Concrete Curbs and Aprons

Driveway aprons, curbs and gutters poured to the right profile for drainage, clean edges and long wear.

The apron is the short stretch of concrete where your driveway meets the street, and it takes a beating. Cars turn on it, trucks drive over it and water rushes across it every time it rains. When aprons crumble, they spoil the look of the property and can break away at the street edge. Curbs and gutters have a related role, guiding water along an edge and keeping soil and mulch where they belong. A Nashville lot with a ditch or a steep street grade has its own demands.

Our crews form aprons and curbs to the right profile and thickness for the loads they carry. We check the grade at the street, build a stable base and add steel where it will hold the slab together. Landscape curbs can be formed in a continuous ribbon with smooth curves, colored or stamped to match the property. We tool the edges, cut joints and finish the surface with grip in mind, then manage curing so the edge stays crisp.

Profile for the job

Aprons, rolled curbs and gutter pans each have a shape that moves water correctly.

Strong at the edge

Thicker concrete and steel keep the street edge from breaking away under vehicles.

Landscape curbs

Continuous curbs hold mulch and soil and give beds a crisp, finished edge.

Grade at the street

We match the slope at the street so water flows and cars can enter smoothly.

Questions

Curbs and Aprons FAQ

Do I need a permit for an apron?

Aprons often touch public right-of-way, so a permit or inspection may be needed. We help you check.

Why do aprons crumble?

Heavy loads, a thin slab and water at the edge are common causes. A better base and thickness help.

Can landscape curbs be colored?

Yes. Color and texture can match your patio or driveway.

Can you repair part of an apron?

Small areas can sometimes be repaired. Widespread damage is better replaced.

Do curbs help drainage?

Yes. A curb or gutter pan guides water along a planned path.
