Do I need permission in Bangor, County Down?

Repairs, paths and edging work rarely need planning permission. In Northern Ireland, more than 5 m² of hard surface in front of a house should be porous or drain to a porous area within the property; DfI Roads approves dropped kerbs.

What the price covers

A proper tarmac repair cuts out the damaged area in a neat square, digs out any failed stone beneath, rebuilds and compacts the base, bonds the edges and lays new hot tarmac flush with the drive.

  • Saw-cut the damaged area square, back to sound tarmac
  • 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
