Welshpool: common questions

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

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 I need permission for private road surfacing in Welshpool?

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.

Do you cover all of Welshpool?

We cover Welshpool including SY21, and nearby Newtown.

How long does private road surfacing take in Welshpool?

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