Your questions answered

How long will the work take at my Hereford property?

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

Are there planning or highway rules in Hereford?

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.
