How to edge a lawn against a path?
Edging a lawn against a path is all about creating that clean, deliberate divide — not just for looks, but for function too. The first step is always the shape. Whether you’re going for straight lines or gentle curves, use a sharp spade or half-moon edger to cut a tidy border. Once your edge is defined, our flexible lawn edging products slot neatly into place to hold the shape and keep everything in check. Push them into the soil with gentle pressure or use garden pegs if you’re working with gravel or softer ground. The key is consistency — a shallow trench, firm anchoring, and an even height all the way along. Once installed, edging helps stop grass from creeping into your path and keeps mulch or gravel right where you want it. It’s one of those simple touches that makes the whole space feel tidier and better looked after.
What is the cheapest way to edge a lawn?
If you’re after a budget-friendly solution that doesn’t look it, flexible plastic or galvanised steel edging is the way to go. Our collection includes cost-effective lawn edging that’s quick to install and built to last, meaning you don’t have to trade quality for price. Instead of heavy stone or brickwork — which can get pricey and fiddly — these roll-out or interlocking strips give you control over shape and placement without specialist tools. They’re ideal for defining garden beds, separating lawn from gravel paths, or even edging around raised planters. And once they’re in, you’ll spend less time re-cutting borders or pulling out wayward grass. It’s a smart little upgrade that saves you effort and keeps things looking crisp for seasons to come.
