Common Asphalt Paving Problems

  1. Parking lot potholes typically appear in heavy traffic areas where unattended standing water will become an eyesore. It could also lead to a potential tripping hazard for customer and employee foot traffic.
  2. Existing asphalt paved surfaces that have been around for several years will have some cracking. Applying an excellent rubberized crack sealer will prevent the cracking from further advancement.
  3. Over-watering by landscaped areas will cause deterioration and raveling of asphalt, making it rough and porous. That's when a sealcoat is most effective by not allowing water to penetrate the asphalt surface.
  4. Potholes result from standing water, whether the asphalt is protected or unprotected. Water will penetrate the base, and areas will get larger and experience more damage.
