Concrete edging offers a durable and solid boundary that stands up to New Zealand’s varied climates and soil conditions. It’s often used in formal gardens or to separate lawns from driveways and beds. This type of edging can be poured in place or laid using precast sections. Some designs mimic stone or tile, while others are smooth and minimalist for modern use.
Concrete provides excellent resistance to movement or erosion. It’s ideal where grass or mulch tends to spill into unwanted areas or when retaining soil height is needed.
However, concrete is permanent and more difficult to modify later. It also requires good drainage planning to avoid cracking or heaving in the future.
Choose concrete edging when you want a long-term solution that stays where it’s placed. Ensure the base is well compacted and expansion joints are used where needed.
