Block paving in Redcar
Redcar is a sizeable town with a mix of semis, terraces and newer estates, and many drives here were first laid decades ago.
Former colliery ground and clay soils occur across the North East, so the survey checks for soft spots before the sub-base depth is set.
Redcar postcodes we cover include TS10, TS11, TS12 and TS14.
Front drive rules in Redcar
Redcar is in England:
In England, paving in front of the house that covers more than 5 m² needs planning permission unless it is permeable or drains to a lawn, border or soakaway inside your boundary. Permeable block paving, or standard blocks laid to fall onto a planted strip, avoid the need for permission in most cases.
Flats and maisonettes, listed buildings, and homes covered by an Article 4 direction can have tighter rules, and conservation areas, National Parks and National Landscapes restrict some permitted development.
A dropped kerb needs your local highway authority's approval (usually the county, unitary, metropolitan or London borough council), and a new access onto an A, B or C classified road also needs planning permission.
General guidance, not legal advice. Your survey confirms what applies to your home. See the planning guide.
