A bin store in Edith Weston starts from about £1,000 for a single wheelie bin store fitted on a level paved base, as a guide price. Two and three bin stores, and any new path to the kerb, are priced on the visit. The local priority is placement: many homes here have terraces and outdoor rooms facing Rutland Water, so the store should keep bins out of that view.

Bin stores in Edith Weston

Bin stores in Edith Weston

Edith Weston sits on the south shore of Rutland Water, and a lot of garden work here is designed around the view. Terraces, outdoor rooms and lighting all point towards the water, and the last thing anyone wants in the picture is a row of wheelie bins. We fit composite slatted stores with aluminium doors for one, two or three bins, on a level paved pad, positioned so they are handy for the kitchen but out of the line of sight.

With a number of substantial houses in the village, the route from store to kerb can be longer than usual, so we look at the path as carefully as the store. Sometimes the store sits well away from the house, sometimes right by the kitchen door. We measure your bins, check every lid opens fully once they are inside and give a guide price on the visit, followed by a fixed price in writing.

Edith Weston specifically

What makes Edith Weston different

Edith Weston is on the limestone plateau above the reservoir, and most plots drain reasonably well, though clay pockets turn up. A pad that straddles limestone and a clay pocket can settle unevenly, so we test the ground before designing the base. The village has a conservation area and no Article 4 direction, so normal permitted development rules apply outside listed buildings, and natural paving is the right choice for a pad in the conservation area.

On one of Edith Weston's larger stone houses, a typical job is a two or three bin store tucked to the side, screened from the garden terrace, with a natural paved path out to the road. On smaller homes near the green, it is usually a compact store on a natural stone pad.

Permissions in Edith Weston

  1. PlanningA bin store at the side or back of the house is normally permitted development. In front of the house, a free-standing store technically falls outside householder permitted development, so we check with the council before building one there. Listed buildings and the Edith Weston conservation area have tighter rules, so we check your address before anything is designed. Planning Portal: outbuildings
  2. Design and priceWe measure up, check the ground and the planning position, and give you one fixed written price.

“Lewis and the team have just finished a small block paving drive and a porcelain patio in our garden. They arrived on time and were neat and tidy, work all looks as it should. We would use them again.”

Questions

Bin stores in Edith Weston: questions

What does a bin store cost in Edith Weston?
As a guide, a single wheelie bin store fitted on a level paved base starts from about £1,000. Two and three bin stores, and any new path to the kerb, are priced on the visit. Natural paving and a longer path on a larger plot both affect the total, so we confirm a fixed price in writing.
Is planning permission needed in Edith Weston?
At the side or back of the house, a bin store is normally permitted development. In front of the house, a free-standing store technically falls outside householder permitted development, so we check with Rutland County Council first. Edith Weston has a conservation area and no Article 4 direction.
Where is the best place for a bin store when the garden faces the water?
Usually to the side of the house, between the kitchen and the road, so bins are easy to reach but never in the view from the terrace. We look at sightlines from inside and outside before suggesting a position.
Our garden is mostly limestone. Why test the ground?
Because clay pockets turn up on the plateau. If part of the pad sits on clay, it can settle differently from the rest and twist the store. A quick test hole tells us what the base needs.
