Concrete landscape curbing Installation process
The landscape installation process for commercial and residential homes in Calgary falls into two categories. One being new homes or businesses, where we have a blank canvas, this making it easier for the actual installation process. Two; existing landscape, this is where we are going into already established landscape and things can get worse before they get better. A big concern that businesses and home owners have is the damage that can be caused while preforming landscaping. Concrete curbing takes away from any or little damage taking place. There is no forms to be installed like the installation of regular concrete, wheel barrels aren’t running back and forth over your grass and you have no chance of concrete being splashed on the side of your house or on your turf.

1: The first step of the process for your concrete landscape curbing is ground preparation. A trench is dug out that is approximately 2 inches deep and 10 inches wide using shovels or a sod cutting machine on larger projects.
2: Once the excavation is complete, cleaned up and raked level the concrete is mixed. All our concrete for curbing is mixed on site, making very kittle mess. Once the mix is complete, the necessary curb mold is attached to the machine to commence pouring.
3: The final stage of your new concrete curbing starts. This involves the use of hand tools and a bit of detail work. Like regular concrete expansion joints are cut in to the curbing every 2 feet or so, to control any cracking. The whole installation process usually takes 1 day, depending on the size of the project.
