Pothole Repair

Professional Pothole Repair Services

Potholes aren't just ugly—they're hazardous. They damage vehicles, create liability risks, and quickly grow larger if left unrepaired. Pinpoint Parking provides fast, permanent pothole repairs that restore safety and smooth surfaces to your property.

The Problem with Potholes

Potholes create serious issues for property owners:

• Vehicle Damage: Tire, wheel, and suspension damage from hitting potholes
• Liability Risk: Property owners can be held responsible for vehicle and pedestrian injuries
• Rapid Growth: Potholes grow quickly as edges break down and water erodes the base
• Poor Appearance: Potholes make properties look neglected and unprofessional
• Expensive Repairs: The longer you wait, the more extensive (and costly) repairs become

Our Pothole Repair Methods

We use proven methods for lasting repairs:

Throw-and-Roll (Cold Patch)

Full-Depth Repair

• Rebuild base with proper aggregates
• Install new hot-mix asphalt
• Compact and seal edges

Why Potholes Form

Understanding causes helps prevent future problems:

• Water Infiltration: Water enters through cracks and weakens the base
• Freeze-Thaw Cycles: Water expands when frozen, breaking apart asphalt
• Heavy Traffic: Repeated stress causes pavement fatigue
• Poor Drainage: Standing water accelerates deterioration
• Deferred Maintenance: Ignored cracks eventually become potholes
