Asphalt Paving in Wilmington, CA

Asphalt paving in Wilmington happens in one of the most industrial neighborhoods in Los Angeles. Phineas Banning acquired the land in 1858 to build a harbor for Los Angeles, and the city annexed Wilmington in 1909. The Wilmington Oil Field, discovered in 1932, is the third-largest oil field in the continental United States, at least eight major refineries operate in the area, and nearly 20 percent of Wilmington's land is taken up by refineries.

Truck yards and industrial lots

Yards near the port and refineries carry loaded trucks all day. We build heavy sections at gates, lanes and docks, and set up recurring saw-cut repair visits so failures do not spread.

Older homes

Wilmington had 942 residents in 1870 and about 53,815 in 2010. Its residential streets have many older homes with narrow driveways that need hand work and careful transitions.

Renters

About 61.5 percent of Wilmington's housing units are rented, so apartment lots are a large share of the residential work.

City of Los Angeles

Wilmington is part of the City of Los Angeles, so work at the street falls under city requirements. We confirm them before any apron or curb work.

Costs

HomeGuide lists saw-cut repairs at $4 to $12 per square foot; HomeAdvisor lists lot paving at $2 to $4.50. The written estimate is the price.

Recurring repairs

In yards with constant truck traffic, small failures turn into large ones quickly. We can schedule regular repair visits to cut out and rebuild failures while they are small, which costs less than letting them spread.

Apartment lots

With most homes rented, apartment lots are a large share of residential work. We rebuild failed zones, seal and restripe, phased for residents.

Concrete pads at docks

In yards where trailers drop in the same rows every day, landing gear presses into asphalt on warm afternoons. Concrete pads in those rows, with asphalt elsewhere, often last longest. We mark where that would pay off.
