HOW WE DO IT
Kwik Kerb edging is produced in 3 simple stages - Preparation, Laying, and Finishing. Our experienced team is able to complete each stage quickly and efficiently, giving you the best quality product as quickly as possible.

Preparation is critical to how the finished product will appear. For areas that are already grassed, the design is marked out on the grass using a line marker. A turfed area is then prepared using the Edgeprep machine. This machine is able to remove the sod to a consistent depth. Trenches are then finished graded and checked for proper compaction of native soil |

Extruding is where the kerbing begins to take shape. In the mixer, ingredients are added to complete the concrete mixture used to lay Kwik Kerb. The concrete is then loaded into the Edgemaster machine to begin the extrusion process. Adjustments are made for height and steering when required. Once the curbing has been extruded, associates ensure that the sloping is correct and the kerbing is smoothed with a trowel. |
|
Finishing the kerbing is the process where it is colored, released, stamped, sealed, and completed. We pour a well mixed color slurry over kerbing, being sure to completely cover the kerb and nothing else. Then it is released and stamped to give an authentic brick and grout look for the Eurobrick or slate impression as in our Eurostyle kerbing. Finally the product is sealed and completed. |
