Working in Poole

Poole is about 4.6 miles from Bournemouth, with Bournemouth (4.6 mi), Christchurch (9.0 mi) and Weymouth (21.9 mi) close by. Survey visits in Poole cover the BH15, BH14, BH17 postcode districts and the surrounding area.

Poole has a broad mix of housing, from terraces near the centre to detached homes on the edges. Across Dorset, the projects we price include widening a drive into the front garden for a second car, turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface and replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build.

Planning in Poole

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. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.
