Kerbing & Edging in Wavertree

Kerbing & Edging in Wavertree

A neat edge is what makes a Wavertree frontage look properly finished, and it is often the detail people notice first from the street. Along the line between your driveway, the front lawn and the pavement, kerbs and edging do the quiet job of holding the surface in place and keeping soil, gravel and block paving where they belong. On a dense Victorian terrace, where every square metre is on show, crisp edging can transform a tired frontage even before the main surface changes. Kerbing and edging in Wavertree can use concrete, stone-effect or block-style units, chosen to match the house and the street. For driveways with loose or flexible surfaces, a solid edge restraint is particularly important, and it is worth sorting before the main surface goes down.

Planning kerbing & edging in Wavertree

Be careful to keep two things separate. Edging that sits within your own boundary is part of your driveway; the dropped kerb at the pavement edge belongs to the highway, and altering it is a matter for Liverpool City Council. In Wavertree, where frontages are shallow, haunching and foundations for the edging need to be planned so they do not interfere with boundary walls or services. Straight lines usually look best against terrace brickwork, while gentle curves suit wider plots. A decent edge also helps protect the surface from heavy tyres turning in tight spaces.
