Frequently Asked Questions
What is EdgeWise Curbing and why should I choose it for my property?
EdgeWise Curbing is a premium on-site extruded concrete landscape edging system that increases property beauty, defines gardens & beds, accents walkways/driveways, retains mulch, prevents erosion, and creates a permanent root barrier. Unlike wood, brick, or plastic, it will not rot, rust, shift, or require ongoing maintenance. View our gallery
How areas do you service and how much does EdgeWise concrete curbing cost?
Areas we service are in and around the greater Charlotte area, also known as Metrolina, which spans 7 counties in North Carolina (Mecklenburg, Cabarrus, Iredell, Rowan, Gaston, Lincoln, Union) and 3 in South Carolina (York, Lancaster, Chester). The cost depends on linear footage, chosen shape (Slant, Mower’s Edge, or 6×4), color, and decorative style. Get a free and instant online estimates for your property.
Is EdgeWise Curbing better than plastic, metal, or wood landscape edging?
Yes. Plastic edging fades, becomes brittle, and shifts. Metal rusts. Wood rots and needs replacement. EdgeWise extruded concrete is permanent, will not rust like steel, will not decompose like wood, and will not move like brick. It also supports mower wheels and creates a true root barrier.
How durable is EdgeWise Curbing in North Carolina weather?
Extremely durable. EdgeWise Curbing is engineered to withstand freeze-thaw cycles, heavy rain, and intense sun. It provides decades of maintenance-free performance while keeping its color and shape.
Will EdgeWise concrete curbing crack or break over time?
Cracking risk is very low when installed by our professionals. Our concrete mix and extrusion process create a strong, stable border. The Slant and Mower’s Edge styles are specifically designed for landscape use. Proper base preparation and our curing methods minimize expansion/contraction issues common in North Carolina.
What is the EdgeWise Curbing installation process?
Our crew prepares the area, then uses specialized extrusion equipment to form seamless concrete borders on-site in your exact chosen shape, color, and style. The process is clean, fast (usually completed in one day), and creates perfect curves or straight lines with no visible seams.
What shapes are available for EdgeWise Curbing?
Three shapes: Slant Style (most popular, maximum stamp options), Mower’s Edge Style (easiest for riding mowers – place one wheel on the lower edge), and 6×4 Style (heavier duty for driveways, walkways, or horseshoe pits).
What colors can I choose for my EdgeWise Curbing?
A full palette of integral Tygar CurbColors™ (Bengal Brick Red, Curter’s Colorado, Adobe, Bamboo, etc.) plus optional release-agent colors (Charcoal, Dark Walnut, Redwood, etc.) for added depth and contrast. All colors are available on every shape.
What styles, patterns, and textures does EdgeWise Curbing offer?
Rollers include Brick Bond, Slate, Cobblestone, Riverstone, Herringbone, Pebbblestone, and more. Stamps (Slant shape) include Random Rock, Brick, Running Bond, Flagstone, Ashlar, Basket Weave, etc. Mower’s Edge and 6×4 have their own compatible patterns. Custom stamps available on request.
How does EdgeWise Curbing make lawn maintenance easier?
It creates an effective root barrier that stops grass and weeds, retains mulch, prevents erosion, and eliminates hours of string-trimming. The concrete is strong enough to support your mower wheel, dramatically reducing edging time.
Can EdgeWise Curbing be used around driveways, walkways, or trees?
Yes. The 6×4 style is ideal for driveways and walkways. All shapes work beautifully around trees, flower beds, and playground areas (see brochure examples). We create perfect circles and custom curves.
Is EdgeWise Curbing completely maintenance-free?
Yes. Once installed, it requires zero maintenance. No painting, sealing, replacing, or annual touch-ups — unlike wood, brick, plastic, or metal edging.
