They seal cracks and spread an excellent coating. Very professional. Not the cheapest but better than most at preserving your asphalt driveway and I have 140 feet of driveway. read more

They have a D- rating from the Better Business Bureau. They are terrible in execution and worse in customer service. DONOT use this company. The day after they finished it rained. Water pooled up in my driveway. I politely called and share the problem. The guy on the phone first said there could not be a pool of water on my driveway. I offered to show pictures.(he declined). he then started gettting angry and said that we must have always had water on our driveway (we've lived here 17 years and have never had water pool on the driveway). Then he said it should go away in 3 months? I said that that it would make sense for him to look at the photos. He got more angry, said he doesn't need to look at photos. I told him it makes sense for me to pay him in 3 months if that's how long it takes to see if they didn't damage my driveway. He got more angry, threatened me with collections and hung up on me. Don't use this company! read more

Fast and reliable service very attentive to detail and good value I highly recommend them read more

Late season seal coating. Easy to schedule, great work, reasonable cost. Unconditional recommendation.

The job was done when it was scheduled and it was done effectively. I haven't done any comparative shopping so I don't know if their price is high or low. I've used their services a number of times with no reservations. Will use them again. read more

Quick service, easy online scheduling, showed up on time and did the job as stated. A+

Have used them multiple times for annual blacktop sealcoating and pleased with results.

Absolutely the WORST seal coating company ever! They came on a day it was going to rain but did it anyway. It was a brown watered down liquid and only one coat was done. Within an hour of them leaving it began to pour and the liquid ran off onto the sidewalks and street. It turned into some kind of gunk and our driveway is a mess! They were supposed to send out a cleaning crew but that never happened. Yesterday a truck shows up at 4:15 with a crew to redo the seal coating. No one called to let us know and to ask if the cleaning crew had been there. The truck had no company name on it so you have no idea who these people work for. SO unprofessional!!! We told them not to bother coming back. read more

Have used them for years. Always good service and friendly crews. Service scheduled today 6/26/24, but rain forecast in the morning then clearing later. They came early about 8:00 AM. Sky was gray and cloudy but they did the job. 2 hours later, it rained. Not happy to see that when I returned home. It also didn't look like they filled the cracks I have in my asphalt. They could have pushed the service to afternoon or tomorrow with no rain forecast. One year they did do that, sent email because of rain. I'm sure they check the forecast just like we do. Took photos with timestamp for proof. They should come back and recoat my driveway at no cost. Not happy this time around. Will rethink future service. read more

Excellent sealcoating! I was so pleased! I got 2 discounts after booking online and before September. I have a double drive plus a trailer pad and the charge was so reasonable. This also included filling many cracks. I highly recommend their service! read more

Earlier review amended.Seems like the downpour caused splattering of fresh blacktop. company coming out to clean and repave read more

We used them one time. 8 years ago. They did a terrible job. We have been trying to get off their mailing list ever since. We haven't even lived in IL for 2 years now and still get emails with no link to unsubscribe or opt out. read more

We used Barreca Blacktop several times in the past 10 years. The last time was ~3 years or more ago. Always got good service. Payment was easy. Today, I received 4 emails within 5 minutes, stating that my account is overdue, will be sent to collections in 2 days. I call the phone number 847-970-5900 -- the voicemail inbox is full and not accepting new messages. Same issue as Kaitlyn N. and Daniel M. on 2/26/2021. @Barreca, please solve your problem and let your loyal customers know that you fixed it....and are not about to screw with our credit. Thank you. read more

I made the mistake of using them once. Now they won't leave me alone. Constant emails with NO WAY to unsubscribe. I don't need used motor oil spread on my driveway. read more

the job they did is awful. it looks no better than prior to it being done. no cracks are sealed. huge dips and cracks all throughout their work. read more

We received a mailer from this company, and decided to book with them to reseal our driveway. Super easy to book, and the team came out on time, and worked quickly and neatly. Driveway looks like new! read more

This company is A Plus from the lady who answers the phone and the guys who do the sealant. Great job and I highly recommend.I am picky so if I recommend it says ALOT!! read more

Received the same notice that we'd be turned over to a collections agency on Feb 26 that Daniel M. mentions. Payment is made prior to the job being done so there is no way we have not paid. Both telephone numbers for the company result in "Mailbox full" and there is no other means to contact them. Not sure if this is a scam or them not having their act together. The job they did on our driveway was fantastic at the time, but it was about 3 years ago. read more

I just received a notice of delinquent payment from Barreca and I'm being turned over to a collection agency. This is complete BS. a) The last time they sealed my driveway was at least 3 years ago. b) When contracting services, payment is provided prior to job online c) You'd think if I truly did miss a payment, i would have received some sort of notification in the last three years before being turned over to a collection agency. d) I called and received automated message stating "mailbox full" e) There is no physical address on website or google. d) You can't even get into their website without a customer number (which I don't have) I will never use this company again. Neither should you. read more

