Dropped Kerb Application Costs in Cranloch

The application fee and construction cost for a dropped kerb varies by local authority. In Cranloch, the local council sets the fee and may carry out the kerb work itself using its own contractors, or may allow approved private contractors to undertake the works under a licence.
It is important to budget for the dropped kerb costs separately and to allow adequate lead time for the application to be processed, some local authorities in Scotland have processing times of several weeks or more. Your Driveway Specialists will be familiar with the local process and timescales.
