Rules that apply in Slough

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. Any new or widened crossing over the pavement needs approval from the highway authority (the county or unitary council).

What is included in a new tarmac driveway?

Full dig-out, compacted stone sub-base, binder course and a fine surface course, edged and drained.

  • Break out and remove the old surface and spoil
  • Geotextile membrane where the ground is soft or clay
  • Concrete-haunched kerbs or a block-paved border as edge restraint
  • Binder course (AC 20 dense), about 50–60 mm, laid hot and rolled
  • Falls set so water runs to a channel, gully or soft landscaping
