Colored Concrete Curbing
A landscape border should support the colors already around your home, not look like a gray strip dropped into the yard. Colored concrete curbing lets you match the edge to your brick, siding, roof or mulch. We blend more than one color variation for a natural look and reinforce every curb with stainless steel cable.
The Process
Colored concrete curbing is a continuous landscape border with color added to the concrete, so the edge matches your home and landscape instead of standing out as plain gray. We use a base color with accent variation, which gives the curb a natural look beside mulch, stone and plantings.
Most customers start with the colors already on the house. Brick, siding, trim, roof shingles and mulch all give clues for a color that fits. We bring samples to your estimate and compare them outdoors, in daylight, beside the materials they need to match.
Color Selection
The goal is a border that looks connected to your home. We help you compare real samples outdoors, and you can preview the range on our color chart.
Color Details
Color variation is what keeps the curb from looking flat. We blend more than one variation so the border reads like natural material and fits the landscape around it.
The base color sets the overall tone of the curb. It is usually matched to the home's brick, siding or stone so the border looks like it belongs.
An accent color adds slight shifts in tone across the surface, the way real stone varies. It keeps a long run of curb from looking like one solid painted strip.
Sun and weather wear on any colored surface. Resealing every 2–3 years protects the color and keeps it from looking dull.
Where It Works
Colored curbing fits properties where the border needs to define space while still looking connected to the materials already in the yard.
Common uses
A color-varied border gives foundation beds a finished outline without pulling attention from the house. We hold samples up against your siding, brick and mulch so the curb ties into the home instead of standing apart from it.

Around trees and planting islands, a warmer or darker color can blend with bark, mulch and shade. A lighter blend stands out against dark mulch so the shape of the bed reads clearly from the street.

Colored curbing does the same job as a plain concrete edge, but it lets you match the border to your home. It is a good fit if you want the curb to look like part of the design rather than a gray strip.
The simple routine
Rinse, reseal and keep runoff away, and the color stays true.
Long-Term Care
Colored curbing keeps its look with gentle cleaning and a fresh coat of sealer every few years.
We recommend resealing colored curbing every 2–3 years. Sealer shields the color from sun and weather, so the curb keeps its tone longer.
A garden hose and a soft brush handle most dirt. Avoid bleach, strong cleaners and close-range pressure washing, which can strip sealer and lighten the color. Ask us before treating a tough stain.
Fertilizer granules and muddy runoff can stain a colored surface. Sweep spilled fertilizer off the curb and point downspouts away from it so the color stays even.
If you expand a bed later, we can compare new color samples with your existing curb and help you choose the closest match for the new section.
The Stryker Difference
Color is a personal choice. We show you real samples, tell you honestly how they will look outdoors, and build a border that belongs with your landscape.
We layer more than one color variation for a natural look and compare samples beside your siding, brick and mulch, so the curb fits the house.
We pay close attention to curb details, including yards with tight curves and corners. That matters when a colored border needs to look intentional from the street and from the patio.
Stainless steel cable runs through our curbing to reinforce the border and help it hold its line.

Common Questions
Most colored curbs use a base color plus at least one accent variation. That mix gives the surface a natural look. You choose the combination from samples during your free estimate.
No, and that is on purpose. Slight shifts in tone make the curb look like natural material. If you prefer a more even look, tell us at the estimate and we will steer you toward a calmer blend.
Start with your brick, siding or roof color, then look at your mulch. We compare samples beside those materials in daylight, which is the most reliable way to see how a color will look once installed. You can also browse our color chart ahead of time.
Sun and weather slowly wear on any colored concrete. Sealer helps protect the color, which is why we recommend resealing every 2–3 years. A fresh coat brings back much of the original depth.
Yes. We recommend resealing every 2–3 years to protect the color. Rinse off dirt and let the curb dry before the sealer goes on, or ask us about our curb resealing service.
Often, yes. Businesses use colored curbing to tie sign beds and entrance plantings to their building. We compare samples with your building or brand colors and tell you which is the closest match.
