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 Dinnington we check levels against door thresholds, look for shallow services and plan where spoil and materials will go. In and around Dinnington, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
In Dinnington we can price work such as adding a soakaway so water stays on the property, replacing failed edges that have started to crumble and preparing a drive to meet a new dropped kerb. More about dropped kerb applications.

Planning in Dinnington
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
Rainfall varies widely across Yorkshire, from the drier Vale of York to wetter Pennine towns, and cold snaps shorten the laying season at either end. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Dinnington jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.

Dropped kerb applications in Dinnington: questions
Do I need planning permission in Dinnington?
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.
