Driveway edging and borders across Gwynedd

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 Bangor we can price work such as fitting setts or steel edging around a new drive, setting a channel drain across a garage entrance and preparing a drive to meet a new dropped kerb.

Labour and material costs in North Wales run below the UK average, and the guide figures below reflect that. They include VAT and are confirmed after a survey.

Planning in Gwynedd

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.

Weather and working days

North Wales ranges from mild coastal towns to wetter upland areas, so drainage and laying days are planned with the weather in mind. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.
