Step 1 The (2-3 man) crew will arrive at your home and start the ground preparation. First, the ground will be marked with spray paint or a string line. Then a small sod cutter is used to remove the grass where the curb is to be installed. This process will NOT disturb existing beds.

|
Step 2 Concrete is mixed with color additives on site using a small mixer mounted on our trailer. There will be no heavy equipment or concrete trucks on your property.
|
|
Step 3 The concrete is fed into the extruder from a wheelbarrow. This created the shape of the continuous concrete curb.
|
|
Step 4 The curb is then hand-finished using a trowel and special stamping tools.
|
|
Step 5 Control/Expansion joints are cut approximately every 3 feet while the concrete is wet. The cut is approximately 1/3 of the way through the curb. This is to minimize cracking.
|
|
Step 6 The curb is sealed using a clear concrete sealer.
