Contractor Site Visit

Once approval is in place, we will visit the site to measure the area and provide you with a detailed estimate before any work is carried out.

Safety Checks & Licence Submission

Once accepted, we will complete all necessary safety checks for the designated area and submit the licence application to the council on your behalf. Council approval typically takes around three weeks, although this can vary depending on workload and application type.

Start Date Scheduled

Once the licence has been granted, we will confirm a suitable start date and schedule the works into our programme.

Apply to the council

If you would like to have a dropped kerb installed, you must first obtain permission from your local council.

Once your application has been approved, the council will provide a list of authorised contractors. Our company is included on approved contractor lists for several local authorities, and our details will be available for you to select.

Once approval is in place, we can then proceed with arranging and carrying out the installation on your behalf.

Installing the Dropped Kerb

Prior to commencing works, we provide the customer with a clear scope of works to ensure everything is fully understood and agreed.

During the works, we take care to keep all property boundaries clean and tidy wherever possible, while maintaining strict attention to site safety at all times. The safety of pedestrians and site users is continuously monitored throughout the duration of the project.
