Working in Chelmsford
Chelmsford is the main centre for our work in Essex, with Billericay (7.7 mi), Witham (8.5 mi) and Maldon (8.8 mi) close by. Survey visits in Chelmsford cover the CM1 postcode district and the surrounding area.
Plot sizes and existing surfaces vary a lot across Chelmsford, so the survey comes before any fixed figure. Across Essex, the projects we price include restoring a tired, patchy resin drive, deep-cleaning a resin drive that has gone green in the shade and treating moss and algae under trees.

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