Very informative video - thanks! We are having this done next week in Indiana. We have large mature trees. Have you encountered tree routes in your prep?
Nice work, I have seen those continuous curb machines around, that is a very attractive upgrade. Do they make forms for various profiles? I think I might like something a little lower on the grass side that I could hang the mower deck over. Could always dig it down too.
@@creativecurbing Thanks for the speedy reply, will check it out. Looks like you guys are in Texas?? Wish you were local to me here in Washington state. How is this type of work typically priced? Guessing by the foot with up charges for the color and stamping?
Well our mower edge job canceled. As we typically do not do mower, there is no telling when we will get another job doing mower edge. Sorry about that!
As a single piece of concrete do you add any rebar or cut points for strength or controlling cracks? I assume the trowel punctures and vertical grooves were enough. Nifty machine.
You're exactly correct. Every few feet we throw a crack joint in by making a cut in the curb then rolling it. Unfortunately, due to the process, we aren't able to put rebar, but we do add fiber mesh to every load.
@@creativecurbing Very cool. It's always impressive to learn and see people doing what they love by making it a career. Great job and wish you continued success!
It will eventually crack at the joint lines. That's why we put them in, just like a sidewalk or driveway. By putting the joints in, it makes the crack less noticable. We have curbing that has been put down for 15 years that still looks great
These are so satisfying to watch. Yall do a very nice clean-up afterwards too!
Thank you 😊
I want this done
I live in wisconsin
You do good job, I never see that before. You are the best
Thanks!
good night, great job
Thanks!
You don't need any HPB stone underneath? I live in a cold climate, and I'm worried about heaving. Great work, by the way. What do you charge per foot?
Nice work man!
Sweet!
These look fantastic. What's a per linear foot cost for curb with stamp and stain?

We have, small Roots we cut, big roots we do not. It's a large tree just make sure you're giving it plenty of space.

Look on Google for "curbing mower edge". We're doing a mower edge job on Wednesday and I'll post the video Thursday.

What machine are you using to lay the concrete?
What did you roll onto the concrete for colour there before the sealer

Donde compraste la bomba para aplicar sealer
Just wondering if you could suggest how I could do this in a cold weather climate? I know that most of Texas never sees much below freezing temps.
You can't do it below freezing unfortunately. Up north, they only curb about half the year.
Where do you put the drains on the curbing? Wont it hold water like a pool if there is no drainage cut into the curb?
If they have (or plan to) put gutters in, we don't put drains. I do bring it up with all of our clients and they get to decide

how deep is the crack joint? just wondering....@@creativecurbing
@@lynnstuckey9087 3/4 of the way through.
Couold pour a concrete base and let it extend away from the bed to keep weeds from and turf from growing next to the curb?
Yes, we could do that.
What’s the sealer you sprayed on it?
Eagle supreme cut 50/50 with xylene
Whats the dusty material rolled on the top? Is that what it giving the dark color?
It's called color release!
We are charging around 10$ a foot in Myrtle beach SC.. is that comporable?
Yup. Our competition charges around that. We're a little higher.
I'm planning to do it on my home in Ohio, would you give me he exact mix of concrete material and fiber mesh so I don't mess up?
7 buckets of sand, 94lbs of Portland type I/II cement, 16oz integral color, a handful of fiber, and water.
I have a question I live in the state of Colorado where can I buy the roller for the design
Borderline has them for sale. But they are expensive. Your best bet is eBay
Where are you living? And what area are you working?
Austin tx
Can I have your phone number?@@creativecurbing
How long will last without cracking
It will eventually crack at the joint lines. That's why we put them in, just like a sidewalk or driveway. By putting the joints in, it makes the crack less noticable. We have curbing that has been put down for 15 years that still looks great
If you can recommend someone in Pittsburgh I’ll take a recommendation.
I'm not personally familiar with this curber, but check out edgeappeal.com/
