Parking Lot Repair & Asphalt Patching in Chatham-Kent, ON

Pothole patching, crack sealing, catch basin repair, and resurfacing.

Freeze-thaw cycles make asphalt maintenance a recurring capital line for every Canadian commercial property. Crack sealing and patching in year 1–5 defers full resurfacing, which costs 10–20× more.

Chatham-Kent carries a labour index of 0.93 against the national baseline, 38 snowfall days a year, and roughly 2,800 commercial buildings competing for operator capacity. Those three inputs move the asphalt repair band below more than any other local factor.

Frequently asked questions

When is patching enough vs. full resurfacing?

If less than ~25% of the surface shows distress, patching and crack sealing typically buys 3–7 years. Beyond that, resurfacing is usually cheaper per year of service life.
