Asphalt Patching
Professional Asphalt Patching Services
Not every asphalt problem requires a full replacement. Our asphalt patching services target specific areas of damage — potholes, crumbling edges, sunken spots, and alligator cracking — restoring them to a smooth, safe condition. We use hot-mix asphalt and proper compaction techniques to ensure patches bond seamlessly with the existing surface. Whether it's a single pothole in your driveway or multiple damaged areas in a parking lot, our patching repairs are built to last through Minnesota's freeze-thaw cycles.
When is Patching the Right Solution?
Asphalt patching is the most cost-effective solution when damage is localized rather than widespread. If your driveway or parking lot has isolated potholes, small cracks, or areas where the surface has started to break apart, patching can extend the life of your pavement by years without the expense of a full replacement. Our team evaluates the extent of the damage and the condition of the base underneath to determine whether patching, overlay, or replacement is the best approach. We always recommend the most honest, cost-effective solution for your situation.
Our Patching Process
We start by cutting out the damaged area in a clean, squared-off shape to remove all compromised material. Next, we inspect and repair the gravel base if needed, ensuring a solid foundation. We then apply hot-mix asphalt in layers, compacting each layer for maximum density and durability. The finished patch is level with the surrounding surface, providing a smooth transition and preventing water from pooling. For larger repairs, we use infrared asphalt technology to create seamless, invisible patches that blend perfectly with the existing surface.
