Aggregates Delivery

Choosing the Right Aggregates for Your Project

Using the right aggregate makes the difference between a driveway that lasts and one that sinks. Here's a plain-English guide to the materials we deliver.

MOT Type 1

The standard sub-base for driveways, patios and roads. It compacts to a solid, load-bearing layer and meets DoT specifications.

Sharp sand & ballast

Sharp sand's coarse grain bonds with cement for concrete, mortar and render. Ballast — a sand-and-gravel mix — is what you want for mixing concrete for foundations and footings.

Topsoil

Screened quality topsoil for lawns, borders and landscaping.

Crushed concrete & road planings

Eco-friendly recycled options. Crushed concrete (6F2) is a cost-effective sub-base and hardcore; road planings compact well for driveways and paths.
