Pasadena Asphalt Paving Company is the asphalt paving contractor Glendale homeowners and commercial property managers call for driveway paving, commercial lot resurfacing, and sealcoating - and we respond to new requests within one business day. Serving Glendale since 2016, we know how this city's hillside lots, clay soils, and seismic conditions affect pavement life.
Glendale has a significant commercial corridor along Brand Boulevard, Colorado Street, and San Fernando Road, where parking lots and loading areas take heavy daily traffic. Commercial asphalt paving keeps these high-use surfaces structurally sound and safe for customers and delivery vehicles.
Many Glendale homes were built between the 1920s and 1960s, and original concrete driveways have often cracked, shifted, or heaved over the decades. Replacing them with fresh asphalt provides a smoother, more durable surface that handles the city's summer heat and occasional ground movement far better than aging concrete.
Glendale's long, dry summers mean months of direct UV exposure that bakes the binder out of asphalt surfaces, leaving them brittle and prone to cracking. Sealcoating every three to five years slows oxidation, restores flexibility, and can add years to any driveway or lot without a full replacement.
Glendale's winter rain events are short but intense, and water that enters unsealed cracks in a driveway or parking lot erodes the base layer quickly. Potholes that form after the rainy season are a common problem throughout the city, and patching them early prevents the damage from spreading across a wider area.
Hillside properties near the Verdugo Mountains often struggle with water running down slopes and pooling against driveways or foundations during rain. Proper surface grading and channel drainage redirect that flow away from paved areas, protecting both the pavement and the structure underneath.
Seismic activity near the Verdugo Fault and soil movement from freeze-thaw cycles in Glendale's foothills create hairline cracks in asphalt surfaces over time. Crack sealing before the rainy season is the most cost-effective way to stop water from getting into the base and turning small surface flaws into full-depth failures.
Glendale sits at the junction of four major freeways and covers roughly 30 square miles, which means the city has a wide range of property types and conditions. The flat neighborhoods near downtown have dense blocks of mid-century homes and multi-unit buildings with shared driveways and parking areas. The hillside neighborhoods climbing toward the Verdugo Mountains have steep, narrow driveways where large equipment needs careful staging. A contractor who only works flat lots will not be prepared for a hillside job in Glendale.
The city also sits near the Verdugo Fault, which runs along the base of the Verdugo Mountains. Even minor seismic activity adds up over years and contributes to cracking in driveways and parking lots throughout Glendale. Combined with the thermal stress of hot summers and cold winter nights, and the runoff pressure from rain on hillside lots, asphalt in Glendale takes a harder beating than in flatter, more temperate parts of the region. Crews need to account for these conditions in material selection, base preparation, and drainage planning.
Our crew works throughout Glendale regularly, and the variety of the city keeps us on our toes. We work on 1920s bungalow driveways near downtown, steep hillside driveways in the neighborhoods above the 2 Freeway, and commercial parking lots along Brand Boulevard - and each type of job requires different planning. Glendale's Building and Safety Division handles permits for work that involves changing drainage or driveway footprints, and our team coordinates those requirements as part of the job.
Getting around Glendale means working around the 5, 2, 134, and 210 freeways, which border or pass through the city and affect traffic patterns on every major street. Brand Boulevard, Colorado Street, and San Fernando Road are the main commercial corridors, and we schedule commercial jobs to minimize disruption during peak hours. We also serve nearby Burbank and Pasadena, so we understand the full corridor of communities along the foothills and can move crews efficiently across the area.

We come to your Glendale property, walk the surface, and give you a written estimate with no obligation. We check the base condition, drainage, and any hillside access factors that affect scope and cost before we quote anything.

(213) 635-1499Glendale is one of the largest cities in Los Angeles County, covering roughly 30 square miles and home to well over 200,000 residents. The city grew rapidly as a streetcar suburb of Los Angeles in the early twentieth century, and a large share of its housing stock dates from the 1920s through the 1960s - bungalows, Spanish Colonial Revival homes, and ranch houses on flat lots near downtown, with older custom homes climbing the slopes toward the Verdugo Mountains. The downtown area around Brand Boulevard and the Americana at Brand is a regional commercial center, while neighborhoods like Montrose, near the northwest corner, have a quieter, small-town character.
The city is also a major employment hub, with large employers including Walt Disney Imagineering and DreamWorks Animation, and a large retail footprint anchored by the Glendale Galleria. This mix of white-collar workers and long-established homeowners means a community that values property maintenance and invests in keeping homes in good shape. Nearby La Canada Flintridge and Burbank are part of the broader foothill corridor we serve, and our crews move between all three communities regularly.
