Why LandscapePros in Coeur d'Alene

Mower-Edge Profiles built for Kootenai County ground

Developing properties in Coeur d'Alene requires a delicate touch to manage the transition from steep, rocky shorelines to the flatter urban grades found throughout this part of Kootenai County. We focus on stabilizing waterfront slopes using heavy-duty riprap and tiered retaining walls to ensure drainage doesn't impact the pristine water quality of Lake Coeur d'Alene. Many of these older downtown lots also have utility lines that haven't been mapped in decades, making precision trenching and careful potholing a mandatory part of our site prep in the city.

That local read is the part that matters. Every mower-edge profiles job we take on in Coeur d'Alene starts with the same discipline: read the soil, read the drainage, and read what the freeze-thaw cycle will do to the finished work three winters from now. Family-owned since 2005 and still run by the Gladish family — the same crew that walks your property is the crew that builds it.

Common Questions

Mower-Edge Profiles questions, answered

How wide does a mower-edge profile need to be for my mower?

The right width depends on your mower's drive wheel width. Standard walk-behind mowers typically have 4–6 inch drive wheels; zero-turn mowers and riding mowers range from 6–10 inches. LandscapePros's standard mow-edge profile is 8 inches wide, which accommodates the vast majority of residential mowers. We confirm your equipment during the estimate before finalizing the profile width — the last thing we want is a mow strip that's an inch too narrow for your specific machine.

Will a mower-edge profile actually eliminate all string trimming?

Nearly all of it, for the areas covered by the profile. The mower wheel rides the surface and the blade cuts clean to the edge on the mow pass — there's nothing left for a trimmer to catch if the profile is correctly sized and installed at the right height relative to the adjacent turf. The exception is if turf grows horizontally over the top of the curbing — a common issue with stoloniferous grasses in warmer climates. North Idaho's cool-season turf (fescue, bluegrass, ryegrass) rarely creeps this aggressively, but we account for it in the height spec if your turf type is prone to spreading.

How does a mow strip differ from standard concrete curbing in terms of cost?

Mow-edge profiles use more concrete per linear foot (wider, flatter profile) than standard bed-edging curbing, so the cost is typically 15–25% higher per linear foot. However, the functional ROI is higher — mow strips are one of the fastest-payback concrete improvements you can make to a residential property. LandscapePros quotes all profile types in the same written estimate so you can compare total cost and decide which approach fits which section of your yard.

Can mow strips be installed along an existing concrete driveway or sidewalk?

Yes, and this is one of the most common mow strip applications. We install the profile parallel to and slightly lower than the existing hardscape surface so there's no lip that a mower deck catches. The specific height relationship between the mow strip and existing concrete is confirmed on-site during the estimate. Where the existing concrete has settled unevenly, we may recommend a small concrete repair first to ensure a consistent ride height across the full run.
