Do I need permission in Canning Town?
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.
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.
- Dig out and replace failed sub-base, compact in layers
- 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
