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 Stretford we check levels against door thresholds, look for shallow services and plan where spoil and materials will go. Many homes in Stretford have existing tarmac or block drives that can be assessed for an overlay or a rebuild.
Typical projects we can quote for in Stretford include fitting setts or steel edging around a new drive, replacing failed edges that have started to crumble and preparing a drive to meet a new dropped kerb. More about driveway edging and borders.

Planning in Stretford
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 North West is one of the wetter parts of England, so laying days are picked carefully and drainage under the drive gets extra attention. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Stretford jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
How it works
You start with a guide price, we visit to measure and check the site, you get a written quote, and we book the work for suitable weather.
