Drop Kerbs Services in Ferndown
Ferndown is one of Dorset's fastest-growing towns, with a mix of established 1970s and 1980s estates and significant new development in recent years. Driveways across Ferndown's housing stock tend to be generous in size, and the large front gardens of the town's detached homes lend themselves well to block paving and asphalt installations. We work regularly across Ferndown and the surrounding areas of West Moors, Three Legged Cross, and Stapehill.

White & Sons holds Street Works Operative certification to carry out vehicle crossings on public highways. We handle the entire process to local authority specifications, ensuring safe, legal, and seamless access to your property. From the initial dropped kerb application to your local council (Dorset Council, BCP Council, or Hampshire County Council) right through to the finished crossing, we manage every stage for you. All works are inspected and signed off by the highway authority.
Planning & Drainage in Ferndown
Ferndown sits within Dorset Council's jurisdiction. The town's sandy heathland soils are generally excellent for soakaway drainage — percolation rates are fast, which makes soakaway design straightforward and cost-effective on most Ferndown sites.
