Building Aggregates

About Our Building Aggregates

Building aggregates are essential materials across groundwork, construction and landscaping projects. From forming solid sub-bases and mixing concrete to finishing paths and improving drainage, the right aggregate keeps jobs moving and specifications on track. 

At The Builders Supply Company, we supply a broad range of construction aggregates used daily by builders, groundworkers and landscapers who need consistent grading, dependable availability and straightforward logistics.

Various Aggregates For Construction & Landscaping

Our aggregate categories are structured to make product selection clear, based on how materials are typically used on site. Each range covers common specifications required across domestic, commercial and civil work.

Sand, Gravel, MOT, and Ballast

The sand, gravel, MOT and ballast range covers the core materials used in groundwork and concreting. This includes building sand, concrete sand, ballast mixes, MOT Type 1 sub-base and graded gravels. These aggregates are commonly specified for foundations, drainage layers, concrete mixes, slab bedding and drive construction. Correct grading and cleanliness are critical here, helping achieve proper compaction, strength and water movement.

Bark, Top Soil, and Turf

For landscaping and external finishing work, the bark, top soil and turf range supports both preparation and final presentation. These materials are typically used for garden builds, commercial landscaping schemes and property finishing. Quality top soil improves planting performance, while bark helps with weed suppression and moisture retention. Turf completes projects quickly with a consistent surface, often required on tight handover programmes.

Rock Salt, Grano, and Tarmac

Our rock salt, grano and tarmac focuses on maintenance, access and surface repair. Rock salt is widely used for winter treatment of roads, car parks and walkways. These products are often required at short notice, making a reliable supply particularly important.
