Guide prices in the Lothians
Typical costs in Lothian are a little below the UK average. All figures include VAT and are confirmed by written quote after a free survey.
Planning and dropped kerbs
Scotland's householder permitted development rules allow many hard surfaces at a house where the surface is porous or water drains to a permeable area within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
Flats, listed buildings and conservation areas are treated differently, so if any of those apply we suggest a quick check with your council's planning team before work starts.
If cars will cross the pavement in a new place, or the crossing needs widening, consent is needed from your council as roads authority before any kerb work.
Weather and working days
Lothian is one of the drier parts of Scotland, but cold winters and frost make a well-drained, frost-resistant base important.
