Decorative concrete curbing, a type of lawn edging, is quickly becoming the favorite choice for landscape edging for many reasons. Most find that it's simply the most attractive improvement available, while others really like the fact that it's practical, permanent and cost-effective.  For use in residential landscaping, commercial landscaping, or municipal parks and common areas, curbing provides the best alternative for your garden edging.  Regardless, we are certain you will find decorative curbing to be very beneficial for your home landscaping, and we invite you to learn more about it on CurbingLocator.ORG, the best curb directory on the web. To find curbing for your home or business, just insert your zip code or postal code in the box above.

Decorative landscape curbing is the best possible edging to use for your flower beds, gardens, and lawn areas because it creates an extremely attractive border that accentuates and highlights your landscape, while making a distinctive border between the lawn and flower beds. With stamping and color, you can achieve the look of brick, cobblestone, slate or any stone surface. Not only attractive, landscape curbing is also functional and practical; as a distinct border, curbing reduces lawn maintenance by keeping your bedding material in your beds, while allowing lawnmowers to run right next to your edging. Landscape concrete curbing is the best possible landscape border as it outlasts and is more cost effective than other borders, such as plastic edging, metal forms, or inlayed bricks. It also creates a root barrier to keep your lawn out of your flower bed and minimizes your weeding efforts. Concrete curbing is permanent and durable, giving you years of maintenance free service, and curbing continues to be installed in thousands of yards every year, in homes all over the United States, Canada, and the world.

What is Decorative Curbing?
Curbing is a customized landscape edging made with extruded, colored, and stamped concrete. With specialized equipment operated by an experienced curbing contractor, these garden borders are highly versatile and can be used in a variety of settings, both residential and commercial (for more info on the equipment, click HERE). Because it's permanent and cost-effective, curbing is becoming the lawn edging of choice for flower beds, custom borders, and most other landscape applications.

What are the advantages of Landscape Curbing?

IT'S PRACTICAL:

• Very cost-effective improvement because it's permanent
• Curbing instantly increases property values
• Adds distinction between beds, lawns, property lines, and other boundaries

IT'S VERSATILE:

• Curbing is appropriate for any climate or topography, including northern climates with severe winters
• A wide selection of colors, curb styles, and stamp patterns for any setting
• And it works for new yards or as a value added improvement

IT'S SENSIBLE:

• Curbing is permanent and maintenance free
• It prevents erosion and preserves bedding material
• And it reduces the cost and time of maintaining beds & makes edging much easier

Why is decorative landscape curbing better than other edging products?
Curbing is permanent and will last as long as your landscape. If installed correctly, it won't shift (like stone borders or brick borders), rust (like metal edging), rot (railroad ties and wood edging), or become discolored or bend out of shape (plastic edging).  Lawn curbing also helps save money and maintenance time by keeping landscape edging materials in place and preventing erosion. Once curbing is installed, the property owner will never need another type of lawn edging or landscape border. To view a short video on how curbing is installed, go to VIDEO.  

Where in my yard can I have landscape curbing installed?
Curbing is commonly used to edge flower beds, landscape islands, tree rings, mailboxes, entrances to homes and businesses, driveways, and walkways. It can also be used as a retaining barrier, for erosion control, parking lot borders, parking lot stops, and other border needs. Curbing can be strengthened with rebar, fiber, stone aggregate, and other agents for commercial applications.  Even in difficult topography, colder climates, and challenging spaces, curbing can be installed virtually anywhere.  For more info on curbing applications, click HERE.

I don't see much curbing where I live - will it work in my area?
Concrete curbing is a relatively new concept that is just now becoming known in most markets in the U.S., Canada, and worldwide. However, once landscape curbing is introduced into a neighborhood, its popularity spreads quickly. Most cities, rural and suburban towns, and smaller communities only have a few, if any, curbers, yet curbing will take root where ever landscaping is used.
