Rules that apply in Bebington

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. If the job needs a dropped kerb, the highway authority (the county or unitary council) approves it before any work on the footway.

What the price covers

Tarmac resurfacing, or an overlay, means cleaning and repairing an existing drive, spraying a bond coat and laying a new surface course of about 25–40 mm on top, without digging out the base.

  • Survey of the existing base: sinking, rutting, loose edges and drainage
  • Plane or cut back at thresholds, kerbs and covers so levels still work
  • Weed treatment and a clean surface
  • Bond (tack) coat sprayed to glue the new layer to the old
  • Edges sealed and joints to existing surfaces cut neatly
