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 Daventry depend on what is found below the surface, so the survey looks closely at ground conditions, access and drainage. Many homes in Daventry have existing tarmac or block drives that can be assessed for an overlay or a rebuild.
In Daventry we can price work such as adding a soakaway so water stays on the property, preparing a drive to meet a new dropped kerb and replacing failed edges that have started to crumble. More about driveway edging and borders.

Planning in Daventry
In England, a new or replaced hard surface of more than 5 m² in a front garden is permitted development only if it is porous, or if rainwater drains to a lawn, border or soakaway within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
Permitted development rights apply to houses, not flats or maisonettes, and some conservation areas have Article 4 directions that remove them. Listed buildings can need consent if railings or historic walls are affected.
General information for England, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
The East Midlands sits around the UK average for rainfall, with a mix of clay vales and lighter ground that changes what the base needs. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.
