Planning and kerbs in Redditch
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).
Redditch: questions

Do I need planning permission for a drive in Redditch?
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.

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.
