THE PRODUCT

• Concrete
• Extruded on site
• Not individual pieces
• One continuous piece
• No reinforcement needed since no weight is placed on curbing
• Color is added to the mix

THE PROCESS

• Existing sod is removed with sod cutter-approximately one inch removed
• Curbing is extruded on top of ground through a small machine approximately the size and weight of a lawn mower
• Control joints placed to control cracking
• Sealer is applied to colored curbing after installation

BENEFITS

• Curbing floats on top of ground which means it is minimally impacted by ground freeze/thaw cycles
• Will not rot, rust, decompose
• More economical and durable than traditional lawn edging.
• Natural appearance to landscaping.
• 4" height and 6" or 7" width means mulch stays put
• Durable - once fully cured, difficult to chip or break
• Flexibility for design configurations
• Most jobs can be completed in one day
• Reduces edging and trimming time

CAUTIONS

• Tree roots that pop up out of the ground are not a friend of the curbing
• Concrete does crack, but every effort is made to control where the cracks occur by the use of control joints-similar to sidewalks and driveways
• If the curbing is walked on or driven on prior to it being cured, damage may occur -- see Care & Maintenance for details
