Rules in Northolt

In England, householder permitted development (Class F of the 2015 General Permitted Development Order) lets you lay a hard surface in front of a house without planning permission if it is porous, or if the rainwater is directed to a permeable area within the property. If the area is more than 5 m² and neither applies, you need permission. Standard dense tarmac is not porous, so a dense tarmac drive needs a lawn, border, channel to a soakaway or other permeable route for its water. Dropped kerbs are approved by the highway authority (the county or unitary council).

Northolt: questions

Can you resurface my drive in Northolt instead of replacing it?

Often, if the base is sound. Resurfacing in Northolt is typically £30–£54 per m² inc VAT.

Is the survey in Northolt free?

Yes, for new surfacing: drives, paths, private roads and car parks. Small repairs are often priced from photos; where a visit is needed for a repair-only job, we tell you any charge before booking. Remote areas are by arrangement.

How far is Northolt from Brent?

About 3 miles.

Do I need planning permission for a drive in Northolt?

In England, a new hard surface over 5 m² in front of a house needs planning permission unless it is porous or drains to a lawn, border or soakaway within the property.
