Why water matters
Water is what destroys asphalt
When water sits on a lot or runs off a roof and under the pavement, it softens the base underneath. That's where potholes, sinking and alligator cracking come from.
We find where the water is coming from, whether that's downspouts, low spots, or the wrong slope, and correct the grade so it runs where it should before we pave. Paving over a drainage problem just means paving again later.
- Low spots and puddles. Regraded so water runs off.
- Downspout runoff. Directed away from the pavement edge.
- Soft or sinking areas. Dug out and rebuilt with a solid base.
- Water near buildings. Sloped away from doors and walkways.

What we do
Book now · November – April
Winter is the best time to pave in Florida
- Firmer, cleaner finish. Cooler days let fresh asphalt set up firmer, with fewer tire scuffs and turning marks than a lot paved in 95° heat.
- Fewer rain delays. Dry season means fewer afternoon storms, so the job finishes on schedule and your lot is closed for less time.
- Better sealcoat cure. Lower humidity lets oil-based sealcoat cure clean and even.
- Ready for rainy season. Drainage and low spots are fixed before summer storms find them.

Common questions
Parking lot drainage: FAQ
Why does my lot keep getting potholes in the same spot?
Almost always water. It's getting under the asphalt there and softening the base. Patching the top won't hold until the water problem is fixed.
Can you fix drainage without repaving the whole lot?
Sometimes. It depends on where the water is going. Text us photos after a rain and we'll tell you what we see.
Do you handle downspouts?
Yes. Heavy roof runoff dumping onto the pavement edge is a common cause of damage. We plan the grade so that water is carried away.
When should drainage be fixed?
Before rainy season. Winter is the time to get it done, so summer storms don't find the weak spots.
