Paving in Los Alamitos

Asphalt paving in Los Alamitos happens in a small city with deep roots. Lewellyn Bixby founded the town in 1896 to support a sugar-beet factory built by the Clark brothers, an industry that ended after economic shifts and a 1921 insect infestation. The city incorporated in 1960 and had 11,780 residents in 2020.

The base next door

A large part of the city is occupied by Joint Forces Training Base Los Alamitos, the former Navy air station that became a California National Guard reserve center in 1973. The remaining residential and commercial areas are compact.

Low and flat

Los Alamitos sits at about 23 feet. Flat ground needs deliberate slope so water reaches gutters and drains. Ponding on a driveway or lot is the most common complaint we fix here.

Renters and owners

About 44.4 percent of Los Alamitos homes are owner-occupied and 55.6 percent rented, so apartment lots are a big share of the work.

Costs

HomeGuide lists seal coating at $1 to $2 per square foot for driveways, and HomeAdvisor lists lot seal coating at $0.15 to $0.30. Repairs and regrading for ponding are priced by area.

Business lots

Los Alamitos has small retail centers and medical offices whose lots need regular patching, seal coat and restriping, scheduled around patients and customers.

Driveways

Older homes have driveways that have settled or cracked. We replace them with a compacted base and set the slope toward the street.

Apartment lots

With a renter majority, apartment lots are a big part of the work. We phase repairs so residents can still park, and restripe numbered stalls afterward.

Close to everything

Los Alamitos sits between Cypress, Seal Beach and Long Beach, and we work across that area regularly.

Weather and timing

With most rain falling in a few winter storms, we schedule paving and seal coating for the dry months and crack sealing in fall.
