What we do on car park surfacing

Car park surfacing for a new site means building a pavement for repeated vehicle traffic: excavation, a deeper compacted sub-base, a dense asphalt binder course and a surface course, with kerbs, drainage and lining.

Layout drawn: bays, aisles, accessible bays and pedestrian routes
Excavation and disposal
Sub-base about 200–300 mm, subject to ground assessment
Surface course, about 30–40 mm
Kerbs, gullies, channels and connections

Do I need permission in Acton?

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.
