Questions about private road surfacing jobs in Bo'ness

Are there planning or highway rules in Bo'ness?

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 Bo'ness property?

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