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.
Groundwork prices in Liversedge depend on what is found below the surface, so the survey looks closely at ground conditions, access and drainage. Around Liversedge, longer drives and rural access are common, so deliveries and mixing space are planned at survey.
Projects we quote in and around Liversedge include fitting setts or steel edging around a new drive, digging out an old drive and building a permeable sub-base and replacing failed edges that have started to crumble. More about dropped kerb applications.

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. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
How it works
The steps are simple: guide price, free survey, written quote with a fixed price once the specification is agreed, then a date that suits you and the weather.
