Asphalt Paving in Gardena, CA

Asphalt paving in Gardena works in a city with a distinctive history. Gardena was nicknamed Berryland for its acres of berry farms, and Japanese American families settled there throughout its history. It incorporated in 1930, and from 1936 to 1980 it held a local monopoly on legal card rooms, whose taxes made up nearly a third of the city budget. Population rose from 14,405 in 1950 to 35,943 in 1960 and 61,027 in 2020.

Older homes and driveways

Gardena's postwar growth left many homes with driveways now sixty-plus years old. We replace those with a compacted base and slope set toward the street.

Apartments and small businesses

About 52.7 percent of Gardena's homes are rented, and the city has many small commercial lots along its boulevards. Apartment and shop lots need repairs at entrances and trash enclosures, sealcoat and restriping, phased so residents and customers can park.

Small, dense city

Gardena covers about 5.9 square miles at 49 feet elevation. Lots are close together and often tight, so we plan equipment access at the walk-through.

Card clubs and casinos

Gardena's card rooms and casinos have large lots that operate around the clock. We schedule work in sections at the quietest hours.

Costs

HomeGuide lists pothole repairs at $100 to $400 and lot sealcoat at $0.15 to $0.30 per square foot (HomeAdvisor). The written estimate is the price.

Shared driveways

Many Gardena lots have been split into several units with one shared driveway running to the back. Shared driveways carry traffic from every unit and fail where cars turn. We can rebuild only the failed areas or replace the whole driveway, with one proposal the owners can divide.

Restriping and ADA

Shop lots open to the public need 2010 ADA counts for accessible spaces when restriped. We check counts and slopes before painting.

What the estimate covers

Each line on a Gardena estimate is priced separately: demolition, base, asphalt thickness, edges, sealcoat and striping. Owners of small lots can choose to do repairs now and sealcoat later, or the other way around, and see exactly what each costs.
