Our Landscape Curbing Warranty

Choose Cutting Edge Curbs as the supplier of your concrete landscape curbing, and you can be assured of a job well done. We have a policy guaranteeing that the landscape curbing product supplied will exceed your expectations. We are trained in the application of the curbing product and various finishes.

To provide the landscape curbing with room to flex as the ambient temperature changes, control joints are installed every 3 to 4 feet. This allows the curb to crack in a controlled manner when ground movement or other forces stress the curb. A minimum of one part cement to four parts aggregate is used in the curb concrete mix. This provides a consistently high strength concrete curb. Most landscape curbing is also over-laid with a special, strong cement sand mixture which makes the surface of your concrete edging very resistant to scratching, chipping and weathering.

Our curbing also has a special sealer applied to the surface of the concrete as it is installed. This sealer adds strength by slowing hydration, and protects your concrete edging from stains, reduces fading and makes the surface of your curb very easy to keep clean by simply hosing it off.

Landscape curbs require very little maintenance, but some precautions are important after installation. It is very important not to wet the new curbing excessively the first few days after installation, so be sure to have any automatic sprinklers temporarily disabled. During the first month after installation, don't allow metal objects like steel rakes and garden spades to come in contact with the new concrete edging, as concrete takes approximately 28 days to reach full strength. Take care when mowing your grass and doing edging that contact is not made with metal blades. Don't drive vehicles over landscape curbing as this may crack the curbing in places away from the control joints.

With common sense your curbing can retain its beauty and elegance for many years to come. A re-coat of sealer every two to three years will also help retain your continuous curbs' unique properties.

As with all concrete creations, small imperfections can occur which are beyond the ability of anybody to control. If you have any questions regarding repairs to damaged curbing, please contact us.
