So you have chosen what colour you are going to use and have decided to go ahead with your project. Have you imagined what your finished driveway is going to look like? Think about the extra touches you are going to use to complete your project?
No matter how big or small your project is, it's the little touches that can turn an excellent finished product into a fantastic product. Small projects still be striking with the right finishes.

    Whether you have a Driveway, Patio, steps or pathway, resin bound will need some sort of edging, this can be any type such as:


    -Aluminium edging

    Aluminium edging tends to be the most inexpensive option; however, this does not mean that it lacks quality. It provides a level, modest border that is both beautiful and functional since it acts so perfectly as a practical edge. Not only this but this particular trim can act as movement joints and therefore defend against expansion or cracking within the sub-surface.
    Aluminium trim is available in both straight and flexible edging, it can fit any shape and therefore be used to facilitate any design possible by creating a border separating coloura, allowing the customer to personalise their project with perhaps a logo, symbol/motif or even lettering.



    -Block Edging 

    Block edging, while slightly more expensive than aluminium trim remains cost-effective and is the popular option for both domestic and commercial applications. This is used to provide a sharp edge to your driveway or patio and can be used in several creative ways to become a focal point or just a beautiful decorative feature. They offer a range of choices in terms of design, colour and style. The blocks are hard-wearing so will withstand even the harshest weather conditions. Many of our customers opt for blocks due to their low maintenance characteristics just like resin bound stone, and the cleaning process is simple and singular blocks can later be lifted and replaced if required. 



    -Granite Setts

    These are the more costly compared to block edging and aluminium trim; however, it is a clear winner in terms of both strength and character. In principle, granite setts are stone that has been quarried and worked into shape. Although they are not as uni-formed as blocks, they create a look that adds style and an exceptional finish to both contemporary and traditional properties.

    Recognised for being resistant to damage from the elements and heavy traffic, and due to it's natural colouring, there is no risk of fading. This paired with the full range of finishes and the potential for design customisation make granite setts the perfect finish to any project. This type of edging will genuinely stand the test of time. 




    -Paving Slabs

    To make a visual focal point to your installation, not just as an edging tool paving slabs can be used similar to bricks as a flexible edging or to be creative. You can use flexible edging to create patterns within your desired space, but as this is a lightweight material, so it's not sufficiently strong enough to act alone on a drive, so usually used in conjunction with the options above.

      -Existing walls

      Reducing the amount of edging you will need you can use a sturdy existing wall to lay your resin-bound up to, therefore not needing to choose an edging type.

      There are also options to edge your steps available in different sizes and colours to meet your needs.
