Hadleigh: common questions

Are there planning or highway rules in Hadleigh?

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.

How long will the work take at my Hadleigh property?

Usually days rather than weeks; phased to keep access. We book Hadleigh surveys alongside other jobs in Essex, and give you dates once the specification is agreed.

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

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.

Do you cover all of Hadleigh?
