I love all of the comments from people who have clearly never worked with asphalt or cold patch. Do you people not realize that this video was made for home owners who most likely do not have access to tampers or hot mix or asphalt saws? Working for my city’s street division for the past 7 years I can tell you cold patch will hold up in a scenario like this for months years possibly if it is done right it even will hold up on high traffic roadways if compacted enough. Do any of you even realize how expensive hot patch is and that you can only buy it by 1/4 ton increments? This saved the home owner money and was a great fix. Rather then calling a paving company and spending an arm and a leg for work that didnt need to be done they did it themselves. Enough from you arm chair quarterbacks who have never used the stuff more then twice in your life.

Are you new to youtube? Haven't you figured out how youtube works, yet? - Post a video - Wait for all the trolls to arrive and give their criticisms (not recommendations/solutions, nor their own videos showing their so-called successful method). Then they leave behind derogatory comments towards someone trying to help others out... then they move-on. Although when "you" leave comments recognizing them, you only feed right into their hands. If you ignore them they have nothing to feed off, and leave..... LOL

Didn't know you could repair a pothole over top of broken asphalt. Thought you had to break it up completely, clean it out, cut clean edges with a concrete saw, add gravel before pouring the asphalt in and tamping. This is much easier. You learn something new everyday. Going to try it - hope it works... and lasts. Thanks for this.

Thank you for letting me know that it takes three weeks for the repair to be ready to be resurfaced. I had someone repair and refinish my small driveway. He did not repair any cracks and the asphalt repair looks like patchwork. He did not refinish it at all. It looks like a child did it. I am going to repair the cracks and I will use crack filler on the asphalt repair myself, and I will refinish the entire driveway with another coat. Weeds are already coming through the driveway cracks after two weeks. I paid $1000 for a $300 job. It took me hours to figure out how and when to refinish a driveway after asphalt driveway repair. Once I do all that and I fill in the cracks, then maybe it will look like a $1000 job.

If you have a hole deeper than 2 inches then would it be a good idea to use cement below that (and obviously wait for that to dry) because cement is cheaper?

Think you're supposed to tamper in-between filling it up. Pour a little, tamper...etc, until filled completely. At least every patch I've had to use calls for that.

Driveway sealer makes a patch not want to stick and peal off in shot order. use a propane torch to heat up the area and burn off some seal coat then slap on a patch while it's good and hot.

if its not the same density or let say "ingredients" , will it look too obvious or its gonna fairly good ? ( well , in worst case you just seal the whole driveway as well)

So, potholes happen due to moisture and temperature changes The moisture with freeze and thaw and move closer to the surface each time causing expansion and compression weakining the bond between bitumen and stone causing cracks in the pavement. Best thing to do with this stuff instead of tamping is follow his steps but dry the hole with a propane torch (make sure the surface is around 30 degrees celsius) fill the hole for every foot wide you want about 2 inches vertical clearance and smack it with a flat shovel. Over time, it will sink. But reapply and you'll never really have to worry about pot holes too much.