I have been receiving estimates for sealing my driveway from Barreca for years - apparently a previous owner had used them. I finally broke down and had the drive sealed this fall, and I am happy with the job they did. The payment/scheduling process online was simple. They showed up on time and did a great job - laid it on thick, extra thick where it was needed, and didn't make a mess. Then the payment was charged to my card, after the job was done and the agreed amount. Can't ask for much more than that - I will use again. read more

I see this company have big problem with billing. Use them before , no problem. Then I receive mail from collection agency . I gave them my credit card they just not charge it ! No phone calls .... nothing ! This year I use different company and must say they do better job. So if you use Barreca be very careful about your bill . What I see from reviews this is a real problem. read more

Although I received a routine emailed estimate from Barreca ( have used them in the past) for resealing my blacktop drive, this fall I went with a different company. I'm floored that today I got an email that my "account will be sent to collections"????? For what? I didn't use your company this year. So,then, If you try to call their phone # you get a message that the mailbox is full and to try again. There is no email on their website. Now, I will NEVER use this company again. Update: I was able to send an email to the owner through the BBB. and received this response: " Please disregard any email we sent you earlier. You do not owes us any money. Do not send us any money. You will not go into collection. This was my mistake. I was trying to send a collection email to people who have not paid me yet, but somehow the wrong email file was sent. When I realized the problem, I restarted my server to stop the emails from being sent, and right then, my network went down, not allowing me to stop the emails. Sorry for any worry this may have caused you." I do give the owner credit for this response. We all make mistakes. So I am posting this for the benefit of others who experienced the upsetting original "collections" email. read more

they got hacked. everyone who has ever used barreca blacktop sealcoating has gotten scam emails saying you are being sent into collection. i have not used them for over 6 years. voicemail is full and no where to email them back. read more

We were SO pleased with Barreca. They took us on as a late season project, worked quickly and very neatly, all for a great price. Terrific experience and we will be repeat customers. read more

I've been using them for years. They're great. Professional, polite, on-time, friendly and they do a good job. People on the phone are nice. The guys that come out are very nice. I've had to have some scheduling accommodations and they do it without complaint. I would recommend them to anyone. read more

Barreca Blacktop did an outstanding job; on a scale of 1 - 10 I gave them a 12; also gave them a monetary reward in addition read more

I have used Barreca Blacktop for many years now so even though I was offered the sealcoat job by someone else for a few dollars less I never even considered it. Like always they did a great job filling the cracks, seal coated the entire drive (200ft) and were gone within an hour leaving behind a normal great job. read more

Barreca did a great job sealing our driveway, which was new earlier this year. This was the third place we called (early October) and the only place that would still come out, all others were already booked for the season. They came and were fast, and then we got the invoice in the mail a few weeks later. Super easy! Highly recommend. read more

I too have received an email stating that my account will be turned over to a collection agency. I think this is a form of "fishing" and I cannot get through to the phone number. There is no way to reach the company and I am hoping and praying they don't mess with my credit rating!!! read more

Helpful much better than the last service. Filled cracks with sand , other guys would not cracks. I'm sure I'll use again. great value!

Used this company several years ago and paid in full. Suddenly got an email that there was a balance and it was being sent into collections (after 3 years and no other notices being mailed?) you call and the "mailbox is full" DO NOT USE!!!!! read more

I haven't lived at my address in over 3 1/2 years and received an email notice today that my account is going into collections. I'm pretty sure this is an error, but the phone number to call has a full mailbox and there is a no-reply email address. I even contacted the people who bought the house and they have not had the driveway resealed. No way to contact them. read more

Why are you sending out threatening collection notices? I haven't used Barreca in over 5 years and always paid in advance. Now I'm threatened that I owe you money???????? read more

Same complaint as many others. Received a notice of an overdue bill for a property I haven't owned in years. No way to contact company to dispute charges I didn't contract for. read more

My neighbor and I waited a month for todays appointment for service. They called this morning and wanted to reschedule for October 19 due to rain in the weather forecast. No rain, the sun is out in Plainfield. Told them to just cancel rather than wait another 3 weeks. I've used them for years and recommended them to my neighbor but time to move on as the guy answering their phone didn't seem to care. read more

They came out and transformed my very ugly driveway into a respectable presence on the street. My driveway was in really bad condition - they brought it back for a reasonable price. They will be doing this for me at least once a year, maybe twice for the next several years. Thanks read more

Best job at sealing driveway. Team worked fast and did a great job. Uses a top quality product and is applied in the correct method.

Second time we used them, super friendly and efficient scheduling, we were still in the system which meant a quote based on previous measurements was easy. Came out twice, second time to redo some spots of concern. Redid the entire driveway, no questions asked. Crew is knowledgeable, customer oriented and efficient. Competitive pricing, and again, warranty is impeccable. Would highly recommend anytime. read more

In regards to the recent reviews regarding the company sending an email requesting overdue money from most of their customers, this was done in error as the company did send a follow up email stating that the email was sent in error. I've used Barreca for more than 10 years. They have always been professional and have done an outstanding job sealcoating my driveway. read more

I got an email regarding I owe for services done. I haven't used Barreca in over 4 years. I found there prices not competitive with Firemen and have used Firemen for the last 4 years. This has to be a scam because the number given cannot be contacted. read more
