What
is Extruded Concrete Curbing?
What
is Extruded Concrete Curbing?
It involves a special concrete mix, which is a mixture of
Portland cement, sand and fiber mesh for added strength. Curbing can
be colored to
accent brick, stucco or rock.
This special concrete mix is fed
through the curb machine. The curb machine pushes the concrete
through a mold that extrudes the shaped concrete into an
inexpensive, unique, concrete, continuous edging landscape border.

TYPES OF CURBING
 |
|
After care for your curbing:
Curbing takes about 28-30 days to cure.
During the first 7-10 days you will need
to keep items such as gardening tools, lawn mowers, children and pets away
from the curbing to protect the curbing from damage. The most delicate time
is the first 24 hours after installation. The first few days the curbing is
soft; if you or your pets step on the curbing, this can scratch or damage
the curbing. Typical damage that happens to your curbing is made from water.
Please make sure sprinkler systems and irrigation or drainage from pools does not come in contact with curbing for at least 24 hours.
Color:
Once in a while curbing with color in it may look "splotchy" for a
few days while it is curing. This will go away as it cures and is not to be
confused with efflorescence. Efflorescence (white powder substance) can give
the curbing an unattractive look. This is commonly made from sprinkling
systems. The amount of the efflorescence varies depending upon the
hardness/volume of water that gets on the curbing. Check your sprinkler
heads while the system is on and adjust them to minimize the amount of water
sprayed directly on the curbing. A solution of 50/50 vinegar and water with
a light brushing will remove the efflorescence. This may have to be done a
few times; eventually, the efflorescence should go away.
Warranty:
Concrete curbing, like all other types of concrete, will crack. If it should
crack, we will repair it at no charge during the warranty period. A warning
however, is important to note repairs can be difficult to make in colored concrete. It is almost
always impossible to get a perfect color match. Sometimes “the patch is
worse than the crack”. A hairline crack is much less noticeable than a
patch or discoloration in the curbing
