Frequently Asked Questions

Is there going to be a cement truck and large equipment tearing up my lawn?
No. All of the concrete is mixed on-site in a small trailer. It is then wheeled to the extruding machine using wheel barrows with large turf tires. All equipment is very small and lightweight, so there is virtually no wear and tear on your lawn.

How long does the installation take?
The installation time varies from job to job based on footage and the amount of prep work involved. However, most jobs can be done in a matter of a few hours.

How much does concrete edging cost?
Since concrete edging is a continuous poured product, it is priced by the linear foot. Our cost is very comparable to the prices of other forms of installed edging. We also offer discounts based on footage and the amount of prep work required.

What is included in the cost?
The price per foot includes removal of any old edging (plastic, pavers, or timbers), ground preparation, color choice, installation, optional stamping, and sealer.

Is the color applied to the surface of the concrete and will it fade?
The coloring we use is mixed into every batch of concrete. If the edging should ever scratch or chip, it will not be noticeable because the colorant goes throughout the edging. We also use a UV resistant sealer to eliminate fading. We recommend the edging be re-sealed every other year. Edge Pros offers re-application of sealer in our service package, or you can purchase sealer at your hardware store and do it on your own.

Does the edging sit on a footing?
Because the edging itself is concrete, it serves as its own footing. We use a sod cutter to form a trench about 2 inches deep and 9 inches wide where the edging is poured. Occasionally, we add a little sand to any low spots so the edging will be level. Please refer to the “Process” page for more details.

How do you keep the edging from cracking?
Concrete edging is like any other type of concrete; it can and will crack. We try to alleviate the cracking by installing control joints every 2 feet. We also use fiberglass reinforcement and other additives to strengthen the concrete. We experience very little cracking in our product.

Do you offer any type of warranty?
Yes, Edge Pros offers a 2 year workmanship warranty on all installed edging. If the edging should separate or shift due to workmanship error or natural causes, we will repair it at no charge. A more detailed warranty description is available upon request.
