Commercial Asphalt Repair in Collin County, TX

For commercial asphalt repair Collin County TX property managers need, C & D Commercial Services has been fixing pavement since 1981. Collin County is one of the fastest-growing counties in the United States, and that growth creates two completely different asphalt repair challenges. In the established commercial corridors of Plano, Frisco, and McKinney, we are dealing with pavement that is 15 to 30 years old. It has cracks, oxidation, potholes, and base issues from decades of Texas sun and shifting clay soils. In the booming northern corridors of Prosper, Celina, Anna, and Melissa, we are dealing with fresh asphalt on new commercial developments that needs proper base preparation, timely sealcoating, and attention to drainage from day one.

C & D has been working in Collin County for over four decades. We have repaired lots at Legacy West in Plano, Stonebriar and The Star in Frisco, the historic downtown square in McKinney, Allen Premium Outlets, and the new retail centers going up along US-380 in Prosper and Celina. We know the difference between repairing a 25-year-old parking lot in Plano and addressing drainage issues on a brand-new lot in Anna.

The established lots in Plano, Frisco, and McKinney have the kind of damage that comes from age and heavy traffic. Alligator cracking, where the surface looks like crocodile skin, indicates base failure underneath. Potholes form where water has penetrated cracks and eroded the sub-base. Oxidation from years of UV exposure has turned the asphalt from black to gray and made it brittle. For these lots, we use full-depth saw-cut repair: we cut out the damaged section, repair the base rock, and install fresh hot-mix asphalt with professional compaction. For widespread surface wear, an asphalt overlay adds a new layer over the existing pavement.

The new development in Prosper, Celina, Anna, and Melissa has different issues. Fresh asphalt that was installed during wet conditions may have base compaction problems. Lots that were not sealcoated within the first year are already showing oxidation. Drainage issues from rapid development create standing water that erodes the base. For these lots, we focus on crack sealing to prevent water intrusion, sealcoating to protect against UV, and drainage correction to stop the underlying cause of pavement failure.

Throughout Collin County, the combination of Texas sun and expansive clay soils is the root cause of most asphalt damage. The clay expands when wet and contracts when dry, which moves the base underneath the asphalt and creates cracks. Water enters those cracks, erodes the base further, and the surface collapses into a pothole. We do not just patch the surface. We address the underlying cause.

We start with a comprehensive site inspection. We walk the property, identify cracks, depressions, drainage issues, and areas with base failure. We document everything and develop a repair plan tailored to the specific damage.

For potholes and base failures, we use full-depth saw-cutting. We cut out the damaged section to clean, straight lines, excavate to the base, repair or replace the base rock, and install fresh hot-mix asphalt. We compact it in lifts to achieve the proper density, and the finished repair blends seamlessly with the surrounding pavement.

For surface-level damage, we use infrared patching. The infrared heater softens the existing asphalt, we rake it, add fresh hot-mix as needed, and compact the area. This creates a thermal bond with the surrounding pavement that eliminates the seams where water can penetrate.

For cracks, we use hot-applied rubberized crack sealant. The sealant is heated to 350 degrees and applied into cleaned cracks. It expands and contracts with the pavement through temperature changes, keeping water out of the sub-base.

For preventative maintenance, we apply sealcoating. A coal tar or asphalt emulsion sealer is sprayed or squeegeed onto the surface, creating a barrier against UV rays, water, and automotive fluids. Sealcoating doubles the life of your pavement when applied on a regular schedule.

Preventative maintenance is the difference between a parking lot that lasts 20 years and one that needs full replacement in 8 years. The most important maintenance task is crack sealing. Cracks are the entry point for water, and water is what destroys asphalt bases. We recommend crack sealing annually for high-traffic lots along the tollway and US-75 corridors, and every 18 to 24 months for lower-traffic properties.

Sealcoating should be applied 90 to 120 days after new asphalt is installed, then every 2 to 3 years after that. Sealcoating protects against UV oxidation, water penetration, and oil and gas spills. It also restores the deep black appearance that improves curb appeal.

For new developments in Prosper, Celina, and Anna, we recommend a pavement inspection within the first year to identify any base compaction issues or drainage problems from construction. Catching these early prevents them from becoming expensive failures later.

We do not list prices on a website because every lot is different. Size of the repair, severity of the damage, whether it is a surface patch or a full-depth fix, whether we need to address drainage or base issues underneath. What we can tell you is that we have been buying hot-mix asphalt and repair materials from the same DFW suppliers for over 40 years. Those relationships mean our material costs are lower than most competitors, and we pass that along. Property managers who compare our quotes typically find we come in lower.
