What We Pave in Wilmington

Built for the
Harbor's Heaviest Traffic

Wilmington sits next to the Port of Los Angeles. Truck traffic, yards, and industrial sites wear asphalt out faster than almost anywhere in the county, so the base underneath matters more than the surface on top.

Truck & Container Yards

Thicker asphalt sections on a compacted base, sized for loaded trucks, chassis, and forklifts, so the yard doesn't rut and pothole within a season.

Industrial & Port-Support Sites

Warehouses, shops, and facilities along Alameda Street and the harbor corridor. Paving, repair, and drainage under our A, C-12, and C-21 licenses.

Commercial Lots

Retail and office lots along Pacific Coast Highway, Avalon Boulevard, and Anaheim Street. Repair, sealcoating, and ADA striping, phased to stay open.

Asphalt Repair

Saw-cut patching and pothole repair with hot asphalt, plus crack filling. Truck traffic turns small cracks into potholes fast, so early repair saves money.

Apartments & Driveways

Shared lots for apartment buildings and residential driveways, with the base and slope fixed so water drains away from buildings.

Public Works

DIR-registered and prevailing-wage compliant for public paving, curb, and storm drain work, as a prime or as the paving subcontractor.

Services in Wilmington

Full Scope, One Contractor

We don't sub out the work. QGP crews handle grading through final striping, with one point of contact from estimate to finished surface.

Why It Fails

Truck Traffic Breaks Weak Bases

A yard paved to parking-lot thickness won't survive loaded trucks. The asphalt flexes, cracks, lets water into the base, and potholes follow. We size the asphalt and base for the real loads and fix drainage first, so the surface lasts.

Wilmington Permits

Wilmington is part of the City of Los Angeles. Driveway approaches, curb, and sidewalk work in the public right-of-way go through the City of LA Bureau of Engineering. We handle the permits for our work.

FAQ

Wilmington Paving FAQ

Yes. Wilmington is minutes from our Carson headquarters at 550 E Carson Plaza Dr. We handle truck yard and industrial paving, commercial parking lots, asphalt repair, sealcoating, striping, and residential driveways throughout Wilmington, Harbor City, and San Pedro.
Yes. Yards that carry loaded trucks, chassis, and forklifts need a thicker asphalt section on a properly compacted base, not a parking-lot spec. We grade and compact the base and pave heavy-duty sections sized to the loads that actually use the yard, under our A, C-12, and C-21 licenses.
As of October 2026, asphalt overlay typically runs $3.25–$8 per square foot and full remove-and-replace $7–$14 per square foot. Heavy-duty truck yard sections cost more than standard lots because of the added asphalt and base thickness. Sealcoating runs $0.55–$2.25 per square foot. Every job is quoted in writing after a free site visit.
Wilmington is part of the City of Los Angeles. Work in the public right-of-way, such as driveway approaches, curb, and sidewalk, is permitted through the City of LA Bureau of Engineering. Paving on private property usually does not need a City permit unless it involves grading or drainage changes. We handle the permits for our work.
Near the harbor, salt air and heavy truck traffic wear asphalt faster. We recommend sealcoating every 2 to 3 years, with cracks filled first. Low-traffic lots with regular crack filling can stretch to 3 to 5 years.
