Asphalt Repair & Patching in Rowlett
Potholes, cracking, and alligatoring on commercial lots and private lanes — cut, patch, and compact the right way.
Asphalt repair in Rowlett is mostly commercial lots and private lanes: potholes at entrances, alligator fields in truck paths, and longitudinal cracks along clay-heaved edges. Homeowners with concrete issues belong on our concrete driveway page — we do not push asphalt patches as a substitute for failed residential concrete panels.
Potholes: cut to sound pavement, remove failed material, compact base, and place hot mix when temperatures allow. Cold patch can keep a hole safe for a short window; it is not the lasting repair.
Alligatoring signals fatigue in the structure. Sealcoat over alligator skin looks better for a month and fails again. Dig-out patches or larger reconstruction are the honest fixes.
Crack sealing before summer UV and before winter freeze-thaw keeps water out of the base. We recommend crack work as part of a maintenance plan, not as a surprise add-on after the crew arrives.
Private apartment and HOA lanes take the same commercial playbook: measure, prioritize safety spots first, then schedule larger overlays when budgets allow.
How a repair day usually runs
- Mark failures and confirm traffic control for open sites.
- Sawcut or mill to sound edges; remove failed material.
- Set and compact base; place asphalt; compact.
- Optional crack seal on remaining working cracks.
- Reopen phased areas; note any follow-up overlay recommendations.
Price ranges on this site are typical DFW-east market orientation only. Your written estimate after a measure or site walk is the source of truth for price and scope.

Is it okay to pave over old asphalt?
Sometimes — if the base is stable and failures are surface-level. Alligatoring, pumping, or soft spots usually need dig-out and patch before any overlay.
How do you fix potholes properly?
Cut square, remove failed material, set base, and compact hot mix (or suitable patch material for the season). Throw-and-go cold patch is a temporary stopgap, not a lasting repair.
What causes alligator cracking in Rowlett?
Traffic load on tired binder, plus North Texas clay movement and moisture under the pavement. Sealcoat will not heal structural alligatoring — that needs patch or reconstruction.
