Opportunities in Landscape Curbing with Tygar Manufacturing, LLC

Tygar Manufacturing, LLC, headquartered in Ball Ground, GA, is the market’s leading provider of landscape curbing equipment and accessories. Founded by experienced curbing contractors, Tygar focuses on delivering a complete turnkey opportunity to its customers, including heavy-duty machinery, a wide range of curb styles and molds, all necessary accessories, and top-notch training, support, and marketing assistance. Tygar does not sell franchises or territories, and there are no on-going fees – we simply provide the most comprehensive program for starting your own curbing business or adding it to your current business.

Most markets for landscaping have become very competitive, with new contractors entering the market all the time. By adding decorative curbing to their business, landscapers can quickly differentiate themselves with a product that is practical, cost-effective, and attractive. Because landscapers already have customers who are willing to pay for value-added services, a ready market exists for selling curbing into that customer base. In addition, curbing leads to more landscaping – flower beds, tree rings, and ground covers need repair and replanting. In most markets, unlike many other landscape services, curbing can be installed at any time of year.

Landscape curbing must be installed by a trained and experienced contractor (its not a do-it-yourself type job), and most curbing jobs can be prepared, extruded and finished all in one day, whereas most other concrete or hardscape jobs require multiple days. Tygar offers its customers a competitive advantage because it provides the training and support necessary to complete expert jobs in a short amount of time, which results in a successful and profitable curbing business.

While the curb machine is the key component to any curbing business, a fully equipped contractor will also need a ground prep machine (usually a sod cutter), a mortar mixer, and a curbing trailer. With new product development initiatives constantly adding residential and commercial curb styles, contractors are assured of having a wide variety of products to sell for both decorative and practical applications. Tygar offers a number of complete curbing packages along with a wide variety of integral colors, release agents, and special additives that were formulated just for the concrete curbing industry. Another essential component is the Tygar training program, which takes place at two locations, Atlanta and Phoenix. Once training is complete and the contractor is installing curb, the Tygar associates are always available for technical support questions.

The demand for landscape curbing is growing rapidly, in both residential and commercial settings, and in most areas of the country, contractors are able to charge a premium for their work. Since their investment is relatively modest, in terms of time and money, curbing contractors tend to become profitable very quickly. All of this ensures that curbing will remain a healthy and viable business for landscapers.
