Road repair in Boerne should correct the reason the surface failed instead of only covering potholes or ruts. Standing water, inadequate crown, blocked outlets, soft subgrade, weak base, edge loss, heavy vehicles, and lost surface aggregate can produce similar damage but require different repairs. Map the affected sections, road dimensions, ditches, culverts, slopes, shoulders, turnarounds, traffic loads, and delivery access. Repairs may involve reshaping, undercutting, stabilizing soft areas, adding suitable base or surface material, compacting lifts, and restoring drainage. For an estimate, provide photos after rain, road length and width, problem locations, expected vehicles, existing material if known, access limits, and the finish or maintenance standard required.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do repaired potholes sometimes return?
They often return when drainage, weak subgrade, inadequate base, poor compaction, edge support, or road crown is not corrected.
What should be inspected before adding material?
Inspect the crown and cross-slope, ditches, culverts, outlets, shoulders, soft spots, existing base, traffic loads, and drainage after rain.
What should the road-repair quote distinguish?
Separate grading, undercut, stabilization, imported material, spreading, moisture conditioning, compaction, drainage work, shoulders, and finish.
