Built Right

Why Potholes Matter

Potholes are more than an inconvenience — they create real safety risks and can quickly damage vehicles, cause pedestrian trip hazards, and negatively impact your property’s professional image. When a small pavement crack is left unaddressed, water seeps in, freezes, expands, and weakens the subbase. Before long, a minor defect becomes a costly and potentially dangerous pothole. Proactively repairing potholes protects your customers, reduces liability, and helps maintain the clean, well-kept appearance your business depends on.

Recommended Pavement Maintenance Schedule

Pothole Repair:

Every 6–12 months, inspect your lot for cracks or surface breaks and repair them promptly to stop potholes from forming.

Regular pothole maintenance is critical — not only for curb appeal, but for the long-term structural integrity of your asphalt. Seasonal temperature swings, heavy traffic, and water infiltration all accelerate pavement damage. Routine inspections help identify issues early, preventing water seepage, cracking, and subbase deterioration before they become expensive repairs.

Because each property has unique demands, we tailor your maintenance schedule based on traffic volume, budget, and operational needs.

Both cost-effective and comprehensive repair methods have their place — and Appell Striping & Seal Coating provides both. Below are our two most common pothole repair approaches, designed for durability, safety, and a seamless finish.
BUILT TO LAST

Standard Pothole Repair Methods

Simply overlaying or paving over damaged asphalt won’t hold up in high-traffic areas. To ensure repairs last, we guide clients toward the right pothole repair method — one that matches the condition of their pavement, their budget, and the level of use the surface receives. Our goal is to deliver long-lasting, realistic outcomes that restore structural integrity and extend the life of your asphalt.

Saw-Cut Method
Appell saw-cuts the damaged pavement to create clean, stable edges, then removes all loose material. We use durable hot asphalt (never cold patch) to fill the area before compacting it for strength. Finally, we seal the perimeter with hot tar to prevent water intrusion and maximize the longevity of the repair.
Asphalt Patching (No Saw Cutting)

This method restores potholes by cleaning the area and applying hot asphalt without saw-cutting. It’s a quicker, lower-cost solution that provides short-term improvement, though it is not as long-lasting as a full saw-cut repair. Ideal for temporary fixes or low-traffic areas.

Compaction and Sealing
We use vibratory tampers and asphalt rollers to ensure tight, uniform compaction between the new asphalt and the existing pavement. After compaction, we seal the edges with hot tar to block water penetration and reduce the likelihood of future pothole formation.

Stronger Results

Why Choose Saw-Cut ?

Long-Term Durability: Creating a defined buffer zone around the repair allows for cleaner transitions and stronger, longer-lasting pavement edges.

Superior Bonding: Hot asphalt is thicker and more viscous than cold patch alternatives, allowing it to bond more effectively and withstand demanding weather and traffic conditions.
