Why potholes form in Atascadero

Hillside and tree-lined lots deal with leaf debris clogging drains and runoff off slopes. Potholes start when water gets through cracks into the base, and traffic then breaks up the weakened asphalt. In Atascadero, the main local factor is long Central Coast storm series.

Our pothole repair process

Saw-cut or mill a clean, square edge around the damaged area.
Remove loose asphalt and failed base material.
Restore and compact the base where it has softened.
Tack the edges, place hot mix asphalt and compact it in lifts.
Seal the joint so water cannot get back in.

Temporary vs. permanent repairs

During wet weather we can place temporary cold patch to remove a hazard quickly. Permanent hot mix repairs are done once the area is dry, so the patch bonds and lasts.

Preventing the next pothole

Seal cracks early.
Keep drains and gutters clear.
Seal coat aged pavement.
Plan for several storms in a row: seal cracks, clear creek-side and tree-lined drains, and fix soft spots before soils get saturated.
