Mulch drifting into the lawn? Grass invading your flowerbeds? Concrete curbing is the long‑lasting fix. In Franklinton’s humid summers and Raleigh’s clay soils, professionally installed curbing delivers both beauty and practicality. Below are seven reasons homeowners across the Triangle are upgrading their edging with DS Concrete.
1. Crisp, Permanent Borders
Unlike plastic or metal edging that bends and heaves, concrete curbing creates a solid, seamless line between lawn and landscape beds. The result: gardens look groomed, and mowing becomes quicker because wheels glide right along the curb.
2. Less Yard‑Work, More Free Time
Slip‑resistant curbs hold mulch and decorative stone in place during heavy summer downpours. Fewer wash‑outs mean fewer Saturday mornings spent raking material back into beds—leaving more time for barbecues on your new DS Concrete patio.
3. Instant Curb Appeal & Higher Home Value
A clean border draws the eye and frames your planting beds like a picture. Appraisers love the “finished” look, and real‑estate studies show upgraded landscaping can add 5–12 percent to resale value—especially in competitive Wake Forest neighborhoods.
4. Better Drainage & Erosion Control
Properly graded curbing channels runoff away from foundations and sidewalks, reducing puddles that erode topsoil. In clay‑heavy Rolesville yards, this extra control keeps roots healthier and walkways safer.
5. Built to Survive North Carolina Weather
We pour a high‑strength mix reinforced with fibers, so your curb resists cracking through freeze–thaw cycles. Once sealed, it shrugs off UV rays, lawn‑care chemicals, and the occasional bump from a mower deck.
6. Unlimited Design Possibilities
Choose from dozens of colors, stamps, and profiles—from natural‑stone textures to sleek contemporary lines. Add contrasting borders or custom curves around trees for a one‑of‑a‑kind landscape feature.
7. Cost‑Effective Over the Long Haul
Because concrete curbing outlasts plastic and wood by decades, its lifetime cost is far lower. Individual sections rarely need replacement; if a segment is damaged, DS Concrete can repair it without tearing out the whole run.
