Tarmac driveway repairs in Kidderminster

Planning and kerb rules for Kidderminster

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 we do on a tarmac driveway repair

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
  • Dig out and replace failed sub-base, compact in layers
  • Bond coat to the cut faces and base
  • Joints sealed to stop water getting under the patch
