Inglewood Asphalt Paving Guide: Permits, Weather, and Local Pros

Inglewood has 2 paving businesses of its own on Main Street, so this hub also lists 8 real contractors based in Los Angeles and Torrance, all within about 9 miles. This guide covers the Public Works construction permit for driveways, what NOAA weather records say about timing, and published local price ranges for driveway paving and sealcoating.

What asphalt work costs in Inglewood

We only list numbers from published sources that give a Inglewood figure. All figures in this table come from HomeBlue's Inglewood cost guides, published in 2022, so expect current quotes to differ.

HomeBlue says its driveway figures include tearing out an old asphalt driveway. We did not find a sourced Inglewood figure for patching or crack repair, so ask each contractor to price that separately.

City permits and the public right-of-way

Paving that stays entirely on your own lot does not touch the public right-of-way, but the driveway, curb and sidewalk at the street do.

Construction permit. The City of Inglewood says a construction permit is needed for driveways, curb drains, sidewalks, curbs and gutters in the public right-of-way, with separate excavation and encroachment permits for digging or placing anything in the street (see Public Right-of-Way Permit). A copy of the contractor's license and proof of liability insurance are required before the permit is issued.

Plan review. The City's permit requirements sheet says plans for right-of-way work are reviewed in 5 to 10 business days, and inspections are requested 3 working days ahead.

Inglewood weather and the best time to pave

The closest long record we use for Inglewood is NOAA's 1991 to 2020 climate normals for the Hawthorne Municipal Airport station, about 2.4 miles from the city center. It averages 11.8 inches of precipitation a year over about 19 days with a tenth of an inch or more. February is the wettest month at 3 inches and June the driest at less than a tenth of an inch. From May through October each month averages under half an inch while staying warm, which is the most reliable stretch for work that needs dry ground.

August highs average 79 degrees and December lows average 49. The station logs about 9 days a year at 90 degrees or hotter. Freezing nights are rare, under one a year on average.

For sealcoat, SealMaster's guidance is 50 degrees and rising for 24 hours with no rain likely. At this station average lows stay at 50 or warmer in February through November. Every month averages lows of 40 or more with highs of 60 or more, so paving temperature is rarely the limit; rain is.
