What types of crushed concrete do you stock?
We sell a few types of crushed concrete. Some of our batches contain materials that range from debris to 75mm pieces. We screen other batches of concrete so that the finished product only contains big chunks.
Contractors in Whetstone also call us for limestone, granite, and aggregates. Batches of aggregates are more affordable than primary building materials.
Limestone and granite are primary building materials. They go into MOT, a popular construction product. We sell a wide range of MOT products. Keep reading to discover the full range of our materials.
MOT Type 1 near me
MOT products are approved for use in transport sub bases. The term MOT comes from the Ministry of Transport. Even though this regulator is not active, it still lends its name to high-quality crushed materials. Any product that is called MOT has received the Ministry of Transport’s seal of approval.
The limestone and granite in this product come from quarries. We collect the materials, grind them together, and deliver them to sites across Whetstone. MOT Type 1 hardcore contains materials as small as debris and as big as 40mm.
Lots of our customers roll this product to create sub bases. Once the base is ready, labourers can create all kinds of transport structures.
Recycled Type 1 MOT
Recycled MOT Type 1 is an affordable alternative to regular Type 1.
As the name suggests, this product contains recycled materials. We go to active demolition sites around Whetstone to collect limestone, brick, concrete, and granite. We put this assortment of materials in a crushing machine. The finished product contains everything from small particles to 40mm chunks.
Recycled Type 1 MOT sub bases can support all kinds of structures. Contractors buy this material when they need to create strong bases for buildings, driveways, and paths.
MOT Type 2 Clean
So, what is MOT Type 2?
This product is different from all the other types of MOT that we sell. We collect limestone and granite from quarries around Whetstone. Once we have ground the materials down to 40mm, we screen them. Screening is a manufacturing process that splits big and small materials.
MOT Type 2 only contains 40mm pieces of primary building materials. It is a very strong, robust batch. Lots of contractors buy it for drainage systems. There are no small pieces, which means that there is nothing to obstruct liquids.
6F5 and 6F2 Recycled Aggregates 75mm
Some customers refer to our 6F2 Recycled Aggregates as 6F5 Recycled Aggregates.
To create this batch, our drivers go to demolition sites around Whetstone. When homes and buildings are being demolished, our team scoops up the materials. A batch of our Recycled 6F2 could contain anything from sand to stone and even slag.
All the pieces in this batch range from dust to 75mm. Lots of contractors buy it for bulk-fill tasks.
Screened Crushed Concrete Type 1 40mm
Screened products only contain big pieces of materials.
In this case, this product only contains 40mm pieces of crushed concrete. Our drivers collect the concrete from quarries and put them in a crushing machine. Then, we use a big industrial-sized net to separate the sizes.
Screened crushed concrete is designed for flooring tasks. Concrete floor screening is a staple on construction sites all over Whetstone. It can hold all kinds of floors from patios to pavements.
Screened Crushed Concrete 75mm
Likewise, we screen this product to remove all the small pieces. Only 75mm pieces of crushed concrete remain in this batch.
Bigger pieces are perfect for larger concrete floor screening projects. If contractors have wider areas to cover, they should consider 75mm crushed concrete.

What are sub bases?
Sub bases are simple structures. They go underneath formations such as buildings and motorways. They are usually made from crushed materials. Bases are designed to hold the weight of structures and evenly distribute weight.
MOT Type 1 sub bases are a popular choice for contractors in Whetstone. This product contains primary building materials that have excellent load-bearing characteristics.
To create bases, labourers have to roll crushed materials. This forces them to compact into a strong, sturdy base. Once the base has been set, contractors can start to build their structures.

What can I use crushed concrete for?
Our materials are very versatile. We sell a range of crushed concrete, MOT, and aggregate products for all kinds of construction tasks.
If contractors need to create strong sub bases, we recommend MOT Type 1 hardcore. This material contains two primary building materials: limestone and granite. Together, they form strong bases that have excellent load-bearing qualities.
For drainage systems, we recommend screened products. MOT Type 2 is one of the most popular screened products that we sell because it contains primary building materials. This batch contains 40mm pieces of limestone and granite. Overall, the product has a high flow rate.
We also cater to contractors who have to complete bulk-fill tasks. Batches of 6F5 Recycled Aggregates are perfect for these kinds of projects. This product contains affordable, strong recycled materials.
Will crushed concrete compact?
It depends.
If contracts use crushed concrete for drainage systems, the pieces are not likely to compact. If they use crushed materials in bases, they will compact. This is due to the installation process.
To create and install a sub base, labourers have to roll the materials. Even a thin layer of MOT Type 1 can create a strong sub base. No matter how thin the base is, it needs to be compact.
Does crushed concrete drain?
All crushed materials drain to some extent.
Crushed concrete is just one of the materials that we sell. We sell batches of concrete that contain a range of sizes and other batches that only contain big pieces.
Products that contain a mixture of sizes have low flow rates. The lower the flow rate, the slower the materials drain through.
Products that only contain one size have high flow rates. All sorts of liquids can pass through MOT Type 2 or screened crushed concrete without a problem.
Is crushed concrete harmful?
Crushed concrete can be harmful.
Concrete is very high in alkali. When liquids pass through concrete they absorb alkali and become leachates. Harmful alkalis can then transfer to anything that the leachate touches. To reduce the chance of this happening, contractors can put in place pH controls.
Concrete particles can become airborne at any moment. When they do, there is a high chance that labourers will inhale the particles. This can cause long-term health implications. To avoid this problem, labourers can wear masks.
