Belgian block is the granite curbing you see on so many New Jersey streets and driveways. It gives a hard, clean edge that stands up to tires and snowplows and makes a plain asphalt or concrete driveway look finished.
Where we use it
- Driveway edges and aprons. It protects the driveway’s edge from crumbling and gives it a clean line.
- Sidewalks and lawns. It separates hardscape from grass, as in the sidewalk project on this page.
- Garden beds. It’s a durable border that won’t rot or heave like plastic or wood edging.
How it’s set
Each block is set in a concrete base, aligned to a string line, and backed with concrete on the soil side. That’s what keeps a curb line straight after years of plowing.

Belgian Block & Curbing in Colonia: common questions
Why set Belgian block in concrete?
Curbing takes hits from tires and snowplows. Setting each block in a concrete base with concrete backing keeps the line straight and stops blocks from rolling out.
Can you add Belgian block to an existing driveway?
Yes. We cut a clean edge along the existing driveway and set the curbing against it. It's one of the most cost-effective upgrades for an asphalt driveway.
Do you replace curbing damaged by plows?
Yes. We reset or replace damaged sections and match the existing line as closely as the stone allows.
Tree roots lifted my walkway. Will that happen again?
We can't stop a tree from growing, but we can plan around it. We route the walk away from major roots where possible, deepen and widen the base, and with pavers any section that moves can be lifted and reset instead of torn out.
Is Colonia part of Woodbridge?
Yes. Colonia is a section of Woodbridge Township with its own ZIP code (07067). Township rules apply for permits.
