When Trip Hazard Repair May Be Needed
Trip hazard repair may be needed when uneven asphalt creates rough transitions, raised edges, low spots, broken pavement, or walking surface concerns. Property owners and managers may consider trip hazard repair when:
- Asphalt has settled near an entrance or walkway
- Raised edges are present between asphalt and concrete
- Potholes are located near pedestrian routes
- Catch basin areas are uneven
- Parking lot patches have shifted or failed
- Cracked asphalt has created rough walking areas
- Snow clearing has exposed uneven pavement
- Water pooling has contributed to surface settlement
- Customers, tenants, residents, or staff have raised concerns
- Repairs are needed before line striping, sealcoating, or resurfacing
A site review can help determine whether the area needs surface levelling, asphalt patching, saw cutting, drainage correction, catch basin repair, resurfacing, or localized replacement.

Common Trip Hazard Areas
Parking Lot Walk Routes
Pedestrian routes through parking lots may develop uneven surfaces from settlement, patch failure, potholes, or freeze-thaw movement.
Building Entrances
Transitions near entrances can become uneven where asphalt settles, concrete edges shift, or drainage affects the paved area.
Asphalt-to-Concrete Transitions
Raised or sunken areas can appear where asphalt meets sidewalks, curbs, aprons, ramps, or concrete pads.
Catch Basin Areas
Catch basins may develop uneven asphalt around the drainage inlet due to settlement, water infiltration, or repeated traffic loading.
Walkways and Pathways
Asphalt walkways and pathways may crack, settle, or become uneven from weather, drainage, tree roots, base movement, or wear.
Patched Asphalt Areas
Older repairs may settle or break apart, creating rough transitions that affect walking surfaces.
