Alligator cracking that signals base fatigue
Services · Asphalt Repair
Asphalt Repair. Built to hold.
Asphalt fails from the top down. Water gets into fine cracks, freeze cycles widen them, and traffic loads finish the job by pushing the base into failure. We stop that chain early with the right repair matched to the distress we find on site.
Problems we see
Where asphalt repair fails.
Potholes forming at joints, patches, and utility cuts
Raveling and oxidation on aging wear courses
Water intrusion undermining the sub-base
Our approach
How we scope asphalt repair.
01
Site walk to document distress, drainage, and traffic patterns
02
Full-depth or partial-depth patching sized to the failure, not the map
03
Rout, clean, and seal working cracks before they open further
04
Overlay or surface treatment scoped to the remaining service life
Outcomes
What you get when the work is done.
Documented, repeatable, and built into every close-out.
- Patches that stay flush with the surrounding surface
- Multi-year extension over do-nothing baselines
- Reopened lanes in hours, not days
Questions
Asphalt Repair questions, answered.
When is a patch enough vs. a full overlay?+
If the base is sound and distress is localized, patching plus crack seal buys years. Widespread alligator cracking or pumping under load usually means the base is compromised and needs a heavier scope.
How soon can traffic return?+
Most patches take traffic in 1-4 hours. Overlays typically open within 24-48 hours depending on temperature and mix.
