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 Hailsham we check levels against door thresholds, look for shallow services and plan where spoil and materials will go. In and around Hailsham, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
Across East Sussex, the projects we price include fitting setts or steel edging around a new drive, setting a channel drain across a garage entrance and digging out an old drive and building a permeable sub-base. More about driveway edging and borders.

Planning in Hailsham
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.
General information for England, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
The South East is relatively dry, with long laying seasons, but clay soils are common across much of the region and can drain slowly. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
