What driveway extensions and widening involves
A driveway extension adds new hard-standing to an existing drive, usually by taking in part of the front garden, so more cars can park off the road. The new area needs its own excavation and base, and the whole drive is often resurfaced in resin so old and new match.
Before quoting in Llandudno we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Plots around Llandudno are often generous, so turning areas and longer runs of edging are part of many quotes.
Typical projects we can quote for in Llandudno include adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage, widening a drive into the front garden for a second car and turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface. More about driveway extensions and widening.

Planning in Llandudno
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.
If cars will cross the pavement in a new place, or the crossing needs widening, consent is needed from your council as local highway authority before any kerb work.
General information for Wales, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
North Wales ranges from mild coastal towns to wetter upland areas, so drainage and laying days are planned with the weather in mind. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
