Frequently Asked Questions

Question #1: How long does an average decorative curbing install take?

Most 150-foot decorative curbing installations can be completed in as little as 4 hours!

Question #2: Will installing decorative curbing disrupt my landscaping?

No need to worry about heavy equipment damage! Our installation process utilizes a compact machine, ensuring a beautiful curb without disrupting your lawn.

Question #3: Are there any steps I can take to make the installation process easier?

To ensure a smooth installation for your decorative curbing, North River Curbing will need your help with a couple of things:

  • Water Source: We'll need access to a working garden hose hookup on-site.

  • Underground Utilities: Please have all underground objects, like pet fences, cable lines, and sprinkler systems, marked before we begin. We kindly recommend contacting your local utility department for assistance with locating these.

Question #4: Do I need to be concerned with the flowers/plants growing in my beds upon decorative curbing installation?

Rest assured! Our compact machines, measuring under two feet wide, ensure minimal disruption to your flower beds and surrounding plants.

Question #5: Is my presence required during the decorative curbing installation?

Your Presence is not required during the curbing installation. But you may want to watch how it's done!

Question #6: How long can I expect my decorative curbing to look beautiful?

Enjoy your beautiful decorative curbing for years to come with minimal upkeep.

Question #7: How deep do you dig to install Decorative Curbing?

Say goodbye to trenches! Our innovative method uses the concrete curbing itself as the base, eliminating the need for a traditional footer.

Question #8: Should I be concerned about ground movement affecting my decorative curbing?

Unlike traditional landscaping with individual blocks or bricks that can move over time, decorative curbing is a single, continuous piece for lasting stability. To accommodate natural ground settling, we incorporate control joints every 2-3 feet. These joints are strategically placed and run about 40% deep, so any minor ground shifts are directed to these designated points, minimizing cracks and protecting the overall beauty of your curbing.

Question #9: How effective is decorative curbing at preventing grass from spreading?

Say goodbye to runaway sod and pesky weeds! Our custom-designed curbs create a lasting barrier that keeps your landscaping exactly where it belongs. The one-piece design stops grass from creeping into your flowerbeds, while the raised back edge ensures your mulch, rocks, or other decorative fillers stay put.
