Kerbing & Edging in Wallasey

Kerbing & Edging in Wallasey

The edge of a driveway in Wallasey does more work than it appears to. It stops blocks and gravel creeping, keeps soil and sand from spilling onto the surface, and gives frontages that clear line that makes a house look cared for, whether that is a Victorian villa near the seafront or an interwar semi inland. Kerbing and edging in Wallasey can be chosen in stone effects for period streets or simple concrete units on newer estates. On exposed plots, firm edging also helps the surface resist the wind and weather that gradually work at loose boundaries. We recommend matching the edge to the main surface closely so the whole frontage looks cohesive.

Planning kerbing & edging in Wallasey

As elsewhere, keep edging and dropped kerbs apart in your mind. Edging within your boundary is part of the driveway. The dropped kerb across the footway is a highways matter that needs approval from Wirral Council. In Wallasey, check whether your street is in a conservation area, since boundary and kerb details may be controlled there. Edge foundations must not undermine garden walls, and concrete bedding should be deep enough to resist the sideways push of cars.
