The
Original Curb Appeal in the Central Florida Area!
Frequently
Asked Questions
Are forms
set to do concrete landscape curbing?
No, Curb Appeal utilizes a machine that extrudes the concrete
into a continuous concrete border. We can customize your job to
your satisfaction!
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, reinforced fibers are used in the curbing.
Will
the color fade over the years?
No, not if integral colors are used in the our mixture, and a
sealer is applied to prevent fading. Resealing is good maintenance
practice. Talk to your installer about how often to reseal.
Will
the curbing break?
All concrete will crack. To control cracking - Curb Appeal cuts
" expansion joints " every 12-18 inches, which allow
s your curbing to breathe.
How will
replacing my existing edging with curbing effect my landscaping?
You will need to remove existing edging from your landscaping.
The installer will cut a 9" wide strip of sod away , and
prepare the ground. If you have any sprinkler heads on or around
the borders, consult your installer to find out if they need to
be relocated.
Will
I be able to mow up against my curbing?
Your curbing will be as strong as 3000psi and will withstand 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.
