MOT Type 1 near me

When contractors search for ‘MOT Type 1 near me’ our name pops up.

We are a leading supplier of MOT in Finchley. This product earns its name from the Ministry of Transport, a regulatory transport body that oversaw networks in the UK. If crushed products are suitable for transport bases, they will often have the acronym in the name. 

Our drivers collect limestone and granite from quarries around Finchley. They grind the materials together to create 40mm pieces. This product is comprised of materials that range from dust to 40mm. 

Contractors often buy this product when they need to create strong sub bases. Even a thin layer of Type 1 can handle the weight of driveways and motorways.

Recycled Type 1 MOT

Recycled Type 1 sub bases are fantastic alternatives to regular Type 1 sub bases. Recycled MOT is similar to regular MOT Type 1. The crushed materials range from 40mm to dust. The materials have excellent load-bearing qualities for a wide range of projects.

Recycled Type 1 is a by-product of construction sites. It is taken from existing sites that are being demolished. By using existing materials, builders can reduce their carbon footprints. This sustainable product is perfect for people who have to meet environmentally-friendly quotas. Just like regular Type 1, it is as easy to order and install.

Customers should be aware that there might be other materials in their batch. Fragments of granite, limestone, concrete, and brick will also be scooped up during the sourcing process.

MOT Type 2 Clean

This type of MOT is unique. This product does not contain any small pieces.

Our drivers collect granite and limestone from quarries around Finchley. They place the materials in a crushing machine to create 40mm pieces. Then, they place the materials in a net to start a process called screening. Screening separates the big pieces of materials from the small pieces.

MOT Type 2 only contains 40mm pieces of limestone and granite. Both are primary building materials that are known for their strength and load-bearing qualities. 

Contractors buy Type 2 for drainage systems and sub bases.

6F5 and 6F2 Recycled Aggregates 75mm

Our 6F2 Recycled Aggregates are popular amongst customers who want sustainable, affordable alternatives to MOT. This product is made from materials that come from demolition sites. Our drivers collect all sorts of aggregates such as stone, slag, and sand. 

We recommend this product for bulk-fill construction tasks.

Screened Crushed Concrete Type 1 40mm

Screening is a manufacturing process that splits materials. 

Our drivers collect concrete from quarries in Finchley and grind the materials down to 40mm. They place the materials in a net and throw away all the small pieces of concrete.

Crushed concrete floor screening can support heavy structures. Contractors lay this product underneath patios and walkways.

Screened Crushed Concrete 75mm

The two types of crushed concrete screening that we sell are identical apart from the size.

This product only contains 75mm pieces. We recommend it for contractors who need to complete a large number of flooring tasks.

What can I use crushed concrete for?

Contractors use crushed materials for a number of construction tasks. 

• Bulk-fill – This kind of project needs materials that are strong and affordable. 6F2 Recycled Aggregates contain materials such as stone, slag, and sand which come from demolition sites around Finchley. Contractors fill gaps and bases with these affordable, long-lasting materials. 
• Drainage systems – Drainage systems need batches that have high flow rates. If liquids can travel through a material unobstructed, the material has a high flow rate. We recommend MOT Type 2 for contractors who need to create drainage systems. This product only contains large chunks of materials, which means that there is nothing to obstruct liquids. 
• Sub bases – Bases can support all kinds of construction formations. Even a thin layer of MOT Type 1 has excellent load-bearing qualities. If contractors do not have much space, they can even create 4-inch bases. Anything above 4 inches works well.

What is finer Type 1 MOT or Type 2 MOT?

MOT Type 1 is finer. It contains pieces of limestone and granite that range from dust to 40mm. 

MOT Type 2 undergoes a process called screening. Once we have the pieces of limestone and granite we put them in a crushing machine. Then, we run the batch through a net. The net splits the big pieces from the small pieces. We throw away all the small bits and pieces and batch up the big pieces ready to be sold. This product only contains 40mm pieces of limestone and granite.

Does crushed concrete drain?

Yes! 

Batches of crushed materials all have different flow rates. The lower the flow rate, the slower the liquids travel through the batch. 

We sell a few different kinds of crushed concrete. 

40mm and 75mm concrete floor screening has a high flow rate. Screened products only contain one size of materials, which means that liquids can move through unobstructed.

Is crushed concrete toxic?

When it comes to building materials, it is important to take safety precautions. 

Crushed concrete can be a hazard. When we put concrete in a crushing machine, lots of particles become airborne. If labourers inhale the particles, they might develop lung issues. To avoid this, contractors can enforce rules about protective equipment. 

When liquids pass through crushed concrete, leachates form. Leachates are liquids that take substances from the materials that they pass through. Concrete contains a high level of alkali. 

Once a leachate has formed, it can transfer dangerous chemicals to other areas on your construction site. If labourers touch the leachate, they might experience health issues. Contractors can avoid this problem by putting pH controls in place.

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

Yes! Contractors in Finchley depend on us for comprehensive services. 

As part of our delivery service, contractors can expect health and safety advice. They can call beforehand or even ask our drivers when they are on-site. 

Our drivers have years of experience. They have delivered to all kinds of construction sites and homes across Finchley. All they need is a suitable entrance.
