Working in Bournemouth
Bournemouth is the main centre for our work in Dorset, with Christchurch (4.4 mi), Poole (4.6 mi) and New Milton (9.7 mi) close by. Survey visits in Bournemouth cover the BH2, BH4, BH1 postcode districts and the surrounding area.
Bournemouth has a broad mix of housing, from terraces near the centre to detached homes on the edges. In Bournemouth we can price work such as digging out an old drive and building a permeable sub-base, preparing a drive to meet a new dropped kerb and fitting setts or steel edging around a new drive.

Planning in Bournemouth
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 South West gets more rain than the east of England, especially on higher ground, so permeability and falls matter on every drive. Laying days in Bournemouth are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
Resin driveways in Bournemouth: questions
Is the price fixed for Bournemouth jobs?
Yes, once the scope and specification are agreed in writing. If hidden ground conditions turn up, we explain and agree any change with you before doing extra work.
Who approves dropped kerbs in Bournemouth?
Dropped kerb consent comes from your council as local highway authority. We help with the application and get your drive ready to meet the new crossing.
Can you lay resin in Bournemouth in winter?
On dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, yes. The South West gets more rain than the east of England, especially on higher ground, so permeability and falls matter on every drive.
