Professionally installed V gutters not only reduce the need for constant pavement maintenance but can prevent expensive, premature damage to the pavement. In addition,\u00a0V gutters also minimize the risk of unsafe driving conditions for customers due to ponding and hydroplaning. When commercial parking lots, sidewalks, and other paved areas experience frequent ponding, this long-term saturation will weaken bases and subgrades. Ultimately, poorly drained pavement will begin eroding, cracking, and develop irreversible impairment. Without V gutters ensuring water flow is directed outside paved locations, commercial property and facility managers\u00a0could be facing unnecessary costly repairs or pavement replacements.<\/p>\n

How Preferred Paving Can Help Your Pavement Drainage Problems<\/h2>\n

Computing the flow of water for individual lots and pathways often involves gutter flow calculations. Our technicians may perform an in-depth examination of the water flow rate according to rainfall intensity, width of water flow, pavement slope, and other factors prior to installing V gutters.<\/p>\n

The primary advantage of concrete or asphalt V gutters is proper water drainage to reduce the amount of standing water. Other benefits include:<\/p>\n
