FRANCHISE RESALES

Buy a Curb-Ease Franchise

Curb-Ease is a concrete landscape-edging franchise that installs continuous decorative borders for residential and commercial clients. Founded by Garry Tynan in British Columbia in 1996, the company began franchising in 2005. Its edging is made with integral-color concrete, where pigment is mixed throughout the material rather than applied as a surface slurry or release powder, so borders hold their color and resist fading over time.

The model is home-based and mobile. Owners operate truck- or trailer-mounted curbing equipment within a protected territory, serving homeowners, HOAs, and property managers without the need for retail premises. Work is project-based and outdoor, covering both residential landscape borders and larger commercial curbing jobs.

Curb-Ease has expanded across Canada and entered the United States, opening its first US franchise in North Carolina in 2019. The brand remains founder-led, with more than two decades of operating experience behind its standardized installation systems, equipment packages, and territory-based franchise structure.

Why buy a Curb-Ease Franchise?

Buying a Curb-Ease franchise is a route into a specialized outdoor-improvement niche that faces limited direct franchised competition. The brand’s integral-color concrete is positioned as a more durable alternative to slurry- or powder-colored curbing, supporting a premium reputation with homeowners and property managers who want borders that last.

The ownership model is built for low overhead. It is home-based with no retail lease, runs on truck- or trailer-mounted equipment, and operates within a protected territory, giving owners room to scale from solo operation to a crew-run business. Residential and commercial work provides more than one source of demand within a resilient home-services category.

Curb-Ease – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    Incoming owners receive around two weeks of initial training, including 20 hours of on-the-job instruction plus classroom sessions covering installation and sales processes. Ongoing support runs through a toll-free help line, online resources, a proprietary CRM system, and field mentoring, while corporate supplies marketing assets, digital-marketing guidance, and an international call center to generate and manage leads. Resale buyers should confirm what transfer training and CRM access the franchisor provides when an existing territory changes ownership.

  2. Ideal Owner

    The model suits a hands-on, outdoors-oriented operator who is comfortable with physical work and running equipment in the field. No prior concrete-curbing experience is required, but owners need sales aptitude to win business from homeowners, HOAs, and property managers, plus the project-management discipline to schedule and complete installations to standard. Candidates who are happy to work solo at first, build a small crew as the territory grows, and follow a proven system tend to fit best.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    Curb-Ease has built its reputation as a specialist in continuous concrete edging since 1996, expanding across Canada and into the United States and earning listings in major franchise directories including Entrepreneur and Franchising.com. Its standing rests on product quality, long-tenured franchisees, and a replicable turnkey system rather than on widely publicized award rankings. For resale buyers, brand-level recognition should be weighed alongside the specific territory's local reputation, online reviews, and referral relationships.

  4. Industry / Market

    Curb-Ease sits within the US landscaping services market, estimated at about $176.7 billion in 2026 (IBISWorld) and growing at a low-single-digit annual rate. Demand for decorative concrete edging is driven by homeowner spending on curb appeal, interest in low-maintenance landscaping with defined borders, and ongoing grounds investment by commercial property managers. The work is weather-dependent and seasonal in colder regions, so buyers evaluating an existing territory should review how revenue is spread across the year and the local strength of demand.
