Crushed Concrete in Welham Green

Contractors and homeowners in Welham Green call us for a range of crushed materials.

Crushed concrete is popular because it is as strong as and cheaper than primary construction materials. 

We sell concrete batches that contain a range of chunks. Some of the batches contain materials that range from dust to 40mm and other batches only contain large chunks. 

Contractors can also rely on us for crushed primary materials. We excavate and sell a few different types of MOT. MOT has excellent load-bearing qualities and can support motorways, driveways, and car parks.

Our drivers will deliver orders that are over 8 tons. Customers can choose a time slot and date that best suits them. Orders under 8 tons must be collected.

Call our team on 01992 635454 to enquire about delivery dates. 

What types of crushed concrete do you stock?

For a range of premium-quality crushed materials, look no further. 

Our drivers use industrial machines to collect limestone, granite, concrete, and aggregates. All the materials that they collect undergo testing at facilities around Welham Green. By testing materials, we make sure that they are strong and safe for use.

Once the materials have been tested they pass through a crushing machine. We crush materials into 20mm, 40mm, and 75mm chunks.

MOT Type 1 near me

The acronym MOT stands for Ministry of Transport. This is a now-defunct regulatory body that managed transport networks across the UK. 

The Ministry of Transport merged with the Department of Transport. Products that are suitable for transport sub bases often have the acronym MOT in the title. Motorways and car parks need strong sub bases. 

So, what is MOT Type 1?

This product is made of limestone and granite. Both are hardcore primary construction materials that have excellent load-bearing qualities. 

Our drivers collect the materials from quarries around Welham Green and grind them down to 40mm. MOT Type 1 batches contain everything from dust to 40mm pieces. 

Recycled Type 1 MOT

Recycled Type 1 MOT is made up of materials that would otherwise go to landfills. Our drivers go to demolition sites around Welham Green and scoop up concrete. There are lots of hardcore materials on active demolition sites. Batches of this product contain concrete, limestone, granite, and brick. 

We recommend Recycled Type 1 MOT to contractors who need affordable, durable sub bases. The pieces in the batch range from dust to 40mm. The different sizes slot together to create strong sub bases, patios, and motorways.  

MOT Type 2 Clean

Products that have the acronym MOT in the title are suitable for sub bases. 

This type of MOT is unique because it does not contain dust particles. Our team collect limestone and granite from quarries. They crush the materials down to 40mm and remove all the other small bits of materials. 

MOT Type 2 is popular amongst contractors who need to create drainage systems. It has a high flow rate, which means that liquids can pass through quickly.

6F5 and 6F2 Recycled Aggregates 75mm

Sand, slag, and stone are just a few of the aggregates that might be in this batch. Our drivers scoop up a wide range of aggregates from demolition sites around Welham Green. They put the materials into a crushing machine to create 75mm pieces.

75mm pieces are the largest chunks that we sell. When it comes to bulk-fill tasks, contractors can save money when they buy bigger materials. 

Screened Crushed Concrete Type 1 40mm

This product contains concrete that is excavated from quarries. The materials are loaded into a concrete crusher. This process creates dust particles that make up a large percentage of the product. 

Screening is a manufacturing process that removes fine dust particles from batches of materials. The 40mm Type 1 that we stock only contains large chunks. 

Concrete floor screening is suitable for lots of flooring tasks. It is suitable for bases that are anywhere above 4 inches. 

Screened Crushed Concrete 75mm

Like our 40mm concrete screening, 75mm concrete screening only contains large chunks. We filter all the dust particles and fine pieces of concrete out of the batch. 

Contractors buy larger pieces of crushed concrete for bigger flooring projects. Concrete floor screening is affordable and durable. 

Unlike our other concrete products, screened concrete comes directly from quarries.

Will crushed concrete compact?

Yes! Hardcore materials compact under the right circumstances. 

Contractors put a lot of pressure on our crushed materials. Most of our materials go into sub bases, motorways, driveways, and patios. Sub bases act as building blocks for lots of different construction tasks. When formations rest on top of bases, the materials in the bases begin to compact.

When hardcore materials compact, they reduce in height. Contractors need to keep a close eye on their sub bases. They are responsible for making sure that their sub bases meet building requirements. 

Does crushed concrete drain?

Crushed concrete is just one of the materials that we sell. 

We sell hardcore materials in big batches. All batches of materials have a flow rate. The flow rate of a batch tells us how quickly liquids pass through it. 

Some of our batches have a high flow rate. We filter all the fine pieces of dust out of MOT Type 2, which means that only 40mm chunks remain. Liquids can pass through the batch very quickly. 

We also sell batches that contain materials that range from dust to 75mm. These products have a low flow rate and are not suitable for people who need to create drainage systems.

Will crushed concrete harden?

Our crushed materials go into lots of construction projects. 

In most cases, contractors use our materials to create sub bases, motorways, and patios. To create these formations, builders have to lay and roll the materials. 

Once the materials are set, builders can use the base as a building block. The weight of the structure forces the materials in the base to compact and harden. 

Ready mix concrete is much stronger and harder than the crushed alternative. 

Is crushed concrete toxic?

Crushed concrete can be harmful. 

Our drivers take all the precautions necessary to protect themselves from airborne particles. Particles become airborne when our drivers break pieces of concrete away from quarries and demolition sites. They wear industrial masks and other protective equipment. 

Concrete can be dangerous if it is not handled correctly. It is a heavy hardcore material. Once our drivers drop the materials off on construction sites, builders have to follow health and safety practices. 

For more information about the toxicity of concrete, call 01992 635454. 

What is a sub base?

Sub bases provide support for other building formations. They act as the load-bearing element in a lot of construction projects. Sub bases can support motorways, pavements, patios, and even building structures. 

If sub bases are laid correctly, they can even aid drainage and reduce channelisation. Channelisation looks like ‘ruts’ in paving. When cars travel over sub bases that are not laid correctly, the materials will gather in one or two areas.  

Sub bases do not have to be thick. Even a 100mm sub base can improve the load-bearing qualities of the surface material.

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

We encourage customers to call us about health and safety concerns. We have sourced, tested, and delivered crushed materials for years. Our team follow industry-wide safety regulations to create the safest service possible. 

Our drivers have years of experience in the industry. They can advise customers about the best practices for their sites.
