Why choose us

Compliance and guarantees are boring — until they're not

Nobody chooses a driveway for its paperwork, which is exactly why it gets overlooked — and why it causes trouble when it’s wrong. A surface that isn’t genuinely permeable can fall foul of SuDS; a driveway that needed planning permission and didn’t get it is a problem; vehicle access without a dropped kerb is a non-starter; and work with no guarantee leaves you exposed if something goes wrong. We handle all of it up front, so the project is compliant, the access is sorted, and the work is covered.

SuDS and planning go together: a properly permeable resin surface usually keeps you clear of planning permission because it manages water on site rather than running it off. We make sure the build is genuinely permeable, and advise where any permission does apply.

Where you need vehicle access across a pavement, that’s a dropped kerb — a separate local-authority application we help you with, rather than leaving you to navigate it alone.

And the work is backed by a written installation guarantee and aftercare advice, so there’s real support and accountability after the job, not just before it.

FAQs

Regulatory & warranty questions

Will I need planning permission?

For a genuinely permeable resin driveway, usually not, because it manages water on site rather than running it off. We confirm for your situation and advise where any permission does apply.

What is SuDS and does it affect me?

Sustainable Drainage rules concern how surface water is managed. A properly permeable surface supports compliance — we make sure the build genuinely drains, not just the top layer.

Do you help with dropped kerbs?

Yes — where vehicle access across a pavement is needed, we help with the local-authority dropped kerb application rather than leaving you to it.

What does the guarantee cover?

It’s a written workmanship guarantee on the finished installation. We’ll set out exactly what it covers in your paperwork.

Is there support after the work?

Yes — a written guarantee plus aftercare advice, and we remain contactable if anything needs attention.
