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 Irvine we check levels against door thresholds, look for shallow services and plan where spoil and materials will go. Irvine mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
Across Ayrshire, the projects we price include replacing failed edges that have started to crumble, fitting setts or steel edging around a new drive and adding a soakaway so water stays on the property. More about driveway edging and borders.

Planning in Irvine
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.
General information for Scotland, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
The West of Scotland is one of the wettest parts of the UK, which makes permeable driveways and careful laying-day planning especially important. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.
How it works
You start with a guide price, we visit to measure and check the site, you get a written quote, and we book the work for suitable weather.
