Common Signs Your Asphalt Needs Repair

  • Potholes

    Depressions where the asphalt surface has completely failed, often revealing base material.

  • Alligator Cracking

    Interconnected cracks forming a pattern similar to alligator skin, often indicating base failure or structural issues.

  • Linear Cracking

    Straight-line cracks caused by pavement shrinkage, temperature fluctuations, or improper joint construction.

  • Edge Cracking

    Cracks along the pavement edge, typically caused by poor edge support, drainage issues, or vegetation intrusion.

  • Raveling

    Surface deterioration where aggregate particles separate from the pavement, creating a rough, textured appearance.

  • Depressions

    Low areas that collect water and accelerate deterioration, often caused by settling or base failure.

Repair or Replace? Making the Right Decision

When faced with asphalt issues, the decision between repair and replacement depends on several factors:

AGE OF PAVEMENT

Asphalt surfaces typically last 15-20 years. If your pavement is approaching the end of its expected lifespan, replacement might be more cost-effective than continued repairs.

EXTENT OF DAMAGE

When damage affects more than 30-40% of your surface or extends deep into the base layers, replacement often provides better long-term value than numerous repairs.

BUDGET CONSIDERATIONS

While replacement represents a larger initial investment, it eliminates the ongoing expense of frequent repairs and provides a fresh start with modern materials.

USAGE REQUIREMENTS

Heavy-use commercial properties may benefit from replacement with upgraded materials specifically designed for their traffic patterns and load requirements.
