residential communities, HOAs, and commercial properties. Non-compliance can result in fines and legal exposure. Our team handles the full ADA striping and signage package. Learn more about our HOA maintenance services.
In many cases, yes — storm-related pavement damage, drainage failures, or debris impact may be covered under your commercial or HOA property insurance policy. Alta coordinates directly with insurers, documents damage thoroughly, and handles billing on your behalf. Contact us as soon as damage occurs to preserve your claim window.
