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 Pontypridd depend on what is found below the surface, so the survey looks closely at ground conditions, access and drainage. Pontypridd mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
Typical projects we can quote for in Pontypridd include preparing a drive to meet a new dropped kerb, digging out an old drive and building a permeable sub-base and fitting setts or steel edging around a new drive. More about driveway edging and borders.

Planning in Pontypridd
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. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
