Fluted edging - is it still produced? - Trying to source fluted edging

[m4rkb]

Hi,

I'm hoping someone will be able to help me. I've bought a house which has a paved area at the back with fluted edging.

I need to replace approximately 10 metres of edging but I'm struggling to find a supplier. The edging that I'm after is actually on the paving expert website and is quoted as one of the 'more popular' decorative edging. It's under the heading 'Decorative Concrete Edging', and then 'Decorative' when you click on the link below.

Pavying Expert - Decorative Edging

I've been advised that my existing edging is a 'brindle' colour, comes in 15cm x 60cm lengths, and may have been manufactured by Bradstone a while back (but has since been discontinued).

I live in Derby and am hoping that someone out there may be able to help!!

Many thanks in advance!!

Thanks for the suggestion, I've scoured the Salvo web with no success.

the fluted looks like a Marshalls product starting from the mid 90's but I never took any notice to when they were discontinued

have you tried phoning Marshalls on 0370 411 2233, if any are available from Marshalls they will know by checking the stock list or you could contact your local Travis Perkins or Jewsons as they also have a link up nation wide for products stocked at their branches in other towns

good luck

Try Westminster stone they may do them

Thanks Mickg and cookiewales, I try giving them both a ring tomorrow.

[m4rkb]

Tried them both, no luck unfortunately!

[mickg]

have you though of using something what's a contrasting colour / texture or to change the existing edging so they are all new ?

if a product is obsolete then that's the only way forward

We have considered it, but ideally after a flat top edging where the joins are not clearly visible...

Copy and paste this link. Irish firm but it's easy enough to get a pallet or two over the Irish Sea

Hi Mark, see you have still had no joy then (Mark visited our centre and we tried to help but cannot find these things anywhere)

Pablo- we tried the Kilsaran route but they are different size and colour.

I think a total revamp is the only way forward
