Kwik Kerb® Business Owners will ensure that they do everything possible to ensure that your landscape curbing is the best it can possibly be. The process that Kwik Kerbers follow, (although different for each job) is outlined below:
Free No Obligation Quote
As there is such a wide range of profiles, patterns and colors available, it is not possible to quote over the phone. We will make an appointment to attend your property and provide a free design and quote. We will advise you on the most suitable and cost effective solution for you.
Site Preparation
For areas that are covered by turf (lawn), the design of the Kwik Kerb is painted on the grass with the line marker.
Turf Removal
The turfed area is prepared using the Edgeprep® machine. This machine is able to remove grass to a consistent depth on the intended path for the Kwik Kerb®. The turf can then be rolled up to be removed.
Extruding the Kwik Kerb®
The Kwik Kerb® operator will fill the Edgemaster® machine with the concrete mix, which will then self-propel while extruding the concrete curbing behind the machine. Adjustments are made with height and steering to ensure a consistent smooth kerb.
Hand Form Work:
The Edgemaster® will lay the majority of the Kwik Kerb; however there will always be sections that need to be formed by hand. Corners or the end of a curb between to walls. Kwik Kerb operators are trained to ensure that these sections fit seamlessly into the rest of the machine laid curb.
Applying Expansion Joints:
A cut is made into the concrete at regular intervals. Expansion joints are placed so that once the concrete has cured and is then subject to ground movement or fluctuating temperatures, any cracking that occurs should be confined to the expansion joints.
Finishing the Kwik Kerb®:
Kwik Kerb® has two main finishing styles – EuroStyle® (Slate, Rustic Wood and plain color) and EuroBrick® (brick and mortar paving style). These patterned finishes are patented and exclusive to Kwik Kerb® Business Owners. To see more of these styles see our Shapes – colors – Styles page.
