Commercial · Port St. Lucie, FL
Port St Lucie Concreters has served Port St. Lucie since 2016, building and replacing concrete curb and gutter systems that control runoff, protect pavement edges, and clean up the look of a property. We handle new installs, tear-out and replacement, curb returns and radii, driveway aprons, and tie-ins to existing asphalt or concrete.
Good concrete curb and gutter work starts with layout and a stable base. We verify grades and drainage intent, set stringlines, and mark curb reveals, radii, and transitions, then sawcut and remove failed sections when replacement is needed. Subgrade gets proof-rolled and reworked as required, then we place and compact limerock or DOT-type base to a uniform thickness and slope, with careful attention to the gutter line so water actually moves. Forms, stakes, and steel are set to hold line and elevation, including dowels into existing slabs where a structural tie-in is required, so the curb does not separate or settle at joints.
In Florida heat and sudden rain, timing and curing matter as much as placement. We place a properly proportioned ready-mix, consolidate, then shape the curb face and gutter pan to consistent profile, matching the existing section when tying in. Joints are planned and tooled or sawcut at practical spacing to manage shrinkage cracking, with expansion material where the curb meets sidewalks, aprons, or other restrained concrete. Finish options are selected for function, not flash, including broom-finish in the gutter for traction and clean edging on the curb face, then we apply curing practices that reduce surface dusting and random cracking. Where drainage performance is critical, we check flow line continuity and adjust during forming and placement rather than after the fact.
Port St. Lucie customers choose us because we run the job like a concrete crew, not a patch crew. You get clear communication on line, grade, and tie-in details, plus practical recommendations on curb type, radii, and apron transitions so vehicles clear without breaking edges. Our crews come with the right equipment for removal and prep, including concrete saws, skid-steer support, compactors, and forming systems that hold profile and reveal. We focus on durable details that keep curb and gutter working, tight joints, correct base compaction, proper consolidation, and clean tie-ins to existing pavement.
Before we pour, we walk the layout with you, confirm elevations at driveway crossings, and review how water will exit the gutter line toward inlets, swales, or approved discharge points. After placement, we do a final walkthrough to verify alignment, curb reveal, smooth transitions, and joint locations, then explain cure time, when it is safe for traffic, and how to avoid early edge damage. You receive a clean, finished concrete curb and gutter installation with controlled joints, consistent profile, and a base built to resist settlement. If the project includes demolition, we also handle haul-off and leave the site broom-clean and ready for paving, striping, or landscaping.

Yes. We can saw-cut, break, remove, and haul off existing slabs, then rebuild the base, forms, and new concrete. Disposal and access logistics are included in the written scope.
Sometimes, but it is not always a good long-term fix. Overlays require sound concrete, proper surface prep, bonding method, and attention to drainage and elevation, we will inspect and recommend replacement when the base or slab is failing.
Yes. We evaluate slope, downspout discharge, and runoff paths, then correct grade and pitch during replacement or new work. In some cases we add swales, drains, or adjust adjoining grades to keep water moving away from structures.
Common options include broom-finish, light broom with edge detail, stamped patterns, and exposed aggregate depending on the desired look and slip resistance. We can also discuss color hardeners, release agents for stamping, and sealer selection for your use case.
We use a crack-control plan that combines stable base prep, appropriate reinforcement, and properly spaced control joints. Joints are tooled or saw-cut at the right time so cracking is encouraged to occur where it is least visible.
