What permeable SuDS driveways involve
A permeable SuDS driveway is built so rainwater soaks through every layer into the ground below, instead of running off onto the road. SuDS stands for sustainable drainage systems. With resin bound, that means a permeable surface on a porous binder course over an open-graded stone sub-base.
Before quoting in Caerphilly 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 Caerphilly have existing tarmac or block drives that can be assessed for an overlay or a rebuild.
Across Gwent, the projects we price include widening a drive into the front garden for a second car, adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage and swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put. More about permeable SuDS driveways.

Planning in Caerphilly
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.
General information for Wales, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
South Wales is wetter than most of England, so a permeable build or a planned route for water is essential on every drive. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
How it works
Get a guide price online, book a free survey, receive an itemised written quote, then agree a date. Most drives over a ready base are laid in a day.
