Driveway edging and borders across South Yorkshire
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.
An unrestrained resin edge crumbles over time, especially where cars turn. A proper edging course is bedded and haunched in concrete so it cannot move.
Across South Yorkshire, the projects we price include digging out an old drive and building a permeable sub-base, fitting setts or steel edging around a new drive and preparing a drive to meet a new dropped kerb.
Prices in South Yorkshire
For Yorkshire and the Humber, where typical costs are a little below the UK average, these are the ranges we would expect before seeing your property.
Driveway edging and borders: £25–£55 per linear metre.
Planning in South Yorkshire
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.
Weather and working days
Rainfall varies widely across Yorkshire, from the drier Vale of York to wetter Pennine towns, and cold snaps shorten the laying season at either end. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Sheffield jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
