Why potholes form in Los Angeles

Dense commercial corridors, large multifamily parking structures and hillside neighborhoods mean storm runoff moves fast and collects at low drive aisles and alley entrances. Potholes start when water gets through cracks into the base, and traffic then breaks up the weakened asphalt. In Los Angeles, the main local factor is fast urban runoff and ponding in flat lots.

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.
Clear every catch basin and alley drain, and correct low drive aisles where runoff from surrounding buildings collects.
