Working in Baldwin

Baldwin-Woodville Area High School is on 13th Avenue with a little over 500 students, and the district fields boys' and girls' track and field and tennis. Greenfield Elementary is in the village too and the middle school is in Woodville. District voters passed a facilities referendum for building upgrades. Track and court work anywhere is a summer-window job, and every district in this part of the state is working the same few weeks.

What makes track work different

The surface work is the same trade. Clean it, fill what has opened up, seal it, and it lasts. What's different is everything downstream of the paint gun. Lane lines are set from a measured stagger so that every lane runs the same distance. Exchange zones and acceleration zones have defined lengths and have to be marked in the right colors to be read at speed. Get the layout wrong and you have a facility that looks finished and can't host a meet, which is a problem nobody notices until the day it matters.

What Decides the Price in Baldwin

These are ranges. Anything at this scale is walked and measured before it is quoted, because condition and layout move the number far more than square footage does.

Restripe only

Existing layout, surface sound

Measured on site

  • Lanes, exchange and acceleration zones, numbers
  • Layout taken from the existing measured stagger

Courts

Tennis, basketball, pickleball

Measured on site

  • Per court, depending on condition and color coating
  • Multiple courts on one visit come down per court

Public bodies usually need a bid they can put against a budget line, often a season ahead. Ask in the fall for work the following summer and you'll get a better number and a better slot.

How the Work Goes in Baldwin

Track work happens in the summer window between seasons.

Walk it, measure it, write it

Condition survey and a measured check of the existing layout before anything is quoted. If the stagger has drifted from an earlier restripe, that gets found now rather than after the paint is down.

Crack repair

Hot rubber at 400 degrees into anything that has opened up. On a track this matters more than on a lot, because a crack across a running lane is a trip hazard as well as a leak.

Clean and seal

The whole surface, edge to edge. This is the step that buys the years and it is the one that gets deferred, because a faded track still works.

Lay out the lines

Chalked from measurements, checked, then painted. Lanes, exchange and acceleration zones, start lines, and lane numbers.

Hand it back clean

Cured, swept, and ready for the season.

Questions We Get in Baldwin

What Baldwin calls us about, answered straight.

More questions answered
Baldwin's 50 minutes out. Do you come this far for a lot?
For commercial lots, yes. It's about 49 miles straight out I-94 to Exit 19, right around 50 minutes. Send the address and what the lot needs and we'll set up a time to walk it. The estimate is free.
When can track work be done?
Summer, between seasons. Sealer needs warm dry weather and a proper cure, and a track needs to be closed while that happens, so the window is roughly June through August in Baldwin and the surrounding area. Book in the winter for the following summer.
How often does an asphalt track need resealing?
Every three to five years for the seal, and crack filling as often as it needs it, which in Baldwin and the surrounding area is usually annually on an older track. Lines get relaid with the seal, because sealing over them removes them.
Can you restripe a track without resurfacing it?
Yes, and it is often the right call when the surface is sound and only the lines have faded. It buys a few years before the surface work is genuinely due. What it costs depends on the layout: lane count, whether the exchange zones and the field events are being reinstated, and whether the existing lines can be followed or have to be set out again.
Do you do tennis, basketball and pickleball courts?
Yes. Same trade, smaller and simpler layout. Multiple courts done on one visit cost less per court because the trip is already paid for.
Can you put track and court work out as a formal bid?
Yes. Written scope, measured quantities and a firm number, in whatever format your district needs it, and early enough to sit in next year's budget.

The Lots and Surfaces in Baldwin

Baldwin is a village of about 4,400 in St. Croix County, sitting at I-94 Exit 19 where US 63 crosses the interstate. It's about 49 miles west of Eau Claire and about 48 miles east of Minneapolis, and the county it's in is counted as part of the Minneapolis-St. Paul metro. US 12 and US 63 run through the village on top of the interstate. The county seat is Hudson, further west on I-94.

The industrial ground here has names on it. The I-94 Industrial Park and Baldwin East, a commercial and light industrial park, are the two the village markets, and TID No. 7 is a 258-acre mixed-use district at the south end created in 2007 to bring industrial and commercial development in. The plants are where the big private lots are: Vital Plastics runs injection molding out of about 70,000 square feet across two buildings on VandeBerg Street, Skycoat does powder coating, e-coating and wet painting on Evergreen Street, and Donaldson has a Baldwin plant.

The rest of the commercial surface is the interchange and the hospital. Exit 19 carries a truck stop and three more fuel and convenience stops, plus a pair of hotels off Baldwin Plaza Drive. Western Wisconsin Health is a 25-bed hospital on Bergslien Street just off the interstate, and it runs clinics in Roberts and Spring Valley too. In the village itself the stores are along Cedar Street, and the school district keeps Greenfield Elementary and Baldwin-Woodville Area High School here, with the middle school over in Woodville.

St. Croix County is glacial ground: moraine running from clay through to boulders across most of the eastern county, and an outwash plain of stratified gravel, sand, silt and clay in the southwestern corner. Which one is under a lot changes what the frost does to it.
