💧 Fall Asphalt Tip: Keep Drains and Catch Basins Clear 🍂

Fallen leaves and debris can block drains and catch basins, causing standing water that weakens your pavement and creates slip hazards. Water pooling is one of the top causes of early asphalt failure!

💡 Why it matters: Keeping your drains clear ensures proper water flow, prevents erosion, and protects your asphalt from costly sub-surface damage.

👷 Why call the pros: Pate Asphalt’s maintenance team can inspect your site, clean drainage systems, and identify low spots that may need repair before freezing temperatures hit.

⚠️ If ignored: Blocked drains can cause water to freeze on the surface, leading to cracking, potholes, and dangerous icy conditions for drivers and pedestrians.

🏆 Why Pate Asphalt: With over 40 years of trusted service across Eastern Iowa, Pate Asphalt has built its reputation on honest work, reliable scheduling, and results that stand the test of time.
