Concrete Curbs & Gutters in Lexington, MO

A curb and gutter passes when the flow line holds a continuous fall to the inlet, the line and grade match the survey, and the joints align with the pavement so it drains and takes the load. In Lexington the load runs across the river and the ground under the old core is giving way.

MO-13 is a primary Missouri River crossing, so heavy trucks brake and turn at the MO-13 and US-24 junction, while the historic downtown holds 19th-century architecture and 50-year-old lots with decaying original subbase.

Lexington sits on a loess-capped Missouri River bluff — wind-blown silt over the bluff that migrates when it saturates; per MoDNR mapping this is bluff loess above the river corridor. On a grade that migration undercuts a base that isn't drained, so we drain the run, protect the edge, and compact the silt before we pour. We run slipform curb on the long corridor runs and place air-entrained 4,000-PSI concrete with joints saw-cut to the pavement, against the freeze-thaw the NOAA record shows for Lafayette County and the winter salt off MO-13.

We build the same curb and gutter across the I-70 corridor — in Oak Grove, Grain Valley, and Blue Springs. Ford rates 4.9 stars across 29 Google reviews for concrete flatwork across the KC metro.
