What is included?

Yard and forecourt surfacing is dense asphalt laid over a deeper sub-base outside business premises, designed for vans, forklifts and deliveries, with channels and gullies to take away the water from a large sealed area.

  • Survey of loads, turning areas and existing drainage
  • Excavation and sub-base to suit vehicles
  • Dense binder and surface course
  • Channels and gullies, with interceptors where fuel is stored
  • Thicker sections at gates, ramps and loading doors
  • Lining for walkways and parking

Rules in Nottinghamshire

Householder permitted development covers houses only. Car parks, yards, flats and business premises follow normal planning rules: resurfacing an existing area on the same footprint is generally fine, while a new car park, a change of use or new drainage may need permission. Check with the planning authority before any new hard area.
