Crushed Concrete in Royston
We specialise in crushed materials. Our experienced drivers go to quarries and demolition sites across Royston to collect materials. Once we have the materials, we grind them together to create 20mm, 40mm, and 75mm chunks.
We sell crushed concrete, aggregates, limestone, and granite. MOT is a popular sub base material that is made of limestone and granite. Both of these materials are primary construction materials that have excellent load-bearing qualities.
All the materials that we collect undergo testing at a local facility. Contractors in Royston depend on us for a comprehensive service. We source, test, and deliver materials straight to construction sites.
Customers can request a delivery slot for orders over 8 tons. We do not deliver orders under 8 tons, but customers can pick them up at a time that suits them. Give our team a call on 01992 635454 to secure a delivery date and time slot.
What types of crushed concrete do you stock?
We stock lots of different types of crushed concrete. Contractors in Royston depend on us for 40mm, 70mm, and recycled batches. We even source, test, and sell batches that have the dust filtered out.
Lots of contractors also purchase limestone and granite from us. The acronym MOT refers to the Ministry of Transport, a now-defunct organisation that regulated the motorways in England. If products are intended for use in motorway sub bases, they will have the acronym MOT in the title. Now, the Ministry of Transport has merged with the Department of Transport.
MOT Type 1 near me
Contractors often ask us, ‘what is MOT Type 1?’
This type of MOT contains limestone and granite. We take the materials from quarries and grind them together to create 40mm chunks. Each batch contains materials that range from dust to 40mm.
The combination of dust particles and large chunks is excellent for sub bases. The smaller particles fill in the cracks to create overall stronger bases. Contractors buy MOT Type 1 when they need to create heavy structures. Once the sub base is in place, builders can create motorways, car parks, and a range of other structures.
Recycled Type 1 MOT
Recycled Type 1 MOT comes from demolition sites. Our drivers go to active demolition sites and collect materials that would otherwise be thrown away. When we have collected and tested the materials we grind them together. Batches of Recycled MOT Type 1 contain particles that range from dust to 40mm.
Crushed concrete is the primary material in this batch. We use industrial machines that have large clam buckets. They pick up concrete, brick, stone, and a range of other aggregates.
This product is both affordable and strong. We recommend it for contractors who need to create robust sub bases.
MOT Type 2 Clean
Contractors often ask us, ‘what is MOT Type 2?’
It is a type of MOT that does not contain dust particles. We source limestone and granite from quarries and grind the pieces down to 40mm chunks. The materials undergo an extra process to remove the fine particles of dust. All that remains are 40mm chunks.
40mm is a standard size for hardcore sub base materials. Like all the other types of MOT that we stock, MOT Type 2 is ideal for sub bases. It is also suitable for drainage systems. Liquids can pass through the drainage system without dislodging dust particles.
6F5 and 6F2 Recycled Aggregates 75mm
We collect 6F2 Recycled Aggregates from demolition sites. Our drivers use wide clam bucket attachments that scoop up a range of aggregates. Materials might include brick, stone, and any other materials that are on-site during the sourcing process.
Lots of contractors buy 6F5 Recycled Aggregates for bulk-fill projects. Crushed aggregates are more affordable than primary building materials such as limestone and granite. They can create robust, long-lasting sub bases.
Screened Crushed Concrete Type 1 40mm
We take chunks of concrete from quarries and grind them down to size.
Screening concrete removes everything apart from large chunks. We remove all the pieces of dust from the mixture so that only 40mm pieces of crushed concrete remain.
Contractors buy concrete floor screening for lots of different purposes. This product can support a range of flooring structures such as pathways, patio floors, and pavements.
Screened Crushed Concrete 75mm
This type of concrete floor screening contains 75mm pieces of crushed concrete. We source the concrete from local quarries in and around Royston.
Contractors might choose 75mm concrete instead of 40mm concrete if they have large flooring tasks to complete. This product is an excellent affordable alternative for contractors who have a lot of flooring structures to build.

What can I use crushed concrete for?
20mm concrete is ideal for contractors who want to strengthen their existing batches. Smaller pieces of hardcore materials fill in crevices and help to create strong sub bases.
MOT Type 1 hardcore is ideal for sub bases. It contains a combination of big and small materials that slot together to form robust bases.
Recycled Type 1 MOT is perfect for contractors who need affordable, long-lasting materials for sub bases. Each batch contains a combination of hardcore materials such as concrete, brick, and stone.
We filter fine dust particles out of MOT Type 2 batches. Contractors across Royston buy this product for drainage systems.
6F2 Recycled Aggregates (which are also called 6F5 Recycled Aggregates) contain a range of hardcore materials. This product is more affordable than a lot of the primary building materials that we sell.
Will crushed concrete compact?
Yes, concrete does compact. Concrete is a hardcore material, but it will compact under the right circumstances. Most of our customers purchase Recycled MOT Type 1 and 6F2 Recycled Aggregates for sub bases. Both of these products contain crushed concrete.
To create sub bases, contractors must lay and roll the materials. This process forces the materials to compact. Once the sub base is in place, contractors can build any number of formations on top. The weight of the formations forces the materials to harden and compact even more.
Some sub bases can compact so much that they no longer meet building requirements. If contractors do not adhere to building regulations they could face fines.
Does crushed concrete drain?
Some materials drain more than others. All batches of materials have flow rates. When materials have high flow rates, water and other liquids can travel through them without a problem.
We sell lots of products that contain a combination of big and small materials. MOT Type 1 and Recycled Type 1 MOT batches contain materials that range from dust to 40mm. These products have low flow rates.
MOT Type 2 only contains large 40mm materials. We filter all the fine pieces out of the batches, which means that this product has a high flow rate.
Still unsure? Call our team on 01992 635454 for advice.
Will crushed concrete harden?
Concrete is already a hardcore material, but it can harden even more over time. Most of our customers buy crushed concrete batches for sub bases. Sub bases form a basis for heavy building formations. Contractors can build any number of formations on top of sub bases. Structures such as motorways and car parks weigh down on sub bases and force the materials inside them to compress and harden.
Ready mix concrete is much smoother and stronger than the crushed alternative.
Is crushed concrete toxic?
Crushed hardcore materials are only harmful to health if they are mishandled.
Our drivers operate industrial machines every day. They understand how to collect concrete, limestone, and granite in a safe manner. The main problem arises when materials break away from quarries or demolition sites. The break causes particles to become airborne. If people inhale particles of crushed aggregate materials they may experience long-term health problems.
Contractors, builders, and homeowners should always wear masks when they are on-site. This will minimise the chance of inhaling dust particles.
