Turf, Pavers & Concrete Curbing: One Yard, Start to Finish
This is the case study to look at if you want to see how a project actually unfolds — we photographed this Littleton yard at every stage, from bare ground through paver banding, concrete curbing, and the finished lawn. No befores-and-afters with the middle missing: this is the middle.
The scope
- Paver banding set on a compacted base to frame the lawn areas
- Poured concrete curbing for crisp, permanent bed edges — no plastic edging to heave out
- Soil preparation and grading before any turf went down
- New turf installed last, over finished edges — so the lines stay clean for good
Where it started
The build, in order
Edges before grass — always. The paver banding and concrete curbing went in first, on proper base and forms, so every lawn line was locked in permanently before a single roll of turf arrived. Curbing poured in place means the edge is one continuous piece of concrete: it will not shift, heave, or need resetting the way stake-in edging does.
The result
Clean, permanent lines and a healthy lawn that went in over finished edges instead of construction traffic. Years from now, the curbing will still hold that exact line — that is the point of building in the right order.
Complete outdoor living projects like this one begin around $35,000. We design and build the whole sequence — from first sketch to final stone.
