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 Aberdare we check levels against door thresholds, look for shallow services and plan where spoil and materials will go. Many homes in Aberdare have existing tarmac or block drives that can be assessed for an overlay or a rebuild.
Typical projects we can quote for in Aberdare include preparing a drive to meet a new dropped kerb, digging out an old drive and building a permeable sub-base and adding a soakaway so water stays on the property. More about driveway edging and borders.

Planning in Aberdare
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.
General information for Wales, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
South Wales is wetter than most of England, so a permeable build or a planned route for water is essential on every drive. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Mid Glamorgan, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
