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.
In Maidstone, as anywhere, the base is the part that decides how long a resin surface lasts. The survey settles whether we overlay, repair or rebuild it. Maidstone has a broad mix of housing, from terraces near the centre to detached homes on the edges.
Typical projects we can quote for in Maidstone include replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build, turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface and building a fully permeable drive on a front garden. More about permeable SuDS driveways.

As a guide, a 46 m² drive in the ME14 area with a dig-out and new permeable base would be around £3,850–£6,200, including VAT.

Planning in Maidstone
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. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
