What is included?

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.

  • Condition survey: cores or trial holes where failure is suspected
  • Planing to remove worn surface or at tie-ins
  • Bond coat sprayed on the prepared surface
  • New surface course, typically 40 mm, laid by paver and rolled
  • Ironwork raised to the new level
  • Lining and markings renewed

Rules in Glasgow

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.
