Do I Need Planning Permission?

A submission for Planning Permission will be required for Impermeable Surfaces, like Pattern Imprinted Concrete. The Purpose of this requirement is to prevent the Stormwater Drain System in the road and eventually the rivers from being unnecessarily over filled in periods of heavy rainfall. However

These requirements do not apply to Wales & Scotland
They apply to the area between the front of the house and the road

Part of Our job is to try and satisfy the requirements of our customers and the local council. We can do this with Soakaways and draining to the garden. On particularly poor drainage properties we are permitted to make use of the Storm Drains. Providing we make our best effort to drain Driveway Accumulated Rainwater into the SUB soils below, WE WILL NOT NEED PLANNING PERMISSION Our Site Surveyor will look at all options in order that all requirements are met. On rare occasions there may be no option but to apply for Planning Permission. We will apply for permission which cost £150.00 and takes about 8 week to complete.
