How it is built

What we do on car park resurfacing

Car park resurfacing renews the wearing surface of an existing car park: either an overlay, laying a new surface course on top after repairs and a bond coat, or plane and inlay, milling off the worn layer and replacing it at the same level.

Failed areas cut out and rebuilt before surfacing
Planing to remove worn surface or at tie-ins

Questions about car park resurfacing jobs in Lewes

What approvals apply in Lewes?

Householder permitted development covers houses only. Car parks, yards, flats and business premises follow normal planning rules: resurfacing an existing area on the same footprint is generally fine, while a new car park, a change of use or new drainage may need permission. Check with the planning authority before any new hard area.

How long will the work take at my Lewes property?

Often 1–3 days for a small car park. We book Lewes surveys alongside other jobs in East Sussex, and give you dates once the specification is agreed.

Car park resurfacing cost in Lewes: what should I budget?
