Planning in Barking
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
London is one of the drier parts of the UK, but heavy summer downpours on small, mostly paved plots are exactly what front-garden drainage rules were written for. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.
