MOT Type 1 Sub-base: choosing well
Virgin or recycled?
Recycled Type 1 can be a good option where it meets the specification; ask what your project or local authority requires.
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.
Quantities: a worked example
An 8 × 5 m area at 150 mm compacted is 6 m³. At about 2.1 tonnes per cubic metre plus 10% that is 13.9 tonnes, or around 17 bulk bags. Try the sub-base calculator
Before your High Wycombe delivery arrives
Bulk bags are usually crane-offloaded where access allows; very large quantities can be priced as loose tipped loads where access allows. High Wycombe is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
- Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
- Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
