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.
Any quote we prepare in Cwmbran says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Cwmbran mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
Typical projects we can quote for in Cwmbran include adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage, framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts and widening a drive into the front garden for a second car. More about permeable SuDS driveways.

Planning in Cwmbran
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. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Gwent, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
