FAQs
Patios & Driveways in Worthing: FAQs
Do you provide patios & driveways across all of Worthing?
Yes, we cover the BN11, BN12, BN13 and BN14 postcode areas in full, including Tarring, Broadwater, Durrington, Goring-by-Sea, Findon Valley, Heene.
Do I need planning permission for a new driveway?
If the new or replacement driveway is more than 5 square metres and uses a non-permeable material without a soakaway or permeable drainage solution, planning permission is normally required. Using permeable materials or directing rainwater to a lawn or border avoids this. We advise on the right approach for your property.
Are Worthing's seafront buildings protected?
Many of the town's notable Art Deco and Edwardian seafront buildings are listed or within conservation areas, which affects what external changes can be made without consent. We check this for individual properties.
