If your lawn edges keep crumbling into borders or gravel drifts onto paths, professional edging makes an immediate difference. We install crisp, durable borders across DA1 and DA2, from tidy front gardens to larger rear plots. Many clients near Central Park and around Wilmington want edges that look smart all year and reduce weekly trimming. Our edging solutions are designed to suit Dartford gardens and the way you use them.
Dartford’s mix of Victorian terraces, 1930s semis and new developments means no two gardens are the same. Period homes often need sympathetic brick or stone lines, while newer plots benefit from slim metal edging to maximise planting space. In areas such as Greenhithe and Stone, we regularly work with lawns, gravel parking bays and modern paving that need a precise, straight finish. We tailor levels and curves so borders look intentional rather than patched in.
We start with a site visit to confirm lines, levels and drainage, then recommend the best edging type for your garden and budget. Installation is completed cleanly with accurate setting-out, solid anchoring and a tidy handover. You’ll get clear communication, punctual arrival from our South London base (around 45 minutes away), and workmanship backed by our guarantee. Homeowners choose us for neat joins, long-lasting fixing, and borders that stay put through seasons.
Across Dartford Borough we often find compacted sub-bases, mixed clay soils and tight side access, especially by older terraces. We plan deliveries and parking with local restrictions in mind and keep disruption low for neighbours. Where gardens sit near busy routes such as the Dartford Crossing approaches, we prioritise robust edging that won’t shift with vibration and foot traffic. For newer estates around Swanscombe and Greenhithe, we match edging lines to existing paving modules for a seamless look.

For garden edging in the Dartford area, costs typically range from £15–£50 per metre depending on the material and ground conditions. Most homeowners spend around £300–£1,200 for a complete front or rear garden edge, including setting out and installation. Metal edging is often cost-effective for long runs, while stone and brick can be higher due to cutting and bedding. We’ll always price after measuring and confirming levels.
Most garden edging jobs in Dartford are completed in 1 day, especially for straightforward lawn-to-bed borders or gravel restraints. Timing can vary if we’re forming multiple curves, working around existing paving, or replacing old edging that’s set in concrete. Wet ground or heavy clay can also slow excavation and levelling. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule before starting and keep the site tidy so you can still access key areas.
In most cases, garden edging is permitted work and doesn’t require planning permission, as it’s a minor landscaping improvement. However, rules can change if your property is listed, within a conservation area, or if the edging forms part of a new boundary wall or affects public footpaths. We’ll ask the right questions and can advise on sensible heights and placements. If needed, we’ll help you check guidance for Dartford Borough before installation.
Yes—our garden edging installations come with a 10-year warranty on workmanship. This covers issues such as edging movement caused by incorrect fixing, poor setting-out, or inadequate bedding where applicable. Normal wear, accidental damage, or problems caused by later alterations (for example, digging out borders or moving paving) aren’t covered. We also provide care guidance to keep edges looking sharp and to prevent soil build-up or grass overgrowth.
We offer metal edging for crisp, modern lines; brick edging for traditional gardens; stone edging for a premium, natural finish; sleeper edging for raised borders; and plastic edging for budget-friendly restraint. Decorative borders are also available to add character along paths or planting beds. We’ll help you choose based on your garden style, maintenance preferences, and how the edge needs to perform (lawn separation, gravel retention, or level changes). We can also match colours to existing paving.
