Planning in Washington

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 East has cool winters, so resin is laid in the warmer months or on dry, mild days when ground and air are above about 5°C. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Washington jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.

Resin driveways in Washington: questions

Is the price fixed for Washington jobs?

Yes, once the scope and specification are agreed in writing. If hidden ground conditions turn up, we explain and agree any change with you before doing extra work.

Can you match a resin colour I have seen in Washington?

Often, yes. Tell us where you saw it or show us a photo, and we will bring the closest blends to the survey to compare in daylight.

Who approves dropped kerbs in Washington?

Dropped kerb consent comes from your council as local highway authority. We help with the application and get your drive ready to meet the new crossing.
