Asphalt Repair Houston TX
Potholes, cracks, alligator failures, and full-depth damage — Pelagic Paving fixes it fast and builds it to last. Trusted by property managers and general contractors across Greater Houston.
The Problem
Damaged Asphalt Costs More Than You Think
A pothole doesn’t stay small. In Houston’s climate — brutal summer heat followed by heavy rainfall — minor cracks expand rapidly into major structural failures. Every season you wait multiplies the repair cost.
Worse, damaged pavement creates real liability exposure. A single trip-and-fall or vehicle damage claim can cost far more than a complete repair. The wrong answer is ignoring it. The right answer is Pelagic Paving.
Potholes and cracking worsen exponentially without intervention
Water infiltration destroys the subbase, turning cheap fixes into full replacements
Damaged lots expose property owners to costly liability claims
Most contractors patch rather than fix — leaving you back where you started in 6 months

The Plan
What's Included
Every asphalt repair project includes a thorough site assessment, the right repair method for the failure type, and a finished surface that blends with the existing pavement.
Pothole Patching
Hot-mix or cold-patch repair for isolated potholes. We remove failed material, prep the base, and install a permanent fix.
Infrared Repair
Seamless, bonded patches using infrared heating technology — ideal for high-traffic areas where appearance matters.
Full-Depth Repair
Complete removal and replacement of severely failed sections, including subbase repair where needed.
Asphalt Overlays
A new 1.5"–2" layer of hot-mix asphalt over a structurally sound but aged surface — most cost-effective large-area solution.
Alligator Crack Repair
Structural failure treatment that addresses the root cause — base failure — rather than masking it with surface patching.
Edge & Joint Repair
Repair of pavement edges, expansion joints, and transitions between asphalt and concrete sections.

FAQ
Common Questions About Asphalt Repair
How long does asphalt repair last in Houston?
A properly executed repair — correct base prep, hot-mix asphalt, proper compaction — should last 10–20+ years. Infrared and full-depth repairs outlast cold-patch or “throw-and-go” methods by years.
Can you repair just one pothole, or do you have minimums?
We handle single-pothole jobs and large multi-area repair programs. Contact us — we’ll give you a straight answer on whether your scope makes sense for us.
What is infrared asphalt repair?
Infrared repair heats the existing asphalt, allows us to add new material and re-compact it, creating a seamless, bonded repair with no visible edges. It’s faster and looks better than traditional patching.
How do I know if I need a repair or a full replacement?
As a rule: if less than 30–40% of the surface is failed and the base is sound, repair is the right call. If the base has failed widely or the surface is comprehensively degraded, replacement is often more economical long-term. We’ll tell you honestly which applies.
Does weather affect when you can do asphalt repairs?
Asphalt paving requires ambient temperatures above 50°F and dry conditions. Houston’s climate is generally favorable for year-round work, though we avoid heavy rain windows.
