Failure
Potholes, broken edges, utility cuts, settled areas, and isolated base failures call for different limits.
A patch should solve a defined failure. The right repair area depends on what failed, how deep it goes, and what the surrounding pavement can support beyond the visible hole.
What we look at before pricing the patch
Depth
Surface damage may stop in the asphalt or continue into wet, soft, or displaced base material.
Edges
Sound, squared edges give the repair a clearer joint than loose or crumbling pavement.
Drainage
Standing water and repeated runoff can shorten the life of a repair unless the water path is addressed.
Traffic
Cars, delivery vehicles, turning tires, and loading areas affect the materials and repair depth.
Access
Parking, lane closures, equipment access, and return-to-service timing belong in the work plan.
What the scope should explain
Remove
Define the failed area and remove unsound pavement or base to the stated limits.
Rebuild
Prepare the opening, restore the base where included, place material, and compact the repair.
Finish
Address joints, transitions, cleanup, traffic control, and the planned return to service.
