Why potholes form in Mission Viejo

Rolling hills and terraced HOA communities send runoff down long sloped drives, stressing the lowest sections of pavement. Potholes start when water gets through cracks into the base, and traffic then breaks up the weakened asphalt. In Mission Viejo, the main local factor is runoff concentrating on sloped drives.

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.
Inspect the bottom of sloped drives and curb lines where runoff concentrates, and seal edges so water cannot undercut the asphalt.
