Crushed Concrete

Crushed concrete is one of the most popular aggregates on the market today. A mostly recycled material, it’s often harvested from demolition sites, making it highly sustainable and a more environmentally friendly option than other forms of building material.
Our groundworks contractors mainly use this material for trench fills and granular subbases. It is particularly well-suited to creating well-draining subbases for roads and car parks. Our grab hire and tipper hire services are often commissioned to transport type one, two and three crushed concrete. These materials are an essential part of many projects that we offer as part of our construction services package.

Sand

Sand is a hugely versatile material, a fact that may be surprising to the average beachgoer. There are many different types, including sharp sand and ballast sand, and they each have their own use when it comes to construction. Sand is a common site on a hard landscaping project, as it is often used for laying block paving and other kinds of driveway materials.
It is also essential for making concrete and cement, both of which form the basis of most building projects, as well as being the key component in rendering. This material truly is invaluable.

Gravel

There are two main types of gravel: naturally formed and construction grade. The latter is purpose-made for construction services, and the former is naturally formed, often from rivers and other moving bodies of water.
Gravel is frequently used for the following purposes:
It is a fantastic resource for decorating your garden and is also a very common way to lay a driveway. We often find that our tipper hire and grab hire services are used for the transportation of gravel. Although less practical than other aggregates such as MOT type 1 or hardcore, it is nevertheless a useful material that our groundworks contractors often find themselves using.
