Pothole Repair face unique challenges: A patch that's just thrown in and tamped pops out by the next freeze-thaw, so doing it right means squaring and tack-coating the hole, which customers think is overkill until the cheap fix fails. Cold-patch is a temporary band-aid and hot-mix needs a plant load that's only economical with enough holes batched together, so single-pothole calls barely pay. Working active drive lanes and lots means traffic control and the constant risk of a car not slowing down for the crew. Customers judge the job by whether the hole's gone today, not by whether the patch holds through winter, so the durable repair and the quick one look identical on day one. On top of all that, Jobber charges $69/month ($828/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median pothole repair contractor earns $55,000/year. Software at $828/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.

He batches his calls because a single pothole isn't worth a plant run, so this morning's route hits six lots and a private drive to make the hot-mix load pay. First stop is a shopping center where a crater by the entrance is swallowing tires and the property manager's been getting complaints. He squares the hole with the saw rather than just filling the ragged edges, because a clean vertical edge is what keeps a patch from raveling out. He sprays tack coat so the new asphalt bonds to the old, shovels in the hot-mix, and runs the plate compactor until it's tight and flush with the surface, feathering the edges so cars don't thump over it. The infrared heater comes out for a spot where he can reheat and blend the existing asphalt into a seamless patch instead of a visible scar. Traffic's the other half of the day, coning off a lane while cars edge past too close, one eye always on the road. By afternoon he's at a residential drive where the homeowner expected a quick fill and balks at the price for doing it right, comparing it to a guy who'd just dump cold-patch and tamp it with a boot. He knows that fix lasts till the first hard freeze. He logs each patch and its square footage to bill the route tonight.
