Paving on the Peninsula
Asphalt paving in Rolling Hills Estates deals with long, sloped driveways. The city incorporated on September 18, 1957, as Los Angeles County's 60th municipality, sits at about 469 feet on the north side of the Palos Verdes Peninsula, and has many horse paths. About 89.8 percent of its homes are owner-occupied.
Slopes and length
Long driveways need a planned crown or cross-slope, supported edges and drainage at the bottom. Steep sections need compaction in lifts.
Ground movement
The peninsula has a documented history of landslides. The Peartree Lane landslide destroyed several homes in July 2023. On any property showing signs of movement, we tell you what we see before recommending new pavement.
Equestrian properties
Horse properties often need driveways that carry trailers. We build heavier sections where trailers run.
Costs
HomeGuide adds 15 to 30 percent for slopes and curves. The written estimate is the price.
Private roads
Some properties share private roads. We can price a shared road as one proposal for owners to divide.
Drainage
On hillsides, water needs a planned path. Swales, culverts and drains keep runoff from undercutting pavement.
Maintenance
Long driveways are expensive to replace. Crack sealing and sealcoat every few years cost much less and extend their life.
Access
Long, narrow driveways need planning for where trucks turn and unload. We check at the walk-through.
Costs
HomeGuide lists a 1,000-square-foot driveway at about $5,000 to $12,000 nationally and adds 15 to 30 percent for slopes and curves. Long, winding driveways on the peninsula often fall at the higher end. We price each section so you can see where the cost comes from.
Edges along trails and landscaping
Many properties border horse paths, planted slopes or natural areas. Driveway edges next to them need support so they do not crumble, and runoff needs a controlled outlet so it does not erode the slope below.
