Abstract: A seal-cover is provided for paving material filled pavement openings such as pot holes. A hot mix (used in good weather) or a cold mix (used in bad weather) of asphalt paving repair material is used to fill a hole in the existing pavement. A coating or layer of tar is put down covering the asphalt fill in a pavement hole and extending outward beyond the hole periphery to the extent of being approximately eight inches larger than the hole patch. A roofing material such as roofing tar paper, an asphalt or tar and fiberglass coating material or even a vinyl flooring material slightly less area than the layer of tar is then laid down over the layer of tar previously laid down. This water tight construction over asphalt fill repaired pot holes, keeping water out of patch areas, greatly aids in new repair standing up to heavy traffic and thereby greatly extends patch life running to many years.
