Your questions answered

How long will the work take at my Risca property?

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

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

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.

What approvals apply in Risca?

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.
