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.
In Bangor, County Down, the survey for this work is about levels, falls and ground conditions: where water goes now, what is under the surface and how materials will reach the site. Many homes in Bangor, County Down have existing tarmac or block drives that can be assessed for an overlay or a rebuild.
Across County Down, the projects we price include preparing a drive to meet a new dropped kerb, fitting setts or steel edging around a new drive and replacing failed edges that have started to crumble. More about driveway edging and borders.

Planning in Bangor, County Down
Northern Ireland has its own permitted development order for houses, with conditions on hard surfaces and drainage: the simplest route is a surface that keeps rainwater within your boundary. 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 it is worth checking with your council's planning team before work starts.
