MOT Type 1 Sub-base: choosing well
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.
Before your Lytham St Annes delivery arrives

- On busy streets in Lytham St Annes, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
MOT Type 1 Sub-base questions
Can I add other materials to my Lytham St Annes delivery?
Yes. Put everything on one list, from MOT Type 1 to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.
Does Type 1 drain?
Type 1 is reasonably free-draining when compacted, which is one reason it is used under drives and patios.
How soon can MOT Type 1 be delivered in Lytham St Annes?
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.
Can you tip it loose?
For larger quantities we can price a loose tipped load if the lorry can reach and there is space to tip.
