What does an edging or kerb job involve?
Edging is the fixed restraint around the outside of block paving. Because the blocks are only held by friction and jointing sand, they need a firm edge on every side that is not against a wall, or they slowly move outwards, the joints open and the surface starts to dip.
Dropped kerbs in Northern Ireland go through DfI Roads, so we build that timing into the plan for new drives.
- Raised edges to beds and lawns
- New kerbs or soldier courses bedded on concrete
- Re-setting loose or missing edging on existing paving
- Concrete haunching behind the edge
- Steps and risers in block or kerb units
What the survey covers
- Where water collects now and where it can go
- Buried services near the crossing or channel
- Levels of the pavement, kerb and drive
- How the new work ties into the paving
- Who must approve the work and how long that takes
Rules for front drives in County Fermanagh
In Northern Ireland, a hard surface between the front of the house and the road that covers or replaces more than 5 m² must be porous or permeable, or drain to a permeable area within the property, to be permitted development.
Hard surfaces within the grounds of a listed building need listed building consent. Planning is handled by your district council, so check with its planning office if you are unsure.
Dropped kerbs in Northern Ireland are approved by DfI Roads (the Department for Infrastructure), not the council; check planning separately with the council.
General guidance, not legal advice. Your survey confirms what applies to your home. See the planning guide.

Who approves an edging or kerb job in County Fermanagh?

Yes, and it usually should be, so the levels match and the paving is only disturbed once.
