Block paving in Llantrisant

Around Llantrisant, plots are often larger and drives longer, so edging, falls and the route the water takes need planning.

Wales is wetter than most of England, and new front paving has to be permeable or drain within the property, so drainage is designed in from the start.

Llantrisant postcodes we cover include CF72 and CF38.

Front drive rules in Llantrisant

Llantrisant is in Wales:

In Wales, any new or replacement hard surface at the front of a house should be permeable or drain to a permeable area within the property to avoid needing planning permission. Unlike England, there is no 5 m² allowance for new paving; only repairs of up to 5 m² of existing surface are exempt.

Since January 2019, construction work covering 100 m² or more with drainage implications, including drives and patios, needs approval from the local SuDS Approving Body (SAB) before work starts, even where planning permission is not needed.

A dropped kerb needs your council's approval as highway authority, and a new access onto a classified road needs planning permission.

General guidance, not legal advice. Your survey confirms what applies to your home. See the planning guide.
