OUR POTHOLE REPAIR SOLUTIONS

We understand the urgency and importance of repairing potholes and offer two effective methods to address these issues on your asphalt pavement:

1. Cold Patching

This quick and efficient method for filling potholes provides an effective and immediate temporary solution. It’s ideal for minor damages and can be executed promptly to minimize inconvenience.

  • Our first step is to clean the pothole meticulously. We remove all debris, water, and loose material. This is essential for ensuring that the cold patch material adheres properly and lasts longer.
  • We use premium quality cold patch asphalt material that requires no heating, making it perfect for immediate application. Our team ensures the material is ready for use, breaking up any clumps for a smooth application.
  • We carefully fill the pothole with the cold patch material, slightly overfilling the damaged area to allow for settling and compaction. This ensures that the repair remains level with the surrounding surface after completion.
  • To compact the material, we employ professional-grade tools. Proper compaction is key to the durability of the patch, and our team ensures it’s done thoroughly for a solid and lasting repair.
2. Remove and Replace (Asphalt Patch)

This is a more comprehensive approach to pothole repair. The process involves:

  • Our initial step involves a detailed inspection of the affected asphalt area to determine the full extent of the damage. This careful assessment guides our approach to ensure comprehensive repair. Using precision equipment, we then cut around the damaged area. This precise cutting not only helps in removing only the affected asphalt but also prepares the site for a neat and effective repair. We ensure the cuts are straight and create a uniform shape for easier patching.
  • After cutting, our team systematically removes the damaged asphalt. This step is crucial in preventing the spread of damage to surrounding areas. We meticulously clean the workspace to ensure no debris or loose material remains. A clean base is essential for the new asphalt to adhere properly and for the longevity of the repair.
  • Before applying new asphalt, we focus on preparing and stabilizing the base. This involves assessing and compacting the underlying material to provide a solid foundation. If necessary, we add new base material to reinforce the strength and stability of the area. This step is vital to prevent future sinking or shifting, which can lead to new potholes or cracks.
  • The next step is to apply new hot mix asphalt. We carefully select the asphalt mix to match the existing pavement’s composition and appearance. Our skilled team lays down the asphalt, evenly filling the entire cut-out area. We pay close attention to the edges to ensure they merge flawlessly with the existing pavement. 
  • After laying the hot mix asphalt, we meticulously level and smooth the surface. This step is crucial for both aesthetic appeal and functional integrity. The final finish is not only smooth but also integrates seamlessly with the existing pavement, ensuring the repair is not only effective but also visually pleasing. We then compact the new asphalt, which helps in eliminating air pockets and creates a dense, durable patch.

 

Asphalt patching is not just a superficial fix; it addresses the root cause of the pothole or damage. Removing and replacing the damaged section ensures the repair is more than just a temporary solution. This method significantly extends the life of your pavement, making it a cost-effective and long-term solution for asphalt maintenance.

WHAT CAUSES POTHOLES IN ASPHALT PARKING LOTS?

Potholes are common in asphalt parking lots, often leading to vehicle damage and posing safety risks. Understanding their causes is key to effective prevention and maintenance. Here’s a breakdown of the primary factors leading to pothole formation:

Seepage and Expansion

Water infiltration is the main cause of potholes. When water seeps into the asphalt through cracks or unsealed surfaces, it reaches the base layer. This water freezes and expands during colder temperatures, causing the pavement to rise.

Thawing and Weakening

As temperatures rise, the ice melts, leaving a void beneath the surface. This cycle of freezing and thawing weakens the pavement structure, leading to the formation of potholes.

Stress and Strain

Continuous heavy traffic contributes significantly to the deterioration of asphalt surfaces. The constant weight and movement of vehicles, especially in areas with frequent stopping and starting, put additional stress on weakened areas.

Speeding Up Breakdown

On areas where the asphalt has already been compromised due to water infiltration, the impact of heavy traffic can speed up the breakdown process, quickly turning small cracks into large potholes.
