What driveway edging and borders involve
Driveway edging is the restraint fixed around a resin surface, such as granite setts, block, steel or timber, that holds the edge in place, gives a clean line against lawns and borders, and frames the colour of the resin.
Before quoting groundworks in Montrose we check levels against door thresholds, look for shallow services and plan where spoil and materials will go. In and around Montrose, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
Typical projects we can quote for in Montrose include digging out an old drive and building a permeable sub-base, preparing a drive to meet a new dropped kerb and setting a channel drain across a garage entrance. More about driveway edging and borders.

Planning in Montrose
Scotland's householder permitted development rules allow many hard surfaces at a house where the surface is porous or water drains to a permeable area within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
Flats, listed buildings and conservation areas are treated differently, so if any of those apply we suggest a quick check with your council's planning team before work starts.

Weather and working days
Tayside has cold winters and a shorter laying season, so jobs are usually booked for the warmer months. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
