- Walk and count potholes; identify clusters and underlying issues
- Saw-cut a clean square perimeter at least 12" outside the failure
- Remove failed asphalt and saturated base
- Tack-coat the patch perimeter
- Place hot mix in 2" lifts; compact each lift
- Roller-compact the surface flush to existing grade
- Photograph and log for owner or insurance records
- Written scope with quantities, materials, and a realistic budget range you can hand to ownership, a board, or a finance director
- Pre-construction notice package with dates, affected areas, and access maps so tenants, staff, or residents are never surprised
- Post-work walkthrough with photo documentation and a punch list closed out before final invoicing
What you get
- Saw-cut and tack-coated patches (no cold patch)
- Hot-mix or infrared repairs flush to surrounding grade
- Photo log of each repair
- Quantities and locations documented
- Workmanship warranty
- Photo-documented before-and-after record for your maintenance and liability file
- A prioritized follow-up plan showing what should be scheduled next season and roughly what it will cost
Signs this service may be worth discussing
- Active potholes with undercut edges
- Cold-patch repairs failing within weeks
- Tire or rim damage reports
- Pothole reopening at the same spot each season
- Multiple potholes in one drive lane (base failure likely)
- Water standing on the pavement more than 24 hours after rain
- Repairs made in the last two seasons that are already failing again
Ideal for
- Commercial properties with safety/liability exposure
- Municipal roads after freeze-thaw cycles
- Industrial sites with fleet damage from potholes
- Schools, hospitals, and institutional drives
- Owners and managers who need a written, defensible scope rather than a one-line verbal number
- Properties that must stay open and accessible while the work is completed
FAQ
Why not cold patch?+
Cold patch is a temporary winter material — it pops out within weeks under commercial traffic. Hot mix or infrared lasts as long as the surrounding pavement.
Can you fix potholes in winter?+
Yes — Avello runs infrared rigs that heat and recycle the surrounding asphalt down to 36°F.
When does pothole repair stop making sense?+
When potholes return at the same location, the underlying base has failed. That area needs full-depth reconstruction, not more patches.
Will the work shut down my property?+
Not necessarily. Every project is different. We will look at how your property operates and plan the work around access, traffic, residents, customers, employees, or other daily activity whenever the project allows.
How is your pricing different from a lower bid?+
The number at the bottom of a proposal does not always tell the whole story. Scope, preparation, materials, quantities, scheduling, and site conditions can all affect the final result. We will explain exactly what we are proposing so you can compare bids based on what is actually included.
Do you work directly with HOA boards and property managers?+
Yes. We can communicate directly with boards, property managers, and other decision-makers involved in the project and provide the information needed to evaluate the work.
What happens if weather delays the project?+
Weather can affect paving schedules. If conditions are not appropriate for the work, we will communicate with you and coordinate the schedule around suitable conditions.
Can you provide documentation for insurance or compliance records?+
We will discuss the documentation your project requires and provide the applicable project information and records available for the work being performed.
