Weather, traffic, and poor drainage all play a role in how well the surface holds up.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Some of the most common issues we see include:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<ul>\n<li>Ruts and low spots forming from regular traffic<\/li>\n<li>Potholes developing after rain or seasonal freeze-thaw cycles<\/li>\n<li>Water pooling or running across the surface<\/li>\n<li>Gravel washing away due to poor drainage<\/li>\n<li>Soft or unstable areas that don&#8217;t support weight<\/li>\n<li>Surfaces that become uneven or difficult to maintain<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These problems usually come down to improper base preparation, grading, or drainage.
