Rules that apply in Epsom

Repairs, paths and edging work rarely need planning permission. In England, householder permitted development (Class F of the 2015 General Permitted Development Order) lets you lay a hard surface in front of a house without planning permission if it is porous, or if the rainwater is directed to a permeable area within the property. If the area is more than 5 m² and neither applies, you need permission. Standard dense tarmac is not porous, so a dense tarmac drive needs a lawn, border, channel to a soakaway or other permeable route for its water.

What the price covers

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

Find the cause: water, root, soft base or missing edge
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
Edge restraint replaced where the side has crumbled
