Aggregates

Choosing the right aggregate

Sharp sand is the one for screeds, concrete and bedding slabs. Soft building sand is for bricklaying and pointing mortar. Ballast is pre-mixed sand and gravel for concrete footings and bases, while MOT Type 1 is a compactable sub-base for driveways and patios. Bulk bags hold roughly 850kg and are delivered by crane or tail lift to the kerbside. Not sure how much you need? Call the yard with your measurements and we will work it out for you.
