Planning in Galashiels
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.
Weather and working days
The South of Scotland mixes wet western hills with drier eastern lowlands, and frost is common in winter. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Galashiels jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
