Why an curb is needed

Curb installation helps fix the asphalt edge and separate a path or driveway from soil, lawn, sidewalk and other areas. Without a rigid edge, pavement can spread over time, especially under vehicle loads and seasonal temperature changes.

Curbs make the area look neat and help preserve pavement geometry after asphalting.

A properly aligned curb defines the shape of the entire area.

If installation is uneven, it becomes immediately visible after asphalt paving and site improvement.

Main installation stages

Where curbs are used

along parking areas and driveways;
along paths and sidewalks;
for improvement of yards and commercial sites;
to separate asphalt from lawn or soil;
on sites with slopes and drainage.

Why installation is best done before asphalt paving

The edge is set first, then the base and final pavement are brought up to it. This sequence creates a clean junction without voids or edge failure. If site preparation is needed together with the curb, it is best to order base preparation and site improvement.
