About Top Patch

Top Patch® is the Patent Pending revolutionary pavement repair product. Instead of using asphalt binders, Top Patch utilizes a high-performance resin to bond chemically to both asphalt and concrete. In fact, it is so strong it boasts a 3 year warranty. Top Patch’s rapid-fast curing time, enables your pavement repair to be traffic ready with in 30 minutes of completion. Top Patch is manufactured in Tampa, FL.

Top Patch’s goal was simple, but not easy: Make a pothole repair product that pours and handles like wet concrete, with the durability and longevity of hot mix in an easy-to-use bucket that can be installed even when temperatures dip below freezing. Unlike, cold patch, Top Patch was made to last the life of the road.  To test our product we designed it to a minimum thickness based upon our aggregate. We currently use aggregate that allows about 1/4” thickness without any loss of adhesion. Next, we sent it to an independent third-party lab (Future Labs) to be tested. When testing Top Patch’s adhesion on worn asphalt (the paved road test standard), Top Patch’s adhesion held strong while the test standard failed. See Future Labs Results.
