How much does curb and gutter installation cost?

Concrete curb and gutter installation costs $15–$30 per linear foot in Northern Illinois. Standard rolled curb runs $15–$20/lf, while barrier (vertical face) curb costs $20–$30/lf. A typical residential project (100–200 linear feet) costs $1,500–$6,000. Commercial projects with longer runs often get volume pricing.

What's the difference between rolled curb and barrier curb?

Rolled (mountable) curb has a gradual slope that vehicles can drive over — common in residential driveways and subdivisions. Barrier (vertical face) curb has a sharp vertical face that prevents vehicles from mounting it — used in parking lots, commercial properties, and along busy streets. Both control water drainage effectively.

Do I need a permit for curb installation?

Yes — curb and gutter work almost always requires a municipal permit, especially in the public right-of-way. Many municipalities have specific design standards for curb height, gutter width, and drainage flow requirements. RCC handles all permit applications and ensures compliance with local specifications.
