Rules that apply in Haslemere
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.
What the price covers
Open-graded porous asphalt on a deep permeable stone base, so rain soaks through on site.
- Dig out deeper than a standard drive to fit the storage layer
- Geotextile separating layer on the formation
- Porous asphalt binder and surface courses
- Overflow to a soakaway or border on slow-draining ground
- Edge restraint that does not block the flow
