Asphalt Paving in Lomita, CA

Asphalt paving in Lomita fits a city that kept its independence by incorporating. Lomita once spanned about 7 square miles before neighbors annexed much of it, and it incorporated on June 30, 1964 to stop further annexation. Today it covers 1.91 square miles and had 20,921 residents in 2020, nearly 11,000 per square mile. The Torrance airport, now Zamperini Field, was once Lomita Fields.

Apartments and homes

About 55.4 percent of Lomita homes are rented. Apartment lots need repairs, sealcoat and restriping; single-family homes need driveway replacement where bases have failed.

Small lots, tight access

Lomita's lots are compact, and many driveways are short. We plan equipment access and use smaller rollers where needed.

Elevation

Lomita sits at about 95 feet, a little higher than Carson, on gently sloping ground toward the Palos Verdes hills. Driveways still need a planned path for water.

Costs

Small jobs often carry minimums; HomeGuide notes some contractors set $2,000 or more for new driveways and $100 to $250 for repairs. Grouping work helps.

Business lots

Lomita's commercial corridors along Pacific Coast Highway and Narbonne Avenue have small lots that need patching, sealcoat and restriping. We schedule work around customers.

Restriping and ADA

Lots open to the public need accessible spaces under the 2010 ADA Standards when they are restriped. For a lot of 1 to 25 spaces, that means at least one van-accessible space.

Driveway care

After a new driveway, wait three to six months before sealing, then reseal every few years once it fades.

Gently sloped ground

Lomita's land rises slowly toward the Palos Verdes hills, so many driveways have a modest grade. That helps drainage, but water still needs a clear path to the street, especially at the garage where downspouts often empty. We set the slope and edges with that in mind.
