What We Do

Our Services

From raw site grading to finished asphalt — every service backed by 30 years of field experience, our own equipment fleet, and California's most comprehensive contractor license stack.

Why Choose QGP

What Sets Us Apart

Most LA paving contractors carry one or two licenses and rent their equipment. We're built differently.

🔧

We Own Our Equipment

No middlemen. No subcontractor markup on heavy iron. Our crews operate our own machines — which means tighter schedules, lower costs, and direct accountability on every job.

📄

5-License Stack

Most contractors carry one or two classifications. QGP holds A, B, C-12, C-21, and C-36 — qualifying us for virtually every civil construction scope from grading through utilities. Rare in this market.

📊

Engineering-First Approach

Every job starts with the ground, not the asphalt. We read soil conditions, drainage patterns, and compaction specs before touching the site. That's why our pavement holds up where others fail.

🏛️

Government-Grade on Every Job

Private driveway or public works contract — every project is built to Caltrans and LA County spec. We don't run two tiers of quality. There's one standard.

About QGP, Inc.

30 Years.
One Standard.

Quality Grading and Paving is a family-owned and operated business out of Carson, California — in the ground since 1993. From the start, we've done one thing: show up, do the work right, and stand behind it. That track record is why municipalities, commercial property managers, and private clients across LA County keep calling us back.

Before any machine hits the ground, we read the soil conditions, drainage patterns, compaction requirements, and spec sheets. That's what separates pavement that lasts 25 years from pavement that fails in 10.

We own our equipment and employ our crews directly. We don't sub out core work. The people who quote the job build the job.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got Questions?

Answers to the most common questions about asphalt paving, grading, government contracting, and working with QGP in Los Angeles County.

Yes. Free, no-obligation site visits and written estimates for all grading, paving, sealing, and striping projects. Call 310-819-8072 or submit the form below and we'll respond within one business day.
Yes. License No. 643034 with A, B, C-12, C-21, and C-36 — qualifying us for public agency, DOT, and municipal infrastructure work. DIR-registered for prevailing wage compliance. We provide prequalification documents same day.
All of Los Angeles County from our Carson headquarters — Long Beach, Torrance, Compton, Gardena, Hawthorne, Inglewood, El Segundo, Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach, Lomita, Wilmington, San Pedro, and throughout the South Bay and LA Basin.
20–30 years with proper installation, correct base preparation, and adequate drainage. Seal coating every 3–5 years and prompt crack repair extend life significantly and reduce long-term maintenance costs.
Yes. All striping includes ADA-compliant accessible parking layouts, access ramp markings, and van-accessible stall designations per California Title 24 and federal ADA requirements. We provide documentation of compliance.
Absolutely. Open Saturday 9am–7pm and Sunday 9am–8pm. Many commercial seal coating and striping jobs are scheduled specifically over weekends so tenants and customers experience zero disruption.
Seal coating is a protective coal-tar or asphalt-based emulsion applied to existing pavement to block UV rays, water infiltration, and chemical damage. If your lot is faded or showing minor cracking, seal coating is the most cost-effective step you can take. Recommended every 3–5 years.
Call 310-819-8072 or use the quote form and select "Government / Public Works." We'll respond within one business day with our prequalification documents, DIR number, and any additional forms your agency requires.
An overlay places new asphalt over existing pavement — cost-effective when the base is still structurally sound. Full-depth paving removes and replaces everything down to the subgrade — required when the base has failed. We assess which approach is right for your pavement and budget.
We offer structured payment schedules for larger commercial and government projects. For residential projects, payment terms are discussed at estimate. Contact us to discuss options that fit your project budget and timeline.
