GroundSure ground stabilisation

Ground stabilisation using Terram GroundSure is one of the toughest and most durable non-woven geotextile fabrics, designed to separate and stabilise construction layers while allowing water through. It is unaffected by cement, lime, and alkaline soils making it ideal for use as a stabilisation and weed control material under driveways, access roads, patios, decked areas and paths.

From 1st October 2008 new planning rules apply for householders wanting to lay paving in their front gardens. Planning permission is now required for any impermeable surface exceeding 5m² in a front garden.

Using a permeable landscape geotextile fabric such as Terram GroundSure, in conjunction with a permeable paving solution such as gravel, permeable concrete block paving or porous asphalt, planning permission will not be required.
