Driveway edging and borders across Derbyshire
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.
The edging is also a design choice. Charcoal setts frame a golden blend, while slim steel edging almost disappears against a lawn.
In Derby we can price work such as setting a channel drain across a garage entrance, digging out an old drive and building a permeable sub-base and preparing a drive to meet a new dropped kerb.

Driveway edging and borders: £25–£60 per linear metre.
Planning in Derbyshire
In England, a new or replaced hard surface of more than 5 m² in a front garden is permitted development only if it is porous, or if rainwater drains to a lawn, border or soakaway within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
Permitted development rights apply to houses, not flats or maisonettes, and some conservation areas have Article 4 directions that remove them. Listed buildings can need consent if railings or historic walls are affected.
Weather and working days
The East Midlands sits around the UK average for rainfall, with a mix of clay vales and lighter ground that changes what the base needs. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Derby jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
Driveway edging and borders in Derbyshire: questions
Who approves dropped kerbs in Derbyshire?
Dropped kerb consent comes from your council as local highway authority. We help with the application and get your drive ready to meet the new crossing.
What postcodes do you cover around Derbyshire?
We cover DE, S, SK, NG and the surrounding districts, including Derby and Chesterfield.
Is the price fixed for Derbyshire jobs?
Yes, once the scope and specification are agreed in writing. If hidden ground conditions turn up, we explain and agree any change with you before doing extra work.
