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 Stranraer we check levels against door thresholds, look for shallow services and plan where spoil and materials will go. In and around Stranraer, 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 Stranraer include digging out an old drive and building a permeable sub-base, fitting setts or steel edging around a new drive and setting a channel drain across a garage entrance. More about driveway edging and borders.

Planning in Stranraer
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 South of Scotland mixes wet western hills with drier eastern lowlands, and frost is common in winter. Laying days in Stranraer are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
