Concrete Curbing Around Pools: Clean Edges, Safer Spaces

The Art of Concrete Curbing: Enhancing Your Landscape with Durability and Style

When it comes to improving the look and functionality of your outdoor space, concrete curbing offers a perfect combination of durability, customization, and visual appeal. But what sets our concrete curbing apart? Let’s take a deeper dive into how our process works and why it’s the smart choice for your landscaping needs.

A well-designed pool area isn’t just about water—it’s about the entire space around it. From landscaping to safety and aesthetics, every detail counts. One upgrade that often gets overlooked? Concrete curbing. Installing concrete edging around your pool can improve functionality, enhance safety, and give your outdoor space a polished, resort-style finish.

At J&J Custom Curbing, we offer custom concrete borders built to withstand water exposure, foot traffic, and Texas weather—while making your pool area look better than ever.

Why Concrete Curbing Works Perfectly for Pools

1. Keeps Landscaping in Place

Pools are surrounded by gravel, mulch, or garden beds—and curbing keeps those materials from spilling into walkways, drains, or the water itself.

No more mulch floating in the pool after a storm.

2. Improves Poolside Safety

Smooth concrete curbing creates clear boundaries around the pool, reducing tripping hazards and helping guide foot traffic—especially important for kids and guests.

3. Enhances Drainage and Flow

Properly installed curbing helps guide water runoff away from your pool deck and landscaping, preventing puddles and erosion.

4. Adds Resort-Style Appeal

Custom-colored and textured curbing gives your pool area a clean, intentional look that feels finished and professionally designed.

5. Reduces Maintenance

Curbing cuts down on the time you’ll spend sweeping debris off the deck or skimming out displaced landscape materials.

Best Poolside Applications for Concrete Curbing

  • Between turf and decking to stop turf edges from fraying
  • Around palm trees or flower beds near the water
  • Framing gravel or mulch zones to reduce movement
  • Separating play areas or patios from the pool deck
  • Along fence lines or screen enclosures for a unified finish
