Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Planning Permission required for a driveway in Kensington?
Yes, often. While permeable driveways often fall under Permitted Development, Planning Permission is generally required if your property is in a Conservation Area or if you need to install a Dropped Kerb, both common in Kensington.
SUDS (Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems) is a requirement to manage surface water on-site. If you lay more than 5m² of non-permeable surface in your front garden, you must have an approved drainage system, or use materials like Resin Bound Gravel to avoid planning applications.
Due to the extremely high cost and scarcity of parking permits in RBKC, a legal, expertly installed driveway with a council-approved Dropped Kerb can add significant value, often equating to a return far exceeding the cost of installation.
You must first apply to the RBKC Highways Authority for permission. We can manage this entire process for you, from securing permission to executing the physical build to the required council specification.
Due to extreme parking scarcity, a professionally installed driveway with a legal Dropped Kerb can increase a London property's value by 5% to 15%, offering one of the highest returns on investment for home improvements.
