What the price covers
A new tarmac driveway is built from the ground up: the old surface and soil are dug out, a compacted stone sub-base is laid, then a hot binder course and a finer surface course are spread and rolled, and the edges are held by kerbs or blocks.
- Break out and remove the old surface and spoil
- Geotextile membrane where the ground is soft or clay
- MOT Type 1 sub-base laid and compacted in layers, about 150 mm
- Concrete-haunched kerbs or a block-paved border as edge restraint
- Falls set so water runs to a channel, gully or soft landscaping
Do I need permission in Kingswinford?
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. If the job needs a dropped kerb, the highway authority (the county or unitary council) approves it before any work on the footway.
