2" Crushed Concrete in Durham Region

2" (50mm) Recycled Concrete

Recycled concrete aggregate or crushed concrete in 2-inch nominal size offers an environmentally responsible and cost-effective solution for road base, driveways, drainage applications, and construction fill projects. Produced by crushing clean concrete from demolition and construction sites, this material delivers performance comparable to virgin aggregate while reducing environmental impact and project costs.

The 2-inch sizing makes this material ideal for base layers beneath asphalt or concrete surfaces, parking areas, roadway construction, and heavy-duty applications requiring substantial load-bearing capacity. The angular shape of crushed concrete particles creates excellent interlocking characteristics, resulting in superior compaction and long-term stability under traffic and heavy loads. When properly compacted, recycled concrete base provides a stable platform that resists settling and shifting.

Recycled concrete aggregate offers excellent drainage properties, allowing water to percolate through rather than pooling on the surface. This free-draining characteristic makes it particularly valuable for French drain systems, foundation drainage, and applications where water management is critical. The material's porosity helps prevent frost heaving in cold climates while maintaining structural integrity.

Using recycled concrete reduces landfill waste, conserves natural aggregate resources, and typically costs 20-30% less than virgin stone products. Quality recycled concrete is processed to remove contaminants, ensuring clean material free from asphalt, wood, metal, or other debris.

Bulk delivery makes large-scale projects economical and efficient. Whether building new driveways, establishing road base, creating drainage systems, or backfilling foundation walls, 2-inch recycled concrete provides reliable performance at competitive pricing. Proper compaction in 4-6 inch lifts ensures maximum density and long-term durability for demanding applications.
