I see pic after pic of homes in TV that have several different types of decorative curbing or block/stone walls around the landscaped planting beds. I find the vast majority to be very attractive & appealing, but......

My question is this: How deep are they installed and are they placed on any kind of footer? I'm just wondering how much they will settle over time?

At our current home here in B'ham the previous owner had the quik-curb concrete curbing installed around the landscaping about a year before he sold to us. We've been there only four years & already the curbing has settled & is just barely visible above the grass in many places. It's going to be a job to dig up & re-set.

And before we buy in TV I'd just like to know how well these walls & borders are likely to hold up? Did anyone ask about this before you had yours installed?

thanks!
