Crushed Concrete in London

Crushed materials have lots of uses. Contractors often buy crushed concrete for sub bases. Builders spread crushed materials very thin to create a load-bearing layer. This layer can support buildings, motorways, and driveways. 

We source lots of different materials including limestone, granite, and aggregates. All our materials pass through a crushing machine. Our batches contain 20mm, 40mm, and 75mm pieces of hardcore materials. 

We even screen some of our materials. Screening is a manufacturing process that separates big and small pieces of materials. The batch passes through a net, which splits the materials. 

Contractors all over Chingford depend on our hassle-free service. Our drivers deliver to construction sites and homes all over Chingford. Customers who order over 8 tons are eligible for delivery.

What types of crushed concrete do you stock?

It has never been easier to take advantage of the unique properties of crushed materials. We sell a wide range of crushed materials. Crushed aggregates, concrete, and MOT are available. 

MOT is more expensive than crushed concrete. It contains two primary building materials: limestone and granite. Products that have MOT in the title are approved for use in transport sub bases. Even a thin, 5-inch layer of MOT can support heavy formations such as motorways.

MOT Type 1

So, what is MOT Type 1?

This is the most popular type of MOT. It gains its name from the Ministry of Transport, an old transport regulator. Products that have MOT in the title are approved for use in transport sub bases. 

Type 1 contains limestone and granite that we collect from quarries. We crush the materials into 40mm pieces. Each batch contains a combination of 40mm pieces and dust.

A 5-inch Type 1 base can hold all sorts of heavy structures. It has unbeatable load-bearing qualities.

Recycled Type 1 MOT

This is a sustainable batch of crushed materials that is suitable for use in transport sub bases. It contains all sorts of building materials. Our drivers go to demolition sites around Chingford and collect the old building materials. The materials are crushed into 40mm pieces. 

Each batch of Recycled Type 1 contains pieces that range from dust to 40mm. The smaller pieces of materials fill the crevices that larger pieces leave behind. The result is a strong base that can hold pavements, driveways, and motorways.

MOT Type 2 Clean

MOT Type 2 undergoes an extra manufacturing process. Our drivers collect limestone and granite from quarries and crush them down to 40mm pieces. At this point, the batch contains materials that range from dust to 40mm. 

Then, our team screen the concrete. This separates the different sizes. We throw the smaller pieces away, and only 40mm pieces remain in the finished batch.

This product is suitable for sub bases and drainage systems. Drainage systems need materials that have high flow rates such as MOT Type 2.

6F5 and 6F2 Recycled Aggregates 75mm

6F2 Recycled Aggregates are durable and affordable. This sustainable product contains a combination of materials that would otherwise be thrown away. 

Our drivers go to demolition sites around Chingford with industrial machines and wide clam buckets. They collect sand, stone, and slag. Each batch contains materials that range from dust to 75mm. 

Large pieces of crushed aggregates are perfect for bulk-fill projects. 

Screened Crushed Concrete Type 1 40mm

Our screened crushed concrete products contain concrete that comes from quarries. Once we have crushed the concrete we screen it. The materials pass through a net which separates the smaller pieces and 40mm chunks. 

40mm pieces of concrete are perfect for flooring tasks. Concrete floor screening can support pavements and even patios.

Screened Crushed Concrete 75mm

This product is almost identical to our 40mm screened crushed concrete. The only difference is that the concrete in this product is 75mm. 

Concrete floor screening is suitable for lots of different flooring tasks. Contractors buy 75mm pieces when they have lots of large flooring projects to complete. Bigger pieces can make the task more affordable.

What can I use crushed concrete for?

Crushed materials often create support structures for other construction tasks. We sell lots of different kinds of crushed materials. All our materials have different applications. Here are some of the ways that contractors use our materials.

  • Sub bases – Sub bases consist of crushed materials that have been rolled and set. Once the base has been set, builders can start creating formations. Formations include car parks, driveways, and even motorways. Even 5-inch MOT Type 1 and MOT Type 2 sub bases have excellent load-bearing qualities. 
  • Drainage systems – Contractors who want to create drainage systems need materials that have high flow rates. Type 2 MOT has a high flow rate because it does not contain small pieces of materials. It only contains 40mm chunks. Liquids can pass through the batch without dislodging small pieces of limestone or granite. 
  • Bulk-fill tasks – Batches of 6F2 Recycled Aggregates contain a combination of aggregates that are sourced from demolition sites. They are affordable and durable, which makes them perfect for bulk-fill projects. This product is an affordable option for contractors who have lots of projects to complete.

Will crushed concrete compact?

Yes, crushed concrete will compact if it is put under extreme pressure. The same is true of the other crushed materials that we sell. We sell crushed limestone, granite, and concrete. These materials create strong sub bases for other building formations. 

Builders create crushed sub bases for driveways, car parks, and motorways. Even thin bases can handle extreme loads. Once the formation is on top, the sub base will compact.

If crushed materials go into other projects that do not need rolling, they are less likely to compact.

Does crushed concrete drain?

We sell lots of different types of crushed materials. Our drivers collect concrete, limestone, and granite. Products that contain crushed limestone and granite are called MOT. They are approved for use in transport bases.

Type 1 MOT has a low flow rate. It contains pieces that range from dust to 40mm. Liquids cannot move through the batch without dislodging materials. 

Type 2 MOT has a high flow rate. It only contains 40mm materials. Liquids can move through the batch without being obstructed. This product drains quicker than our other batches of MOT. We also sell screened concrete which has undergone the same process to remove smaller pieces of hardcore materials.

Will crushed concrete harden?

We sell hardcore crushed materials. Concrete, limestone, and granite are the main hardcore materials that we sell. Most of our customers buy them to create strong sub bases.

When hardcore materials are put under immense pressure they compact. The weight of formations such as motorways and pavements forces the materials to compact. After the pieces break apart and bond together they harden.

Is crushed concrete toxic?

The leachate that forms from crushed concrete has a high alkaline content. Leachate is any liquid that passes through solid materials and extracts substances that are in the material. Contractors have to implement pH regulatory controls to reduce the impact of the leachate.

Crushed concrete particles can also become airborne. Particles become airborne when the pieces break away from quarries. Our drivers wear masks to reduce the chance of inhaling concrete particles. 

We encourage customers to take all necessary safety precautions. 

Can I talk to someone about safety advice before the delivery? 

We work hard to create safe services. 

We only hire drivers who have years of experience. They use industrial machines to collect hardcore materials. They drive the trucks all over Chingford and can manoeuvre around a range of different sites. 

Once our drivers are on-site, they can give real-time safety advice. 

If customers are worried about health and safety before the delivery, they can call us on 01992 635454.

Can I cancel my order?

Customers can cancel their orders if they give us 24 hours’ notice.
