Bin stores in Weldon

Bin stores in Weldon

Weldon is famous for Weldon stone, the limestone quarried here for centuries, and the historic centre is built of it. Around it, later estates now join the village to Corby, and those homes tend to have the familiar new-estate problem of nowhere tidy for the bins. We fit composite slatted stores with aluminium doors for one, two or three bins on a level paved pad, with a route to the kerb that works on collection day.

In the old stone centre, a store at the side or rear, on a pad that suits the stone around it, usually works best and keeps the street view of the stone intact. On the estates, the front or side of the drive is often the only practical spot. We measure your bins, check that the lids can open fully inside and give you a guide price on the visit, with a fixed price in writing afterwards.

Weldon specifically

What makes Weldon different

Weldon sits over the limestone and ironstone that were quarried here, and ground can change from natural rock to clay or fill within a single garden. A small pad straddling rock and fill will settle unevenly, so we dig before we design the base. The Willow Brook runs past the village, where the Environment Agency operates the Weldon flood storage reservoir, so on plots near the brook we plan where the pad's run-off goes rather than assuming it will soak away.

On an estate house on the Corby side of Weldon, a typical job is a two or three bin store beside the drive, on a paved pad with a short path to the pavement. In the historic centre, it is usually a one or two bin store at the side or rear of a stone house.

Permissions in Weldon

  1. PlanningA bin store at the side or back of the house is normally permitted development. In front of the house, a free-standing store technically falls outside householder permitted development, so we check with the council before building one there. Listed buildings and the Weldon conservation area have tighter rules, so we check your address before anything is designed. Planning Portal: outbuildings
  2. Design and priceWe measure up, check the ground and the planning position, and give you one fixed written price.

Questions

Bin stores in Weldon: questions

How much is a bin store in Weldon?
A single wheelie bin store fitted on a level paved base starts from about £1,000 as a guide. Two and three bin stores, and any new path to the kerb, are priced on the visit. What we find under the pad can change the base needed, so we confirm a fixed price in writing after the visit.
Do I need planning permission for a bin store in Weldon?
At the side or back it is normally permitted development. A free-standing store in front of the house technically falls outside householder permitted development, so we check with North Northamptonshire Council. Weldon has a conservation area covering the historic village, and there is no Article 4 direction in Weldon affecting driveways, porches or extensions.
Why dig before laying a small pad?
Because Weldon's ground was quarried, and natural rock can sit right next to clay or fill. A pad on mixed ground settles unevenly, which twists the store and stops the doors closing. Digging first tells us how deep the base needs to be.
Can the paving match the stone houses in the centre?
We choose paving in natural tones that sit well beside Weldon stone rather than stark grey. We bring options on the visit so you can see them against your house before deciding.
