Working in Ely

Around Ely, longer drives and rural access are common, so deliveries and mixing space are planned at survey. Typical projects we can quote for in Ely include digging out an old drive and building a permeable sub-base, preparing a drive to meet a new dropped kerb and adding a soakaway so water stays on the property.

Planning in Ely
In England, a new or replaced hard surface of more than 5 m² in a front garden is permitted development only if it is porous, or if rainwater drains to a lawn, border or soakaway within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
Permitted development rights apply to houses, not flats or maisonettes, and some conservation areas have Article 4 directions that remove them. Listed buildings can need consent if railings or historic walls are affected.
Weather and working days
The East of England is the driest part of the UK, which gives a long resin laying season, though heavy clays in places mean the sub-base needs designing for slow drainage. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Cambridgeshire, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
