Want to protect the planet and your bottom line?

Consider recycled aggregates from Grundy & Co Excavations Ltd when searching for MOT Type 1 – perfect for construction projects across the North West.

What is MOT Type 1?

Sometimes referred to as Type 1 subbase, MOT Type 1 is a granular crushed aggregate that conforms to requirements set out by the Ministry of Transport.

When used as a sub-base, it ensures a flat and compact surface with excellent load-bearing capacity. This is achieved because the varying particle sizes interlock and distribute weight evenly to create a stable and durable hardcore base.

MOT Type 1 contains the largest-sized crushed materials, ranging from 40mm to dust, and is predominantly made up of limestone, concrete, and granite, but can also include gritstone, basalt, and recycled materials including bricks and hardcore.

Who needs MOT Type 1 in Chester?

MOT Type 1 is suitable for a wide range of private and public projects, including:

  • Roads
  • Pavements
  • Driveways
  • Car parks
  • Patios
  • Garen paths
  • Trench fills
  • Artificial grass
  • Over-site fills

As such, any project that requires a topping of asphalt, concrete, shingle, or block paving is also suitable for an MOT Type 1 sub-base.
