Preston has everything from tight terraced frontages to large suburban drives, so no two quotes look the same. Typical projects we can quote for in Preston include widening a drive into the front garden for a second car, turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface and overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive.

Planning in Preston
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 North West is one of the wetter parts of England, so laying days are picked carefully and drainage under the drive gets extra attention. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Preston jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
