Your questions answered

Will someone visit before I get a fixed price in Solihull?

Yes for new surfacing such as drives, paths, private roads and car parks. Small repairs are often priced from photos; if a visit is needed for a repair-only job, we tell you any charge first.

How long will the work take at my Solihull property?

Often 1–2 weeks for a small car park, depending on drainage. We book Solihull surveys alongside other jobs in the West Midlands, and give you dates once the specification is agreed.

How much does car park surfacing cost in Solihull?

As a 2026 guide in Solihull, car park surfacing work runs at about £50–£85 per m² excluding VAT, so a 400 m² car park is roughly £20,000–£34,000. Drainage, kerbs and lining are itemised separately.

Do I need permission for car park surfacing in Solihull?

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.
