The Various Styles of Commercial Concrete Kerbing Available for You to Choose From

Posted on

Concrete kerbing is an excellent way to improve the appearance of your commercial landscape. It helps create border lines between the different features of your landscape, thus separating one feature from the other. Concrete kerbing will give your landscape a beautiful, professional look that adds value to your entire property. Commercial concrete kerbing comes in a selection of designs and layouts, depending on your specific needs and that of your property.

Before you jump into ordering concrete kerbing for your commercial landscaping, you should be aware of the different styles available on the market for you to pick from. Read on to take a look at some of the most popular ones.

Slant kerbing: Also called angle or wedge kerbing, this style is popular for its unique ability to retain gravel and garden materials, as the rear side of the kerb is higher than the front side, which is normally set at ground level. Slant-style kerbing allows for easy mowing, as you can move the lawn mower right up the kerb without touching it. This style of concrete kerbing can give a driveway, yard or garden a nice contemporary look. 

Mowers edge kerbing: This profile is specifically designed with mowing requirements in mind. It provides lawn mowing equipment with adequate ground clearance so that the mower blades do not hit the concrete. Mower edge kerbing offers exceptional retention of landscape soil, rock and mulch. This makes them one of the most functional kerbing styles.

Block kerbing: As the name implies, this profile consist of square or rectangular concrete blocks installed to create a curved border line. Typically this kind of kerbing is often chosen for its bulkiness and added strength, which makes it perfect for high traffic areas, such as commercial driveways.

Dome kerbing: If you want a concrete edging system that is softer in looks, dome kerbing would be an ideal choice. This style doesn't have the sharp edges or corners that the other profiles have, but its smooth shape still allows it to hold landscaping materials, such as rocks and mulches, in place.

Stamped kerbing: If you want your concrete kerbing to have a custom textured and patterned finish that can grab everyone's attention, stamped kerbing is the go-to option. It's the most effective way to mimic the appearance of brick, natural stones and other landscaping materials. The number of designs that stamped kerbing can come in is virtually limitless, as there is an extensive range of colours and finishes available to choose from.
