Kwik Kerb
continuous concrete garden edging turns your
garden into a functional masterpiece
Continuous
concrete garden edging is a highly effective
and visually appealing means of defining the
spaces in your garden, separating lawns from
beds, containing ground cover, retaining
precious water and creating focal points.
There is a plethora of reasons to invest in
quality continuous concrete garden edging to
turn your garden from good to spectacular.

Time-saving and
environmental benefits
Kwik Kerb is
a machine-extruded continuous concrete
edging that can be applied in virtually any
landscaping context. But beyond the
aesthetic appeal, there are a number of
sound functional purposes behind concrete
edging.
- Raised
above the soil level, Kwik Kerb edging
prevents top soil and mulch from
washing away in rainstorms and retains the
precious rain water for use by plants.
A mower strip profile becomes a great
time-saver since grass can be kept in check
with a quick trim. The
underground portion helps keep grass and
weeds out of
flower and vegetable
beds.
- If you have a fish pond
finish it off with edging – just like
framing a painting.
Putting an edge around your pond makes it
stand out and more importantly will
secure your pond liner beneath it and ensure
that run-off and soil from rain does
not end up with your kois
The case
for concrete edging becomes more evident
when one considers the pitfalls of other
substrates.
- Plastic is simply not
an option for the avid ‘green’ gardener –
plastic soon
becomes faded and
looks tatty in SA’s harsh sunlight.
- Timber, while offering a more rustic
appeal soon rots as it absorbs moisture and
becomes a breeding ground for
termites and ants. Treatments used to
prolong
timber life seep into the
surrounding soil creating a toxic soil
environment and
maintenance soon
becomes both costly and time consuming.

Planning garden
edges
Edging should be planned just like any other
aspect of your garden. Start by drawing a
detailed plan of your house and garden and
try to include any future landscaping plans
you may have in mind. Remember that each
line you draw will require some form of
edge. It may be a flat edge (often a mowing
strip), a raised kerb to retain garden soil
or lawn or to control the flow of water, or
a raised garden bed. There are also many
types of profiles – square, sloped, mower
edge, car park, lane dividers and high
profile border. We’ll advise you on the
various profiles to ensure you get a
solution in line with your garden’s unique
features – for example a raised or sloped
edging will stop surface runoff from your
beds ending up on the lawn or driveway

Choosing
the finish
Concrete
edging has come a long way from the days of
grey, neutral finishes and standard heights.
Today the use of oxides to colour concrete
is increasingly popular. Concrete strips can
also be stamped or stencilled in a variety
of patterns. Kwik Kerb is produced in many
styles and colours. Almost any colour can be
chosen and shape and contours can be easily
created in any landscape. The finished
result is quickly achieved and the
difference it makes to a garden is simply
amazing. |
