When it comes to creating durable driveways, attractive pathways, or beautifully landscaped gardens, choosing the right aggregates makes all the difference. In Cornwall – where weather, terrain, and coastal conditions can be demanding – quality materials are essential. At J Keane Plant Hire in Truro, we supply a comprehensive range of high‑quality aggregates, sands, soils, and decorative stone suitable for every type of construction or landscaping project.
Whether you’re refreshing your garden, laying a new driveway, or building from the ground up, our locally sourced aggregates offer strength, longevity, and great visual appeal. With both collection and delivery available across Truro and the wider Cornwall area, we make it easy to get the materials you need, when you need them.
Where to Buy Quality Aggregates in Cornwall
At J Keane Plant Hire, we pride ourselves on supplying premium, carefully sourced aggregates that meet the highest standards of durability and performance. Our materials are suitable for domestic, commercial, and agricultural projects, and we offer everything from gravel and sand to topsoil, crushed concrete, and decorative chippings.
We stock aggregates bagged or loose, and with our fleet of haulage trucks, we can deliver efficiently to homes, businesses, and construction sites throughout Truro. If you’re based further afield in Cornwall, we can arrange a delivery time that suits your schedule.
Top Aggregates for Driveways, Paths & Landscaping
Cornwall’s landscapes are unique, and the right materials can help your outdoor spaces withstand the elements while looking fantastic. Here are some of the most popular aggregates we supply for driveways, pathways, and landscaping projects.
1. Granite Chippings
Granite chippings are one of the most durable and visually appealing options for driveways and paths. Their angular shape helps them lock together, creating a stable surface that resists movement.
2. Golden Flint Chippings
For homeowners looking to add warmth and colour to their outdoor spaces, Golden Flint is a favourite. Available in both 10mm and 20mm sizes, these chippings are perfect for decorative pathways, garden borders, and driveways that need a touch of character.
3. Sharp Sand & Fine Sand
Sand is essential for construction mixes, block paving, and landscaping foundations.
- Sharp Sand is ideal for laying slabs, block paving, and creating strong sub‑bases.
- Fine Sand is perfect for mortar mixes, rendering, and finishing work.
All our sand is locally quarried, ensuring excellent quality and reduced environmental impact.
4. Topsoil for Gardens & Landscaping
Healthy gardens start with nutrient‑rich soil. Our certified topsoil is screened, high‑quality, and perfect for:
- Laying new lawns
- Filling raised beds
- Planting borders
- General landscaping
Topsoil depth typically ranges from 13–25cm, and choosing the right type is essential for plant health. Our premium topsoil supports strong root development and vibrant growth, helping your garden thrive year‑round.
5. Crushed Concrete & Recycled Aggregates
For eco‑friendly and cost‑effective construction, crushed concrete is an excellent choice. It’s ideal for:
- Sub‑bases
- Hardstandings
- Driveway foundations
- General construction fill
Using recycled aggregates helps reduce waste and supports sustainable building practices across Cornwall.
6. Pipe Bedding, Dust & 803
We also supply a range of specialist aggregates including:
- Pipe Bedding for drainage and utility installations
- Granite Dust for compacting and levelling
- 803 for strong, stable sub‑bases
These materials are essential for ensuring long‑lasting structural integrity in both domestic and commercial projects.
