Planning in Swansea

Wales has its own permitted development rules on the same principle: a front-garden hard surface should be porous or drain to a permeable area on the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.

In Wales, new construction with drainage implications covering 100 m² or more can also need approval from the council's SuDS Approving Body (SAB). Most domestic drives are smaller than that, but larger drives and extensions are checked at survey.

Weather and working days

South Wales is wetter than most of England, so a permeable build or a planned route for water is essential on every drive. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Swansea jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
