Asphalt Contractor in Hillside Torrance, California
Two decades of working with asphalt
Posted on Chao G.Verified Bay Cities Paving completed a new parking project for a self-service laundromat in Wilmington.The quality of the parking work was very good and many of the road damages were repaired. Many customers praised the work after seeing it. We sincerely thank them for their work.Posted on Alex S.Verified We are an HOA in Dana Point, Ca. Recently, we had Bay Cities re-seal our streets. They did a great job. On time starting their work, polite workers and very approachable. They were not the lowest of our 6 bids, but the best value for money. If a company gives you a price that is much lower than the others, beware. There must be a reason for it. And read the fine print. When a company says, "to remove up to 2 inches of asphalt to fix cracks", it sound good. But, when you think about it, that could mean just an of an inch, which will allow a crack to reappear in 6 months. Our neighboring HOA did exactly that and are now regretting it. Thank you Alan of Bay Cities Paving. We are happy to share our experience with othersPosted on Lisa D.Verified Alan and his team are great to work with, and do excellent work. They are also fast and very responsive. I cannot say enough nice things about them. I have used them a couple of times over the years and will continue to do so. Very pleased! Thank you BCP!Posted on diana k.Verified Cannot say enough great things about Alan, Michelle and their team. The team resealed a 40 year old driveway for my mom. From the very first interaction to ask for a quote, the team was fast, responsive and professional. Their quote was by far the best value but also the most detailed as far as the competition. Michelle was so communicative on text, phone, and email. They sent over copies of their business license, workers comp, and a contract. I had full faith in them from the first conversation and they did not disappoint. Thank you!Posted on Sami A.Verified BCP repaved the parking lots of two of our commercial properties. When the work didn't quite turn out as we expected, Alan was extremely responsive and willing to redo a portion of it. He was fantastic to work with as he is flexible and was able to exceed our expectations. We will definitely be calling him again when the need arises!Posted on Ken G.Verified We hired Bay Cities Paving to regrade a difficult spot outside of a commercial property we own in Torrance. We've had flooding problems there for years, and another paver had failed to fix the problem before. Bay Cities did a great job and even with all the rain we've just had, no flooding! Water is now running off toward the drain, as it should. In addition to doing good work, Alan was responsive, attentive, prompt and courteous. Will be using them again for other projects, for sure.Posted on Adriana P.Verified Bay Cities Paving recoated our business's parking lot and patio along with a resurface. Alan and the team are professional, quick to respond and did a fabulous job. Friendly, communicative and great prices! We were given a proper quote with full details and all information pertaining to the company with terms and conditions along with references. They were able to schedule the work soon after and everything was done well and in the time quoted. I highly recommend using them as we surely will again here at Baur Films, Inc!Posted on Robin M.Verified So happy we went with Bay City Paving to do the driveway for our rental. An awesome job and a great guy! Alan is a great personality! So personable, we feel like we've known him forever! But what I really like is that he's so professional! The scope of work is detailed and also shows license, insurance, Etc. Very detailed information and I LOVE that when it comes to any construction job. Thanks Alan, we are both happy with finished driveway and sure our tenant will be also, when he returns from his Coast Guard duties. Go with Bay City Paving Inc. You'll be happy you did!!!!!Posted on Marlon W.Verified I must say...Bay City Paving is great! I must say I shopped around quite a bit. Alan is very informative. No pressure. Let alone came down to provide me with a free estimate in a timely matter. 1-2 days lead time, while others took over a week just to respond. We have an automotive repair shop that needed a new 2 post lift. Alan and his crew work quick with no time to spare. One day job. Got us in the following week. If not same week. Let alone are these guys great. I needed a bit more work. With no hesitation. The guys took care of me. No question asked. They went the extra mile without charging me a dime. Thanks again Alan and his crew. I am your customer for life!Posted on Barry H.Verified If I could give 6 stars, I would. My project was repair of some large cracks and heaving of a sloped driveway. I got 4 estimates. BCP was in the middle as to price. BCP's estimate however was the most complete and thorough document I've ever seen for this type of thing. The estimate went over exactly what was to be done, but also went into great detail about things that might be found during the job which would require an increased cost. Alan noted that when they got into the job, the old cement and rebar was much thicker than expected and required different equipment to remove. The job was completed the next day and the final cost was exactly the estimate cost. Job crew were wonderful and I would use them again for any work in the future. I give them my highest recommendation without reservation!

