Eliminate Standing Water Before It Destroys Your Pavement

Standing water is more than an eyesore. Here in the DFW metro, those puddles that linger after every rain are quietly breaking down the asphalt beneath them. Tex Pave Experts repairs the low spots and drainage faults that cause ponding, protecting your surface from the slow damage water always brings. The fix isn’t just filling the dip. It’s correcting why the water collects there in the first place.

Why Standing Water Is a Problem

  • Accelerated Deterioration – Pooled water soaks into and weakens the pavement and base
  • Cracking and Potholes – Saturated areas crack and fail faster than dry ones
  • Slip and Liability Risk – Puddles create hazards in walkways and parking areas
  • Recurring Damage – Until the grade is corrected, the same spot keeps failing

Our Puddle Repair Solution

We treat ponding as a drainage problem, not just a surface dip. Our approach corrects the cause so the water has somewhere to go.

  • Identify the Cause – We determine whether it’s a low spot, settling, or a true drainage fault
  • Correct the Grade – Using grade-control technology, we reshape the area to shed water
  • Recommend Drainage Features – Where needed, we suggest channel drains, french drains, or culverts
  • Repair the Surface – We restore the pavement so it drains and holds up

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does water pool in the same spot every time?

It usually means the grade is off or drainage is inadequate there. Simply patching the dip won’t help, so we correct the slope and, when needed, add drainage to give water a path away.

Can standing water really damage asphalt that much?

Yes. Water is one of the leading causes of pavement failure. It penetrates the surface, weakens the base, and turns small problems into major repairs over time.

Do I need added drainage or just grade correction?

It depends on the site. Some puddles resolve with regrading; others need features like channel drains or culverts. We assess this during the estimate and recommend only what the situation calls for.
