What is included?

Edge restraint is a solid line of kerbs, blocks or setts bedded and haunched in concrete along the sides of a tarmac surface, so the material cannot spread sideways or break away when wheels run near the edge.

  • Line and level set out
  • Trench dug for the kerb and its concrete bed
  • Kerbs, blocks or setts bedded on concrete
  • Concrete haunch on the back of the edge
  • Tarmac finished tight to the edge
  • Drop kerbs or flush details at gates and lawns

Rules in Lincolnshire

Repairs, paths and edging work rarely need planning permission. In England, a new hard surface over 5 m² in front of a house needs planning permission unless it is porous or drains to a lawn, border or soakaway within the property.
