Clean Bed Borders

Give Your Beds the Definition They Deserve Why Professional Edging Transforms Your Yard

Professionally cut edges are one of the fastest ways to make your property look well-maintained. Clean borders separate lawn from garden, prevent grass creep, and create a finished look that lasts.

CleanYards uses hand tools and half-moon edgers to create deep, uniform edges around every bed, walkway, and driveway on your property. We cut at the right angle and depth to keep your borders sharp through the season.

✏️

Crisp Definition

A professionally cut edge creates a sharp, uniform line that visually separates your lawn from your garden beds and gives the whole yard a polished look.

🍃

Prevents Grass Intrusion

A well-cut trench acts as a physical barrier, slowing grass runners and rhizomes from creeping into your garden beds and reducing ongoing maintenance.

Polished Appearance

Clean, precise borders are the single detail that makes a property look professionally maintained. Crisp lines elevate everything around them.

💰

Mulch Containment

Proper edging creates a trench that keeps mulch inside the bed where it belongs, preventing spillover onto walkways and lawn areas after rain or wind.

What Professional Edging Includes

Professional Garden Bed Edging

Our team uses half-moon edgers and hand tools to cut clean, deep trenches along every garden bed border. Proper edging defines where lawn ends and garden begins, giving your property a maintained, professional look.

Each edging service includes:

  • Bed border definition: Clean, uniform cuts along all garden beds, creating a consistent edge depth and angle throughout the property.
  • Grass and sod removal: We remove any grass that has crept into bed edges, restoring the original border line and trench.
  • Walkway and driveway borders: Clean cuts along sidewalks, driveways, and patios to eliminate turf overgrowth and restore hard lines.
  • Full cleanup: After edging, we blow and rake all cuttings so your property looks clean and polished from every angle.

Pair edging with a fresh mulch installation for the most dramatic visual improvement. We typically edge immediately before applying mulch so the beds are fully prepped and contained.

This has been my first year with CleanYards and Sebastian. I have been more than pleased with the work he has done for me. The yard maintenance and the fall clean up have been done very well, much better than I could do myself. I look forward to next Spring when I can have Sebastian do more jobs for me.

Recently had new sod installed. Sebastien and Andre were friendly and helpful in helping me understand the work they would be doing, did a fantastic job, provided a helpful guide and an open channel of communication on advice for future care, and all at a good price. Would recommend Sebastien's business to anyone!

Edging FAQs

What does professional bed edging involve?

We use a half-moon edger and hand tools to cut a clean, consistent trench along the border of your garden beds. This creates a sharp visual line between lawn and garden while preventing grass from creeping in.

How often should garden beds be re-edged?

We recommend re-edging once per season, typically in spring or early summer, to restore the crisp line before applying fresh mulch. High-growth edges may benefit from a mid-season touch-up.

Does edging prevent grass from spreading into beds?

Yes. A properly cut edge creates a physical barrier that slows grass runners and rhizomes from invading your beds. Combined with mulch, it provides an effective two-layer defense against encroachment.

Can you edge along driveways, walkways, and patios?

Absolutely. We edge along all hard surfaces including concrete driveways, paver walkways, and patio borders. This removes turf overgrowth and restores the clean line between lawn and hardscape.
