Spring Valley Asphalt Paving Guide: Costs, Permits, and Timing

Spring Valley has hot summers, mild winters, and rain that falls mostly from November through March, and public roads are under the County of San Diego, which requires a construction permit for driveway work in its right-of-way. This guide covers County permit rules for Spring Valley driveways and how to time paving around the local weather. We did not find a published Spring Valley cost guide, so we do not list local prices; get written quotes from more than one contractor. The contractor list above shows paving pros who serve Spring Valley on Main Street.

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 driveway, sidewalk, and curb work at the street does.

County, not a city. Spring Valley is an unincorporated community, so public roads there are handled by the County of San Diego rather than a city. The County's Construction Permit application package says a Construction Permit and Traffic Control Permit are needed for work such as driveways in the County right-of-way, and construction permits are not issued over the counter.

Contacts. The County right-of-way permit counter is at (858) 694-2055. The permit owner must notify the County construction inspection team at (858) 694-3165 at least 24 hours before starting and finishing work.

Spring Valley weather and the best time to pave

Spring Valley does not have its own NOAA normals station, so we use nearby El Cajon. Its 1991 to 2020 normals show about 11.6 inches of rain a year. February is the wettest month at about 2.61 inches, and August is the driest at about 0.02 inches. About 9.7 inches falls from November through March.

August highs average about 89 degrees, and the station averages about 57 days a year at 90 degrees or hotter. Freezing nights are rare, about 2 a year, and January highs average about 69 degrees.

Our tip for Spring Valley homeowners: late spring through fall is the driest stretch for paving and sealcoating. Summer work should start early in the morning to beat the heat. Sealcoat needs dry days to cure, so plan around winter storms.
