Concrete Curb Cost Per Linear Foot in 2026

Concrete curbing costs $5-$20 per linear foot depending on the type. Standard straight curb runs $5-10/ft, extruded landscape curbing $6-15/ft, and mountable curb $8-12/ft. A 100-foot residential curb project costs $500-$2,000.

Cost by Curb Type

Straight curb (6"x18"): $5-10/linear foot. Rolled/mountable curb: $8-12/linear foot. Curb and gutter combo: $12-20/linear foot. Extruded landscape curbing: $6-15/linear foot. Decorative/stamped curbing: $10-20/linear foot. Machine-extruded curbing is faster and cheaper for long runs.

Landscape Curbing

Decorative concrete landscape curbing (extruded): $6-15/linear foot installed. Popular for flower beds, tree rings, and pathway borders. Machine-extruded in a continuous pour — no joints, no gaps. Color options: $1-3/ft premium. Stamped patterns: $2-5/ft premium. Average yard needs 100-200 linear feet.

DIY vs. Professional

DIY curbing machines rent for $200-400/day. Concrete cost: $1-2/ft. Total DIY: $3-5/ft. Professional: $6-15/ft. DIY saves money but the learning curve is steep — first 20 feet usually look rough. For straight runs, DIY is feasible. For curves and decorative patterns, hire a pro.
