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.
Groundwork prices in Carmarthen depend on what is found below the surface, so the survey looks closely at ground conditions, access and drainage. In and around Carmarthen, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
Across Dyfed, the projects we price include setting a channel drain across a garage entrance, replacing failed edges that have started to crumble and adding a soakaway so water stays on the property. More about driveway edging and borders.

Planning in Carmarthen
Wales has its own permitted development rules on the same principle: a front-garden hard surface should be porous or drain to a permeable area on the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
In Wales, new construction with drainage implications covering 100 m² or more can also need approval from the council's SuDS Approving Body (SAB). Most domestic drives are smaller than that, but larger drives and extensions are checked at survey.
General information for Wales, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
West Wales has a mild but wet climate, which makes drainage the first question on any resin job. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Carmarthen jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
How it works
The steps are simple: guide price, free survey, written quote with a fixed price once the specification is agreed, then a date that suits you and the weather.
