Bedrock Pacifica Asphalt Paving is the asphalt paving contractor South San Francisco residents and businesses call for driveways, resurfacing, crack sealing, and parking lot work. We have served the South City area since 2018 and know the clay soils, hillside terrain, and fog-driven wear patterns that make this city different from others on the Peninsula.
Many South San Francisco driveways and parking surfaces were laid decades ago and now show widespread cracking and surface wear. Our asphalt resurfacing overlays give an aging surface a fresh structural layer without the cost and disruption of a full tear-out, restoring function and curb appeal quickly.
South San Francisco homes built in the 1950s through 1970s often have driveways that are original to the house - cracked, heaved by clay soil movement, and past patching. We install new driveways with proper base prep that accounts for the area's soil type and lot grades, whether flat or steeply sloped.
South City winters bring concentrated rain that finds every open crack in your pavement and starts destroying the base underneath. Sealing cracks with a hot-applied filler before November is the most cost-effective thing a South San Francisco homeowner can do to extend pavement life.
The marine layer and bay-side salt air in South San Francisco oxidize unprotected asphalt faster than in inland cities. Sealcoating every 3 to 5 years creates a barrier against moisture, salt, and UV that significantly slows surface aging and prevents premature cracking.
South San Francisco has substantial commercial activity near its biotech campuses and along El Camino Real, and those properties demand durable, well-maintained pavement. We handle commercial parking lots and access drives built for the heavier traffic that industrial and office corridors generate.
Hillside neighborhoods in South San Francisco, from Westborough to Buri Buri, funnel significant stormwater runoff across driveways and hardscape during winter rains. We install drainage systems that redirect that water before it undermines your pavement base and causes premature failure.
South San Francisco carries a lot of traffic for a city its size. The biotech campuses near Oyster Point, the commercial corridors along El Camino Real, and the truck routes that run through the industrial zones near the bay all put more wear on local streets and parking areas than typical suburban use would. For property owners here, that means pavement degrades faster than the average, and staying ahead of maintenance is the only way to avoid expensive full replacements down the road. The combination of clay-heavy soils, marine moisture, and occasional seismic activity adds to that pressure in ways that someone coming in from outside the area might not account for.
The terrain variation across South San Francisco also matters. Properties in hillside neighborhoods like Westborough and Buri Buri deal with graded lots, retaining walls, and runoff patterns that make paving work more involved than on the flatlands near the bay. The San Andreas Fault runs along the hills to the west of the city, and the micro-movement it generates over years is a real factor in why older concrete and asphalt flatwork cracks in South City in ways that seem disproportionate to the surface age. Contractors who work this area regularly know to check base condition carefully and to spec drainage that accounts for both the hillside runoff and the seasonal soil movement from the clay underneath.
Our crew works throughout South San Francisco regularly, and we understand the local conditions that affect asphalt paving work here. South City sits between San Bruno Mountain to the north and the bay to the east, and that geography shapes everything about how properties are laid out and how water moves across them. El Camino Real is the main surface corridor we use to reach jobs across the city, but we also know the hillside streets in Westborough and Buri Buri well enough to bring equipment in efficiently without damaging curbs or narrow access points. When projects require permits from the City of South San Francisco, we coordinate with the Public Works Division directly so nothing holds up the schedule.
The hillside sign above town is visible from Highway 101, and it is a good reminder that South City is its own distinct place, not just another Peninsula stop between San Francisco and San Jose. The mix of mid-century residential neighborhoods near Grand Avenue and the newer commercial development around Oyster Point means we handle both older residential driveways and larger commercial paving projects here, often in the same week. Property owners in neighboring San Bruno, CA and Brisbane, CA also call us regularly, and we move between all three cities throughout the week.
Reach us by phone or through the contact form and describe what you are dealing with. We respond within 1 business day and schedule a site visit at a time that fits your schedule.
We visit your property, check the pavement condition and base integrity, assess drainage, and tell you exactly what the work involves and what it will cost. No pressure, no obligation, and no surprise additions later.
We coordinate around the weather and your calendar, pull any permits required from South San Francisco Public Works, and handle base prep and drainage work before any new asphalt goes down.
Most South San Francisco residential jobs are done in one to two days. We compact, clean edges, and clear the site completely. Allow 24 to 48 hours of curing before driving on fresh asphalt.
We serve all of South San Francisco and reply within 1 business day. No obligation, no pressure.
(650) 516-3242South San Francisco is a city of about 65,000 to 70,000 people in San Mateo County, known locally as South City. It sits in a valley between San Bruno Mountain to the north and the hills of the Coast Range to the west, with San Francisco Bay to the east. The city is famous for the large white letters spelling out "The Industrial City" set into the hillside above town, visible for miles from Highway 101 - one of the most recognizable landmarks on the San Francisco Peninsula. South San Francisco developed rapidly after World War II, and most of its residential neighborhoods were built out between the 1940s and the 1970s, giving the city a distinctly mid-century character with ranch-style homes on modest lots. Learn more about the city at the South San Francisco city website.
The city has several distinct neighborhoods. Westborough and Buri Buri are hillside residential areas with winding streets and sloped lots. The downtown district is anchored by Grand Avenue, the historic main street where City Hall sits alongside local shops and restaurants. Near the bay, the Oyster Point area has been transformed into one of the most active biotech and life sciences campuses in the world, drawing tens of thousands of workers into South San Francisco each day. This mix of mid-century housing and major commercial development makes South City a genuinely busy place, with the infrastructure demands that come with it. Our neighbors in Daly City, CA to the north and San Bruno, CA to the south share similar housing stock and many of the same paving and maintenance challenges.
