Slate curbs in the garden.

Slate curbs are perfect for separating environments in the garden, demarcating perfect paths and paths, making flower beds around trees or separating a stone paving from other areas such as the garden lawn.

Unlike concrete, terracotta or formed stone curbs, slate curbs are not porous, so they do not absorb dirt and keep their beautiful dark gray black appearance intact, shiny when wet.

Placing curbs or garden borders.

Since they are straight curbs, it is better not to think about creating curved elements, design straight shapes, you can also make curves but they must be curves of great amplitude.

To make a curb, it is best to draw the lines with rope and some stakes to be able to place them perfectly, if you place the slate borders on a bed of sand of 2 to 4 cm. It will allow you to seat them and adjust the height and hide the small imperfections in the thickness of each piece, let's not forget that it is natural stone, each piece is unique.

Garden fences made with curbs or slate pegs.

Another increasingly used use and with very original aesthetic results are the fences separating rooms made with curbs or slate pegs placed vertically.

It is recommended to make a small aligned trench where you can plant and place the slate pegs and secure them with concrete or mortar.

To make fences, a 3 cm piece of slate curb is used; they weigh less and are visually lighter.