Your Neighborhood Paving Experts
Hillside Torrance is one of those neighborhoods where you really notice the roads. All those winding streets that climb up and down? They take a beating over time. If you live near Calle Mayor or up around Newton Street, you know what we mean. The hills give you great views, but they also mean your driveway works harder than most.
This part of Torrance has beautiful older homes, tree lined streets, and that quiet residential feel people love. You’ve got Entradero Park nearby where kids play, and you’re close enough to Pacific Coast Highway that getting around is easy. But with all that comes the need for solid asphalt work. Driveways crack. Streets develop potholes. That’s just what happens when you’ve got slopes, weather changes, and years of cars going up and down.
That’s where we come in. Bay Cities Paving has been helping folks in Hillside Torrance keep their properties looking good for decades. Whether you need a driveway fixed or something bigger, we’ve seen it all in this neighborhood.
About Bay Cities Paving
We’re a family owned asphalt contractor that’s been doing this for over 30 years right here in Lomita and Torrance. Started small, grew with the community, and now we handle everything from residential driveways to commercial parking lots.
Yes, we specialize in asphalt paving. But that’s not all we do. Our team also works as a demolition contractor when old surfaces need to come out first. We’re a full service construction company, so we can handle the site prep, the grading, all of it. Need junk removal after we tear out that old concrete? We’ve got you covered. And as an excavating contractor, we can dig into those hillside properties without causing problems for your landscaping.
When you work with us in Hillside Torrance, you get a crew that knows the area. We know which streets are narrow. We know where parking gets tight. And we definitely know how to work on those sloped driveways without making a mess of your yard.
We Know This Neighborhood
Here’s the thing about working in Hillside Torrance. Every job is a little different because of the terrain. We’ve repaved driveways on Newton that had serious cracks from all the uphill pressure. We’ve fixed residential streets near Anza Avenue where tree roots had started pushing up through the asphalt. And we’ve done parking lot work for small businesses down closer to Lomita Boulevard.
The homes here are established, which means the asphalt is often original or pretty old. When someone calls us, they usually need more than just a patch job. They want it done right so it lasts another 20 years.
One customer off Calle Mayor told us: “I was worried about my steep driveway. They made it look brand new and it’s held up perfectly through two winters now.” Another person near Entradero Park said: “Fast, clean, and they knew exactly what they were doing. Didn’t damage my garden or leave a mess.”
Our team is trained, licensed, and insured. We follow safety practices because nobody wants issues down the road. And honestly? We take pride in the work. This is our community too.
Where We Work Around Here
We cover all of Hillside Torrance and the surrounding areas. That includes everything from the streets up near Calle de Castellana down to the flatter parts closer to Sepulveda Boulevard. We work throughout Lomita, over in Harbor City, and across Torrance.
You’ll see us on those winding residential roads, in the neighborhoods near Rolling Hills Prep School, and anywhere between Pacific Coast Highway and the 405. If you’re near local spots like the Lomita Railroad Museum or Del Amo Fashion Center, we’re in your area all the time.
We know how to navigate the tight turns. We know which times of day have less traffic. And we know this neighborhood well enough that we can give you real advice about what your property needs.
Tips for Hillside Torrance Residents
A few things you should know if you’re thinking about asphalt work in this area.
Parking can be tight on these streets. We usually bring our equipment in early morning when it’s easier to set up. If you’ve got a sloped driveway, we’ll need to check the drainage before we start. Water runoff is a big deal on hills, and we want to make sure your new asphalt doesn’t develop problems later.
Also, some of these older properties have quirky access. Maybe your driveway is narrow or you’ve got mature trees close to the edges. We work around that stuff all the time. Just let us know what we’re dealing with and we’ll figure it out.
Timing matters too. Summer is busy season, so if you want work done before fall, it’s smart to call ahead. And in this neighborhood, permits sometimes come into play depending on what you’re doing. We can help you sort through that.
Why People Trust Us
After 30 years as a family business in Lomita and Torrance, we’ve built our reputation on doing what we say we’ll do. Show up on time. Do clean work. Leave your property looking better than we found it.
Choosing the right contractor matters. If you’re weighing your options, there are helpful tips for selecting an asphalt contractor that can guide your decision. For us, it comes down to experience, proper licensing, and a track record in the community.
We stand behind our work with solid guarantees. If something’s not right, we fix it. Our crews follow safety standards because that protects you and protects us. And we’re just friendly people to work with, which honestly makes the whole process easier.
