  • , so that’s why I’m thinking of replacing them.

    I need to replace roughly 83 feet of wooden edgers which will cost around $200 for the concrete edgers.

    Quarry spalls are stones in the shape of a brick? This would definitely be a good option but that’s not as aesthetically appealing to us as these red concrete ones.

  • Thanks, appreciate that. I would generally agree with you. The experience I’ve had so far with the wood is that it started to rot below the surface. That’s why I’m pivoting away from using it again.

    To be fair, it doesn’t look like as if they’ve cared much for the wooden edgers. Do you have a suggestion as to how to take care of it in this particular use case?

  • Thanks for the advice, I live on the California coast, so weather is never below 45 degrees. What would you suggest in this scenario, assuming tamper sand is a good option for colder climates?

  • Thanks! That’s correct, it’s not connected at all to the turf, only nailed to the next plank.

    Should I put anything underneath the concrete edgers apart from soil? Gravel maybe?

    I live on the California coast, so I won’t be experiencing cold winters, or snow for that matter.

    Replacing Wooden Edges

    Hi all,

    We bought a house last year and the backyard has artificial turf. We don’t like the wooden edging the previous owners built in so we were thinking of using concrete edgers instead.

    Does anyone have experience with that? Anything we need to be cautious of? I hope I don’t need to remove the turf to do this, so curious about your experience.
