Precision Concrete Slipform Paving
Southeast Wisconsin's climate is brutal on concrete infrastructure. We build for the extreme.
Why Standard Curbs Fail
It happens every spring. The snow melts, the rain pours, and temperatures violently swing above and below freezing. If a curb and gutter system lacks the proper sub-base compaction or wasn't poured with the right air-entrained mix, water infiltrates the micro-cracks. When that water freezes, it expands, causing the curb to heave, crack, and ultimately crumble.
The Trinity Advantage
To prevent these failures, Trinity Construction doesn't just "pour concrete." We engineer the pour. Our Miller Formless slipform machines handle every continuous curb and gutter project, extruding concrete into a consistent profile along a digitally guided stringline.
Engineered Benefits
- Flawless Drainage
The automated sensors guarantee that the slope and flow-line are mathematically perfect, eliminating standing water.
- Superior Compaction
The internal vibrators consolidate the concrete much denser than hand-pouring, resulting in a significantly stronger final product.
- Rapid Project Completion
We can pour thousands of linear feet per day, keeping your paving schedule aggressively on track.

Installation Process
When Trinity Construction is on your site, here is exactly what you can expect.
Laser-Precision Subgrade Preparation
We excavate the trench, install the required traffic bond (crushed aggregate), and compact it to strict density requirements. We then run a laser-guided grader to verify the sub-base is perfectly pitched.
A curb is only as strong as what's underneath it.
Automated Slipform Extrusion
Our crew sets the stringline using GPS/Total Station data. The Miller Formless machine follows this line, violently vibrating the low-slump, air-entrained concrete mix and extruding it into the flawless profile required by your engineering plans.
Curing and Joint Control
Within the critical curing window, our finishers apply membrane curing compounds to prevent rapid moisture loss. We then cut control joints at spec intervals to direct the natural expansion and contraction of the concrete.
Quality Assurance and Site Cleanup
Before we demobilize, our owner, Jerry Breske, or a senior foreman walks the entire poured length. We check the flow lines, verify the finish quality, and ensure the site is left cleaner than we found it, ready for your asphalt or landscaping crews.

Process
Our Process
Subgrade Excavation & Compaction
We excavate the curb trench to specification, install 6 inches of traffic bond crushed aggregate, and compact to 95% Modified Proctor density. A laser-guided grader verifies the sub-base pitch before any concrete is placed.
Stringline Setup & Machine Calibration
Our crew sets the stringline using GPS and Total Station survey data. The Miller Formless slipform machine is calibrated to follow this line precisely, ensuring the curb profile and flow-line match engineering plans to within fractions of an inch.
Automated Slipform Extrusion
The slipform machine extrudes low-slump, air-entrained concrete into the required profile. Internal vibrators consolidate the mix far denser than hand-pouring, creating a stronger, more uniform product that resists Wisconsin winters.
Curing & Control Joint Cutting
Within the critical curing window, membrane curing compounds are applied to prevent rapid moisture loss. Control joints are cut at 10-foot intervals to direct natural expansion and contraction, preventing random cracking.
In Depth
Commercial Curb and Gutter Expertise
When you need a commercial concrete company that understands the demands of large-scale site development in Southeast Wisconsin, Trinity Construction delivers. Our commercial concrete services cover every aspect of curb and gutter installation, from initial site grading through final curing and cleanup. With over 35 years of commercial concrete construction experience, owner Jerry Breske has overseen thousands of linear feet of curb work across Waukesha County, Milwaukee County, Racine County, and Kenosha County. Our Miller Formless slipform equipment handles the high-volume demands of subdivision roadways, retail parking lots, and municipal infrastructure projects with unmatched speed and precision. Every commercial concrete services project starts with proper subgrade preparation. We compact to 95% Modified Proctor density and verify grade with laser equipment before a single yard of concrete is placed. Our 4,500 PSI air-entrained mixes are specifically designed for the brutal freeze-thaw cycles that destroy inferior curb work within just a few seasons. As a full-service commercial concrete construction contractor, we also handle complex hand-formed radius work for parking lot islands, catch basin collar integration, and drainage transitions that require expert finishing. Whether you are a general contractor breaking ground on a new development in Brookfield or a municipality upgrading aging infrastructure in Racine, Trinity Construction has the equipment, the crews, and the three decades of commercial concrete company experience to get the job done right the first time.

Technical Standards
We don't guess; we engineer. Here are the baseline standards we bring to every commercial site.
| Specification | Trinity Standard | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Mix Strength | Min. 4,000 – 4,500 PSI | Resists heavy commercial impacts and snowplow damage. |
| Air Entrainment | 5% – 7% | Creates microscopic bubbles to allow water expansion during freezes, preventing spalling. |
| Base Material | Min. 6" Compacted Aggregate | Prevents frost heaving and provides a stable, draining foundation. |
| Joint Spacing | Every 10 linear feet | Controls cracking and accommodates seasonal temperature swings. |
Custom engineering specifications available upon request for heavy industrial or specialized municipal applications.
Expected Costs
& Timelines
Cost and time are the two biggest variables in commercial construction. In the Greater Milwaukee area, pricing is calculated per linear foot. Factors that influence the final price include:
- Total VolumeLarger projects benefit from economies of scale.
- Profile TypeStandard mountable vs. tall barrier curbs.
- Site PrepExcavation and sub-grade correction requirements.
- Radii ComplexityHand-forming vs. automated slipform runs.
Timelines
With our automated equipment, a standard retail parking lot perimeter or subdivision roadway can often be poured in just a few days. However, we always require a minimum 7-day cure window.
Site prep, excavation, laser-graded aggregate compaction.
Automated slipform pour: thousands of linear feet per day.
Curing compound application and control joint cutting.
Minimum cure window before adjacent heavy machinery access.
Full 4,000–4,500 PSI design strength reached.
