Limestone 10mm – 800kg Bulk Bag

About this item:
Limestone 10mm is a crushed natural aggregate suitable for construction, drainage and landscaping projects. Its compact 10mm grading makes it practical for concrete mixes, paths, driveways, borders, pipe bedding and decorative ground cover. The angular particles provide a firm walking surface and help the material settle more securely than rounded gravel, while the natural pale grey colouring works well across domestic and commercial outdoor areas.

Supplied in a nominal 800kg bulk bag, this limestone is suitable for larger projects where individual bags would be inefficient. It can provide good drainage when the supplied material has a suitably low fines content and can also be used as the coarse aggregate within an appropriately specified concrete mix. For paths and driveways, it should be installed over a correctly prepared and compacted sub-base with suitable edging to limit movement. As a quarried material, colour, particle shape, moisture content and delivered volume may vary naturally between batches.

Common Questions:
Q. How much area will an 800kg bulk bag cover?
A. Coverage depends on moisture, compaction and laying depth. As a general guide, an 800kg bag provides approximately 0.5m³ and may cover around 9–11m² at 50mm deep.

Q. Can Limestone 10mm be used on driveways?
A. Yes, it can be used as a surface layer for domestic driveways and paths. It should be installed over a properly compacted sub-base and retained with edging to reduce spreading and movement.

Q. Can it be used instead of a Type 1 sub-base?
A. No. Limestone 10mm is not a direct substitute for well-graded Type 1 material where a load-bearing sub-base is required. Use the specified sub-base first and apply the 10mm limestone as the appropriate surface or drainage layer.

Q. Is Limestone 10mm suitable for concrete?
A. Yes. It can be used as the coarse aggregate in fine concrete mixes when combined with suitable sand, cement and water. Structural concrete must follow the required mix design and strength specification.

Q. Is it suitable for drainage and pipe bedding?
A. Generally, yes. Its small particle size suits drainage and pipe-bedding applications, but confirm that the supplied grading and fines content meet the project specification, particularly for regulated drainage work.
