Davis sits on flat valley ground, and the city says its land slopes generally less than one percent. Winter rain has little reason to run off a driveway here. It pools in low spots and soaks into cracks. After a few wet seasons, the base under an older drive goes soft, and potholes follow.

Old North Davis and Old East Davis border downtown, inside the city's original 1917 limits. The city's history says Davis had about 20,000 residents in 1968, more than double its 1960 size. Building was pushing west across Highway 113, and Covell Park was going up north of Covell Boulevard. A builder on the west side was selling ranch-style models.
Census survey data shows how much of town dates from that wave. About 45 percent of Davis homes were built before 1980, and the 1970s added the most of any decade. A house from that era may still have its first driveway, or one patched many times over.
Old asphalt often breaks up at the edges, where it has the least support. Roots from big trees lift both asphalt and concrete. When the base below has failed, patches only buy time, and a tear-out with new base rock fixes the cause. When the base is still sound, resurfacing over the old asphalt can be the better choice.
The city places Davis on the Putah Creek Plain. Elevations fall from about 60 feet in the west to 25 feet in parts of the east. Spread across town, that is a very gentle grade. The city says its flood risk is mostly shallow sheet flooding from runoff in large storms.
Before Stonegate was built, the city's history called its land a summer dust bowl and a winter mud puddle. NOAA normals for Davis show about 19 inches of rain a year, most of it from November to March. July highs average about 93 degrees, and hot sun softens asphalt.
The NRCS soil survey maps silt loams under much of Davis. It also maps pockets of silty clay and clay in the north and west. Those clays swell when wet and shrink as they dry. We compact the subgrade and set the slope with grading and drainage work before any paving starts.
Your driveway is on your lot, but the apron that crosses the public sidewalk falls under city rules. The Davis Municipal Code requires a permit from the public works director for that work. The rule covers any sidewalk, curb, gutter or driveway built across a public sidewalk or curb.
The code caps a driveway across a public sidewalk at 12 feet wide and one per parcel. The city can approve more on a recommendation from the public works director. The apron may not reach past the face of the curb or into the gutter.
Sidewalk replacement and street cuts need an encroachment permit from Public Works Engineering and Transportation. A 2026 code update also puts sidewalk repair on the owner of the lot it fronts. The city's permit counter answers what a given job needs. We replace broken sidewalk and curb as part of our concrete flatwork service.
UC Davis calls Davis California's college town. More than half of Davis households rent, the Census Bureau's survey shows. Nearly a third of the city's homes sit in buildings of five or more units. That means plenty of apartment parking lots and shared drives that carry traffic every day.
For landlords, HOAs, churches and business owners, we resurface and patch lots in sections so people can still park. Striping and ADA stalls go back down when the parking lot paving is done.
The city calls the land around Davis some of the most productive farm ground in California. Under the city code, turning farm ground into new neighborhoods goes to a public vote. A farmhouse or orchard out there may sit at the end of a long private drive. We build those drives in gravel or pave them with hot mix asphalt.
