What dropped kerb applications involve
A dropped kerb, or vehicle crossover, is a lowered section of kerb and strengthened pavement that lets a car cross the footway to reach a driveway. It needs consent from the highway authority (your council in England, Wales and Scotland; DfI Roads in Northern Ireland), and the work in the pavement is done by that authority or a contractor it approves.
Before quoting groundworks in Stalybridge we check levels against door thresholds, look for shallow services and plan where spoil and materials will go. Many homes in Stalybridge have existing tarmac or block drives that can be assessed for an overlay or a rebuild.
Typical projects we can quote for in Stalybridge include preparing a drive to meet a new dropped kerb, fitting setts or steel edging around a new drive and digging out an old drive and building a permeable sub-base. More about dropped kerb applications.

Planning in Stalybridge
A dropped kerb always needs consent from your council as local highway authority, whether or not the driveway itself needs planning permission. A new access onto a classified road can need planning permission as well.
General information for England, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
The North West is one of the wetter parts of England, so laying days are picked carefully and drainage under the drive gets extra attention. Laying days in Stalybridge are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
How it works
Guide price first, then a free visit, then a line-by-line quote. Nothing is booked until you have the specification in writing.
