Best Paver Edging in Toronto That Actually Lasts

Modern Toronto parking pad built with permeable pavers and reinforced cement edge restraint for strength and stability.

In Toronto’s harsh freeze-thaw climate, proper paver edging makes the difference between a long-lasting interlocking paver patio or driveway and one that shifts. At Green Apple Landscaping, we use two proven edge restraint methods that keep your pavers solid, stable, and looking great year after year.

1. Aluminium Paver Edge Restraint — Best for Grass Borders

Where your pavers meet lawn, aluminium edging is our go-to choice.

Why it works in Ontario:

  • Corrosion-resistant and lightweight, ideal for walkways and patios

  • Virtually invisible once the grass grows in

  • The surrounding turf helps hold the edge down, preventing frost heave

  • We only use this for walkways and patios, not driveways

When installed properly into the compacted base (not just the sand layer), aluminium edging stays put for decades.

2. Custom Cement Edge Restraint — For Gardens and Parking Pads

For driveways, parking pads, or garden edges where vehicles or frost put more stress on the pavers, we install a custom 6000 PSI fibre-reinforced cement edge restraint mixed and troweled on site.

Why it’s the strongest choice:

  • Fibre reinforcement resists cracking and frost heave

  • Bonds directly to the paver base for a seamless edge

  • Handles vehicle loads without movement or separation

This method creates a continuous structural barrier that outperforms plastic or pre-cast options in Ontario conditions.

Our Proven Toronto Approach

  • Aluminium edging for patio + walkway lawn borders — clean, strong, and long-lasting

  • Custom cement edging for gardens, driveways, and parking pads — built for real strength

This combination has kept our Toronto-area paver projects level and maintenance-free through years of Ontario winters.
