What to weigh up in Paisley

  • Victorian terraces in the town centre have more limited frontage than the surrounding semi-detached suburbs.
  • Post-war estate housing on Paisley's outskirts typically has consistent frontage suited to a driveway.
Road frontage

A driveway only applies where a property has a private garden or hard standing accessed directly from the street. Tenement flats open onto a shared close or back court and have no road frontage, so they cannot take one. Where frontage exists but no dropped kerb is in place, an application to Renfrewshire Council is normally the first step. We confirm both at survey.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know

Yes — the same materials and dropped kerb process apply; which option suits your property depends on the frontage available, confirmed at survey.
