FAQ
Question:  What can harm or crack concrete borders?
Answer:  Tree roots can grow under any kind of concrete and cause it to crack and lift.

Questions:  How do I repair something underneath the concrete curbing?
Answer:  Control joints are placed in the curb at installation.  The curbing can be broken clean at these joints by applying leverage with a flat garden spade.  Once the section is free, simply remove it, complete your repairs, and place the section of concrete edging into its original position.

Question:  What type of maintenance should I perform on my new curbing to keep it looking like it is new?
Answer:  Sealing your border every year is recommended.  Use a high grade acrylic, non yellowing sealer that can be purchased at any concrete supply store.  Apply with a 6" float roller.

Question:  Will frost and ground shifting affect my curbing?
Answer:  Our curb is reinforced with Harbourite fiber mesh which adds considerable strength to the curb.  Expansion joins are also cut every 2 feet to control cracking.  In addition, our curbing is a continuous piece of concrete.  Individual blocks or bricks will shift over time and in the winter.
