How Do You Repair Potholes?
Potholes not only create a bad first impression for your customers and guests. They also pose safety hazards to vehicles and other equipment, causing up to thousands of dollars in property damage.
If you’re looking for a quick, temporary fix, we’ll apply a cold patch or hot-mix asphalt to the potholes on your property. But if you want a more permanent solution, we recommend infrared asphalt patching. Let’s chat to determine which option is right for you.
Common Pothole Issues We Fix
Potholes on commercial properties are usually caused by water damage, traffic stress, or underlying base failure. We identify the root cause before repairing to prevent the issue from coming back.
- High Traffic Entrances Breaking Down
- Loading Docks With Repeat Failures
- Multi Family And HOA Lot Deterioration
- Water Pooling Areas Causing Damage
Why Do Potholes Keep Coming Back?
Many potholes return because the underlying aggregate base has failed.
Warning signs include:
- Repeated repairs in the same location
- Depressions around the repair area
- Standing water after rain
- Cracking surrounding the pothole
- Soft pavement under vehicle loads
If the base has failed, a simple surface patch may only be a temporary solution.
What Causes Potholes In Commercial Parking Lots?
Kansas and Kansas City parking lots commonly develop potholes due to:
- Water Intrusion
- Through Cracks
- Freeze Thaw Cycles
- Heavy Truck Traffic
- Poor Drainage
- Base Layer Failure
- Aging Asphalt Surfaces
- Improper Previous Repairs
Patching & Pothole Repair Process
Prepare the Surface
We remove all debris from the paved surface so the patch applies properly.
Apply the Patch
We apply the patch to the pothole(s).
Compact the Material
Using a compactor or roller, we smooth the patch to create a seamless finish.
How Much Does Pothole Repair Cost in Kansas City?
Pothole repair costs vary based on size, depth, and whether the base layer is damaged. Temporary patching is lower cost, while full depth repairs are more durable and prevent repeat failures.
- Small surface patches typically cost less but may be temporary
- Larger or deeper potholes require more material and labor
- Base repair increases cost but prevents recurring issues
- Multiple repairs across a property can be bundled for efficiency

Should You Repair or Replace Asphalt
Pothole repair is effective when damage is isolated, but widespread failure may require resurfacing or replacement.
- Repair if potholes are limited to specific areas
- Patch if the base is still structurally sound
- Consider milling if surface damage is widespread
- Replace sections if potholes keep returning in the same spots
Potholes Often Start With Drainage Problems
Potholes are frequently a symptom of a larger drainage issue.
Common drainage problems include:
- Standing water
- Low spots
- Improper grading
- Blocked catch basins
- Settlement around drains
- Stormwater runoff issues
Our team evaluates drainage conditions before recommending repairs to help prevent repeat pavement failures.
