Driveway edging and borders across the Lothians
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.
Typical projects we can quote for in Livingston include setting a channel drain across a garage entrance, replacing failed edges that have started to crumble and digging out an old drive and building a permeable sub-base.

Planning in the Lothians
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.
Weather and working days
Lothian is one of the drier parts of Scotland, but cold winters and frost make a well-drained, frost-resistant base important. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in the Lothians, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
