How it is built
Planning and kerb rules for Brechin
Repairs, paths and edging work rarely need planning permission. In Scotland, permitted development allows a hard surface between a house and a road only if it is porous or the water drains to a porous area within the property. Unlike England there is no 5 m² allowance, so it applies to any size. Conservation areas and the grounds of listed buildings have extra restrictions. The council, as roads authority, controls any new or widened access across a footway.
What is included in a tarmac driveway repair?
Potholes, sunken patches, cracks and crumbling edges cut out square and re-laid hot.
- Saw-cut the damaged area square, back to sound tarmac
- Bond coat to the cut faces and base
- Hot binder and surface course laid flush and rolled
- Joints sealed to stop water getting under the patch
- Edge restraint replaced where the side has crumbled
