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 Camberley we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Many homes in Camberley have existing tarmac or block drives that can be assessed for an overlay or a rebuild.
Projects we quote in and around Camberley include turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface, swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put and widening a drive into the front garden for a second car. More about driveway extensions and widening.

Planning in Camberley
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.
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 England, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
The South East is relatively dry, with long laying seasons, but clay soils are common across much of the region and can drain slowly. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.
