Dropped Kerb Application Costs in Ashtead
If your driveway project requires a new or widened dropped kerb, this involves a separate application to the local highways authority and works by an approved contractor to modify the public footway and kerb. The application fee and construction cost for a dropped kerb varies by local authority. In Ashtead, 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 South East have processing times of several weeks or more. Your Driveway Specialists will be familiar with the local process and timescales.
Frequently Asked Questions — SuDS and Drainage for Driveways in Ashtead
SuDS stands for Sustainable Drainage Systems. For residential driveways in England, the key SuDS requirement is that surface water should not be directed to the public sewer. Permeable surfaces that allow water to soak into the ground satisfy this requirement. Non-permeable surfaces require drainage that directs water to a soakaway, watercourse or the property's surface water drain — not the foul sewer.
Flooding indicates inadequate drainage provision or a blocked drainage system. A driveway specialist in Ashtead can survey the site, identify the cause and recommend remedial action, which may include installing channel drainage, constructing a soakaway or changing the surface to a permeable type.
In most cases, draining directly to the highway gutter is not permitted without consent from the highways authority. Your driveway specialist should design drainage that manages water within your property boundary or connects to an approved surface water drainage point.
Not necessarily. Whether a soakaway is required depends on your surface choice, local ground conditions and existing drainage provision. A permeable surface may not require any additional drainage infrastructure. Your Driveway Specialists will advise during the survey.
