Parking Lot Repair in Houston, TX
Houston parking lots take on more water than lots almost anywhere in the country. Between Gulf storms and flat drainage, standing water is the failure mode you're really fighting. Harkin scopes Houston lot repairs to fix the water problem first — correct cross-slope, seal the joints, extend the surface — then applies the wear course that will actually hold.
Why Houston pavement fails the way it does
Houston pavement fights heat, humidity, and standing water year-round. Surface temperatures push binder past its softening point most summer afternoons, and Gulf storms routinely flood parking fields for hours at a time. That combination oxidizes asphalt fast and drives water deep into any working crack — the reason so many Houston lots need overlay work within 8–10 years of paving.
Parking Lot Repair
Parking lots fail from the edges in — drainage lines pond, curb-line asphalt ravels, and drive lanes rut where loaded trucks turn. We scope repairs against how the lot is actually used, not just what looks worst from the entrance, so the sealcoat or overlay you pay for actually adds years of life instead of masking base problems.

Yes — night work is standard for Medical Center properties, grocery-anchored centers, and any site that can't lose stalls during operating hours.
