Permeable SuDS driveways across Hampshire
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.
On clay or very slow-draining ground the sub-base acts as a storage layer, holding water and releasing it slowly, sometimes with an overflow to a soakaway. That is decided on survey.
Across Hampshire, the projects we price include turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface, adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage and replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build.
Prices in Hampshire
Guide prices for Hampshire are based on South East rates, which are above the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.
Permeable SuDS driveways: £85–£135 per m².
Worked example: a 38 m² drive in Hampshire with a dig-out and new permeable base would typically come to about £3,200–£5,100, including VAT.
Planning in Hampshire
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.
Permitted development rights apply to houses, not flats or maisonettes, and some conservation areas have Article 4 directions that remove them. Listed buildings can need consent if railings or historic walls are affected.
Weather and working days
The South East is relatively dry, with long laying seasons, but clay soils are common across much of the region and can drain slowly. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Hampshire, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
