Soils and Stone provide permeable sub-base aggregates and laying course sands for use on roadways, hard standings or driveways where a Sustainable Drainage System (SuDS) is required. SuDS aggregates allow surface water to permeate through the sub-base into the underlying ground.
With increasing pressure on further urban development planners and developers alike need to take account of how water run-off is managed.
Using SuDS can
Angular in nature, when compacted down, the SuDS aggregate locks together to create a strong, stable and porous sub-base which allows water to be stored and then gradually released. This is topped off with a laying course and permeable paving.
Available in limestone or granite, this material contains no fines.
Soils and Stone can supply 2 – 6mm, 4 – 20mm, 10 – 63mm permeable sub-base aggregate nationwide, in the loose or via industry standard bulk bags. Our delivery options include grab, tipper or hiab crane off-load. Call our team today to discuss your requirement.
Our 2 – 6mm is an ideal top layer of any SuDS solutions.
Typically, a 50mm top bedding layer of 2 – 6 mm SuDS is placed on larger 250mm course of 4 – 20mm SuDS aggregate prior to laying permeable block paving. This combination will allow excess water to slowly drain into the underlying ground and water systems.
All materials are delivered in the loose or via industry standard bulk bags. Our delivery options include grab, tipper, hiab off load or artics (site constraints permitting).
Minimum order of 10 Bulk Bags or 10 m3
Our 4 – 20mm SuDS aggregate is an ideal upper sub base material when creating any permeable solution. It’s larger size means it is often used as a base layer to our 2 – 6mm SuDs aggregate. In addition it provides increased void space allowing even water storage.
All materials are delivered in the loose or via industry standard bulk bags. Our delivery options include grab, tipper, hiab off load or artics (site constraints permitting).
Minimum order of 10 Bulk Bags or 10 m3
Our 10 – 63mm SuDS aggregate is an ideal lower sub base material when creating any permeable solution.
A clean, no fines angular stone provides a 30% void space and enhanced water storage capability when laid on the sub-grade.
