- If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.

Things to check before you order
How deep?
Patios and paths commonly use around 100 mm of compacted sub-base, and domestic driveways around 150 mm or more. Soft ground or heavier vehicles need more; your designer or installer will confirm.
Compaction
Lay and compact in layers with a plate compactor. Allow extra material because it compacts down.
Sizing your order
An 8 × 3 m area at 100 mm compacted is 2.4 m³. At about 2.1 tonnes per cubic metre plus 10% that is 5.5 tonnes, or around 7 bulk bags. Try the sub-base calculator

We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.
