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 Hawick we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. In and around Hawick, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
Typical projects we can quote for in Hawick include framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts, swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put and turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface. More about permeable SuDS driveways.

Planning in Hawick
Scotland's householder permitted development rules allow many hard surfaces at a house where the surface is porous or water drains to a permeable area within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
Flats, listed buildings and conservation areas are treated differently, so if any of those apply we suggest a quick check with your council's planning team before work starts.

Weather and working days
