Do I need planning permission for a new driveway?
The quick answer is - No
From 1 October 2008 new rules apply for households wanting to hard surface over their front gardens. If the surface to be covered is more than five square metres, you will need planning permission for laying traditional, impermeable driveways that do not control rainwater running off onto roads. This will apply to new driveways, drive extensions or drive replacements. You will NOT need planning permission if the surface to be covered is less than five square metres or if the new surface is permeable or porous or if a traditional surface is laid and the rainwater is directed to a lawn or border to drain naturally or if it is directed to a soakaway via a drainage channel. An estimated 70% of existing driveways already drain in a sustainable way.
Do you need access to my house or power?
No, all our tools are powered from our generators.
When do I pay for the job?
We require a 10% deposit to get started, with the full balance being settled upon completion.
(Staged payments may be required on high value jobs).
Do I need to be in for you to complete the work?
No, we can complete all the work while you are out.
How long will it be before I can use my new driveway?
Practically straight away after completion.
Will my neighbours be affected?
Inconvenience is kept to a minimum as a result of our polite workforce and our clean and responsible working practices.
