What types of crushed concrete do you stock?

Contractors in Welwyn Garden City rely on us for a range of crushed materials. 

We specialise in crushed limestone, granite, and concrete. Some of our batches contain a combination of big and small chunks whereas others just contain one size.

Batches that contain pieces of limestone and granite are called MOT. MOT stands for Ministry of Transport. This ministry is an old transport regulatory body. If materials are suitable for sub bases they will have this acronym in the title.

We recommend MOT Type 1 for sub bases, motorways, and patios. The materials have excellent load-bearing qualities and can handle heavy structures.

Recycled Type 1 MOT

This is the recycled version of regular Type 1. It is installed in the same way and also has excellent load-bearing qualities.

The pieces in this batch range from 40mm to dust. Recycled MOT is perfect for people who want hardy, affordable materials.

MOT Type 2 Clean

MOT Type 2 is sometimes called Clean MOT. 

Our drivers use industrial machines to collect limestone and granite from quarries. All the materials pass through a crushing machine that produces 40mm and smaller pieces.

We filter all the fine pieces of dust out of the batch. The only thing that remains is 40mm chunks. We recommend this product for customers who need to create drainage systems. It has a high flow rate, which means that liquids can pass through quickly.

Screened Crushed Concrete Type 1 40mm

Our drivers excavate quarries around Welwyn Garden City. They collect concrete and place it in a crushed concrete machine. It produces pieces of concrete that range from dust to 40mm. 

Screening is a manufacturing process that removes fine materials. We put the materials in a net-like structure that separates the concrete dust from the 40mm pieces of concrete. Once the process is complete, only 40mm chunks remain.

Concrete floor screening is robust. It can support a range of flooring tasks and sub bases that need materials that are above 4 inches. 

Screened Crushed Concrete 75mm

This product is identical to our other concrete floor screening, except the pieces are 75mm. Larger pieces of concrete are better suited to bigger flooring projects.

What are sub bases?

Sub bases are the load-bearing element of lots of construction projects. They support pavements, motorways, patios, and any other building formation. Most of the time, sub bases support heavy transport structures. 

Builders spread sub base materials evenly. Sub bases are designed to evenly bear the weight of whatever formation sits on top. 

When bases are laid correctly, they can reduce the chance of channelisation. This is a problem that is common in motorway sub bases. Cars travel over the base every day and force the materials to collect in a few spots.

What can I use crushed concrete for?

Crushed concrete is just one of the materials that we sell. We sell different versions of this material. Some products contain a combination of big and small materials and others contain just one size. 

We also sell crushed aggregates, limestone, and granite. MOT is a popular construction material that contains limestone and granite. 

Here are some of the ways that customers use our materials.

  • Sub bases – Sub bases support heavy structures such as motorways and even building structures. Concrete, MOT, and even aggregates can go into sub bases.
  • Drainage systems – MOT Type 2 is perfect for drainage systems because it only contains 40mm chunks. Liquids can pass through the materials without dislodging anything.
  • Bulk-fill projects – Lots of contractors buy 6F2 Recycled Aggregates for bulk-fill projects. This product contains a range of hardy, affordable materials.

Will crushed concrete compact?

Most of our customers buy crushed materials for sub bases. Sub bases materials are spread thin and rolled into place. This process forces the crushed materials to compact. 

Once sub bases set, builders can start creating formations. Formations might include motorways, patios, or even buildings. The weight of the formations forces the materials to compact even more.

Of course, if customers buy crushed materials for other projects they might not compact. Lots of our customers create drainage systems. The materials in these systems are not rolled, which means that they will not compact.

Does crushed concrete drain?

All batches of crushed materials drain to an extent. 

The rate that materials drain is called a flow rate. Some materials have high flow rates, whereas others have low flow rates. 

Contractors have to be sure to choose the right kind of material for their construction project. 

Drainage systems need materials that have high flow rates. MOT Type 2 is perfect for drainage systems because it undergoes screening. Screening is a manufacturing process that removes fine pieces of dust from products. 

The other types of MOT that we sell have low flow rates. 

Will crushed concrete harden?

Crushed materials harden under the right circumstances. 

If contractors use our materials in sub bases, they will harden. Sub bases can be very thin. Builders spread the materials and roll them out, sometimes to depths as low as 5 inches. This process forces the materials to compact, which makes them bond and harden. 

For a stronger, harder alternative, we recommend ready mix concrete.

Is crushed concrete toxic?

All crushed hardcore materials have a level of toxicity. This also applies to crushed concrete. 

We reduce the chance of long-term health issues in a number of ways. When they scoop up concrete, particles become airborne. If people inhale concrete particles they might experience long-term health issues. Our drivers wear masks during the sourcing process. 

Builders should always wear masks and other protective equipment.
