How Do Asphalt Potholes Form?

Q: How do asphalt potholes form?

A: Asphalt potholes form when asphalt pavement surfaces become damaged from natural fatigue, neglect or improper installation. Typically, more about moisture passes through the upper layers into the lower structural layers and begins the deterioration process. Passing vehicles remove loose pieces of asphalt, and this process creates a hole. Rain and ice also contribute to pothole formation.

Q: How can I prevent asphalt potholes from forming?

A: To prevent potholes from forming, you can seal your asphalt pavement periodically and fill cracks as they appear. MH Greeson offers commercial asphalt sealcoating and crack repair that will help prevent damage, and keep your parking lot looking like new.

Q: What pothole repair services does MH Greeson offer?

A: MH Greeson offers three different pothole repair services including Asphalt Pothole Repair (skin patch), Asphalt Patching (full-depth replacement) and Asphalt Overlays. The extent of the damage to your parking lot will determine which service is right for you. Asphalt Pothole Repair is ideal for filling small, isolated potholes while Asphalt Patching is more appropriate for larger damaged areas where the entire structure needs to be rebuilt. Asphalt Patching involves cutting, removing and replacing the entire damaged area. Thoroughly damaged parking lots may require complete resurfacing with MH Greeson’s Asphalt Overlay service.
