Planning and kerb rules for Ellesmere Port

Repairs, paths and edging work rarely need planning permission. In England, a new hard surface over 5 m² in front of a house needs planning permission unless it is porous or drains to a lawn, border or soakaway within the property.

Potholes, sunken patches, cracks and crumbling edges cut out square and re-laid hot.

  • Find the cause: water, root, soft base or missing edge
  • Dig out and replace failed sub-base, compact in layers
  • 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
