 | | - Are forms set to do concrete landscape curbing?
- No, a machine that extrudes the concrete into a continuous concrete border is used.
- How long does the process take?
- Depending on the type and footage of the installation, it normally takes only 1 day.
- Do you use reinforcement in your curbing?
- Yes, in most cases reinforced fibers are used in the curbing.
- How will replacing my existing edging with curbing effect my landscaping?
- The installer will remove the existing edging, and cut an 8 " wide strip of sod away from the outside edge of your existing landscaping. This will allow them to extrude the curb against your current edge. If you have any sprinkler heads on the outside of your existing landscape edge, they will need to be moved (which can be priced and done by the installer in most cases). If they are inside your edging they will not be affected by the curbing installation process.
- Will I be able to mow up against my curbing?
- Your curbing will be as strong as 3000psi and will with stand your mowers weight to ride along the edge of the curbing. The blades of your mower will not damage your curbing, and will allow you to mow right up against it, resulting in less time spent weed eating around your landscaped areas.
- Will the color fade over the years?
- No, not if integral colors are used in the mixture, and a sealer is applied to prevent fading. Resealing is good longevity practice.
- Will the curbing break?
- All concrete will crack. To control cracking control joints every 3-4 feet will be placed to allow your curbing to move with the ground.
