Frequently asked questions
How much does a new driveway cost in Wales?
Block paving is usually £70–£120 per m², resin-bound £40–£70, tarmac £45–£80. A typical 40m² drive lands around £3,000–£8,000 with excavation.
Do I need planning permission for a driveway?
Not if you use a permeable surface such as resin-bound or block paving with proper drainage. If surface water would run onto the road you will need permission — and a dropped kerb always needs council approval.
