Patching & Pothole Repairs

Turner Asphalt Services Potholes

Whether working within a defined budget or repairing specific problem areas of a parking lot, our team regularly performs asphalt repairs. Rather than having to repave an entire lot, asphalt repairs target rectangular sections of the parking lot with failing asphalt. Using a milling machine or saw cutting very small areas, we are able to preserve good pavement and prevent bad areas from spreading.

Why Do Potholes Form?

Shifting ground

One of the main causes of pothole formation is movement in the ground the road is built on. As the ground shifts underneath the road, stability decreases while cracks and holes emerge.

Wear and tear

A surface made of asphalt is meant to withstand regular stress from heavy vehicles passing over it. But all surfaces have their limit. Over time, this impact compounds and contributes to pothole formation.

Water infiltration

Another main source of potholes is when a small crack allows water in, which widens and lengthens the pothole. This crack gradually weakens the surrounding pavement and a hole forms as water carries away disintegrating material.

Fix Potholes at the First Sight

Since these holes start small and quickly affect everything around them, the quicker they’re identified and patched, the less damage they’ll cause. It’s not uncommon for a pothole or two—when left unpatched—to spread and create a costly repair job on a surface that was otherwise in good shape.

The best time to identify potholes is after a hard rain. Rain can loosen the ground underneath and around a paved surface, causing the ground shift problem. It can also enter small cracks and widen them. Look for standing water in lower areas that are more likely to be affected.

Our Process

Prepare the Surface

We remove any surface debris so the patching material applies correctly.

Apply the Patch

We apply a cold patch, hot-mix asphalt, or a special compound to the pothole.

Compact the Material

We smooth the patch with a compactor or roller.
