Aggregate

Summary: We supply aggregates in Bradford including sand, gravel, MOT Type 1, ballast, decorative chippings, bark, topsoil, and rock salt. Available in bulk or trade bags, with reliable delivery and expert advice.

What Are Aggregates?

Aggregates are essential construction and landscaping materials, made from natural or recycled stone, gravel, and sand. They are used in everything from concrete and mortar mixes to driveways, drainage, and decorative finishes.

Types of Aggregates and Their Uses

We stock a complete selection, from heavy-duty sub-base materials to decorative finishes:

• Sand, Gravel, MOT & Ballast – Ideal for concrete mixes, laying slabs, and providing strong sub-bases for patios and driveways.
• Bark, Topsoil & Turf – Perfect for garden borders, landscaping projects, and creating healthy lawns.
• Decorative Aggregates – Chippings and pebbles to enhance paths, borders, and outdoor features.
• Rock Salt, Grano & Tarmac – Essential for winter gritting, surfacing, and specialist applications.

We also stock a full range of other building materials so you can complete your project from one supplier.

Choosing the Right Aggregate

The best aggregate depends on your project type, load-bearing requirements, and finish. MOT Type 1 is ideal for strong, compacted base layers, while washed gravel works well for drainage. Decorative chippings provide a more visual appeal, and sharp sand is a go-to for mortar and screeds. Our team can help recommend which aggregate is right for you, alongside coverage.
