Dropped Kerbs & Drainage
A new driveway often needs a dropped kerb for legal access, and the right drainage to stay dry and compliant. We handle both, from helping with your highway authority application to installing channel drains, soakaways and permeable solutions that keep water off your property and the road.
- Dropped kerbs and vehicle crossovers to council specification
- Help with your council crossover application
- Channel drains, linear drains and soakaways
- SuDS-compliant solutions for non-permeable driveways
Common Questions
Do I need permission for a dropped kerb?
Yes. A dropped kerb crosses the public footpath, so it needs approval from your local highway authority, which for most homes is the county council. We can guide you through the application.
Does my new driveway need drainage?
If you're paving more than five square metres of front garden with a non-permeable surface, rainwater must drain to a permeable area or soakaway, otherwise planning permission is required. We'll make sure your driveway complies.
