Commercial · St. Augustine, FL
A concrete curb and gutter system controls runoff, protects pavement edges, and keeps parking lots and drive lanes from raveling out. St. Augustine Concreters has served St. Augustine since 2016, forming and pouring commercial and residential curb lines that drain correctly and hold up to traffic.
Every curb and gutter pour starts with layout and a stable base. We confirm flow line and top-of-curb elevations, then excavate to firm subgrade, proof-roll soft spots, and place compacted limerock or FDOT-style base where needed (typically 4-8 inches in lifts). Forms are pinned straight and braced to resist bowing, and we install dowels or tie-ins when tying new curb into existing concrete to control differential movement and reduce joint separation.
Florida rain, sandy soils, and heavy storm events mean curb and gutter must move water without ponding or undermining the slab edge. We shape the gutter pan for positive drainage, set control joints at practical intervals, and use tooled edges to reduce chipping from tires and plows. Finish is selected for function, including broom-finish for traction on pans and sidewalks, or a clean steel-trowel on vertical faces where specified, with curing practices that limit rapid moisture loss and surface checking.
St. Augustine customers choose us because we build curb lines that match the site plan and work in the real world after the first downpour. Our crews handle concrete forming, reinforcement placement, grading corrections, and demo and haul-off when replacing broken sections. You get a licensed and insured contractor who communicates clearly, protects adjacent asphalt and landscaping, and schedules pours to minimize disruption for businesses, tenants, and deliveries.
Before we leave, we walk the pour with you to verify lines, slopes, jointing, and transitions at inlets, returns, and curb ramps. We explain cure times, sawcut timing when applicable, and when the area is ready for foot traffic and vehicles. You receive a written estimate up front, straightforward change orders if scope shifts, and a finished concrete curb and gutter installation that is cleaned up and ready for striping, asphalt tie-ins, or final grading.
Yes. We provide a free written estimate that outlines demolition (if needed), base prep, reinforcement, concrete thickness, finish, joints, and timeline.
Yes. We handle saw-cutting and demolition, haul-off, re-grading, compacted base installation, and a new pour with proper jointing and drainage.
When permits or inspections apply, we help coordinate the process and build to applicable Florida Building Code requirements for the scope of work.
Yes. We set forms to match door thresholds and tie into existing concrete where appropriate, using proper joints and dowels when needed to manage movement.
Avoid heavy loads too soon, keep the surface clean, and follow our curing guidance for the first 7-28 days. If sealed, use mild cleaners and avoid harsh chemicals that can degrade the sealer.
Concrete curb and gutter is more than a border, it is a drainage and pavement-protection system that directs stormwater, stabilizes pavement edges, and defines parking and drive lanes. St. Augustine Concreters installs and replaces curb and gutter for commercial sites, HOAs, and homeowners, with careful grade control, solid base prep, and finishes built for Florida weather.
A durable curb and gutter installation starts with the ground. We excavate to suitable material, proof-roll when needed, and build the base in compacted lifts to limit rutting and future cracking. For replacements, we sawcut and remove failed sections cleanly so the new concrete ties in tight and does not leave broken edges along asphalt. Where plans call for it, we place steel reinforcement and set dowels into existing concrete to help adjacent slabs move together.
Getting drainage right is the whole point. We set grades so the gutter pan carries water to the intended inlet locations and does not trap water along the curb face. Proper jointing helps manage shrinkage and keeps cracking predictable, and edge tooling helps prevent spalls where tires ride the curb line. If your project includes curb ramps or sidewalk connections, we can coordinate slopes and transitions so the finished surfaces meet practical access and safety needs.
Whether you need new curb for a parking lot, replacement of crumbling sections, or added gutter to control runoff, we keep the process straightforward. We provide a free written estimate, confirm pour access and staging, and review cure times so you can plan traffic and operations. The result is a concrete curb and gutter system that looks clean, drains correctly, and holds up to daily use.
