Working in Carmarthen
Carmarthen is the main centre for our work in Dyfed, with Llanelli (13.5 mi) and Ammanford (14.2 mi) close by. Survey visits in Carmarthen cover the SA31 postcode district and the surrounding area.
Plots around Carmarthen are often generous, so turning areas and longer runs of edging are part of many quotes. Across Dyfed, the projects we price include turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface, replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build and widening a drive into the front garden for a second car.

Planning in Carmarthen
Wales has its own permitted development rules on the same principle: a front-garden hard surface should be porous or drain to a permeable area on the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
In Wales, new construction with drainage implications covering 100 m² or more can also need approval from the council's SuDS Approving Body (SAB). Most domestic drives are smaller than that, but larger drives and extensions are checked at survey.
Weather and working days
West Wales has a mild but wet climate, which makes drainage the first question on any resin job. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Carmarthen jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
