- A. We love to be part of the creative design process on all of our new installations. We are also highly experienced in helping your landscape border achieve the accent and style you picture in your mind.
#4. Why do you say that your concrete curbing is continuous when I see cut lines all over the place?

Curb Care: Unless instructed otherwise, follow these rules.
#1. The First 24 Hours are the most important time to keep everyone away from the curbing, neighbors, kids, pets, and even you. It is during this time curiosity can damage the curb. Also make sure no sprinklers or water is sprayed directly onto the curbs.
#2. Now 48 hours later, the curbing is stronger, but can still be damaged. Sprinklers are OK.
#3. After Five Days you may now place your wheel on the curbing for mowing.
#4. After Two Weeks you may now run wheel-barrows over curbing.
