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 Fort William depend on what is found below the surface, so the survey looks closely at ground conditions, access and drainage. In and around Fort William, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
Across the Highlands and Islands, the projects we price include replacing failed edges that have started to crumble, preparing a drive to meet a new dropped kerb and fitting setts or steel edging around a new drive. More about driveway edging and borders.

Planning in Fort William
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 Highlands and Islands have short laying seasons and wet, exposed weather, so materials and timing are planned well ahead. Laying days in Fort William are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
