Curbing that Borders on Perfection
Adding a border to your parking lot or road, concrete curb and gutter is the standard in Area Metropolitan. Do it
the right way with V&H Contractor. Our experienced team, attention to detail, and full-service solutions will make
your curb or gutter project a breeze.
Benefits of Curbing:
– Define water flow to points of collection, such as storm drains, to keep your parking lot from flooding and
to help reduce erosion.
– Strengthen the edge of your asphalt, protecting shoulders by keeping traffic contained.
– Provide a protective barrier against steep lot drop-offs.
Considerations & Corrections
Attention to grade is vitally important to laying new curb and gutter. Not only for the flow along the curb, but the
flow between receiving and spill points through other surfaces such as the parking lot and landscape areas. It is not
unusual for us to arrive at a job in which the curb and gutter was already placed by others, that we find grade
issues that involve replacing curb that creates problems for the new surfaces.
Handicap areas out of spec or not enough pitch to the drains through the parking lot are also common problems.
Different surfaces need different percentages of pitch to keep water flow moving at a reasonable rate. As with all
concrete applications, quality of craftsmanship varies considerably from contractor to contractor. We can assure
you that our team is ready to address any previous issues with your curb and prevent any future ones!
