Guide model reviewed 7 November 2026. VAT treatment varies between published guides and supplier quotes; no VAT is added automatically. Add it only where your allowances exclude it.
Rate assumptions and source
The calculator applies the selected work rate to the relevant measured quantity and shows each optional item separately. Small jobs may be affected by a minimum visit charge. Specialist preparation, failed supporting layers and unusual disposal requirements should be confirmed in the written scope.
View the published guide used for the main allowance. Optional allowances are budgeting estimates and can differ from a site-specific quotation.

What the driveway kerbing estimate covers
The calculator applies the selected work rate to the relevant measured quantity and shows each optional item separately. Small jobs may be affected by a minimum visit charge. Specialist preparation, failed supporting layers and unusual disposal requirements should be confirmed in the written scope.
The first guide option is precast concrete kerbs supplied and laid. Its allowance is £18–£38 for the relevant unit shown in the result. This is a published-guide starting point; it is not a price offered by a contractor on this website.
Choose the specification and separate allowances
This page models precast concrete kerbs supplied and laid. A different construction or repair method needs a separate allowance rather than an assumption that every job has the same scope.
The project controls include:
- Quoted old-edging removal (£).
Reading the budget breakdown
The results show the measured quantity, the selected work allowance and any separately selected items. A volume, unit count or coverage result is a quantity check, not a construction design. Where the model uses a minimum visit allowance or whole bags, the displayed total will not fall in direct proportion to a very small area.
Use the optional contingency to make a separate budget provision. Add a quoted fixed allowance only for work outside the model’s stated scope. Check the VAT basis before selecting the VAT adjustment.
Compare quotations for driveway kerbing
Give contractors the same measurements and work description. Ask them to identify the main work, preparation, disposal, access requirements, drainage and any making-good that applies to this project. An apparent saving can simply mean that a different part of the scope has been priced.
Highway kerbs and approved vehicle crossings are separate work from private driveway edging. Keep the agreed specification with the quote, including any exclusions and the way changes discovered during the work will be authorised.
