Questions

Questions about Red Crushed Brick (10-20mm)

How much 20mm red crushed brick do I need?

It weighs around 1.1 tonnes per cubic metre. Laid 40 to 50mm deep over a 15 square metre bed you need about 0.7 cubic metres, roughly 0.8 tonnes. Check your own area with our calculator.

What is the difference between red crushed brick and red brick fines?

Red brick fines is the finest cut, screened down small so it compacts to a firm even surface for paths, courts and arenas. The 10-20mm is a coarser grade meant as ground cover, garden beds and drainage backfill, where you want texture and voids rather than a compacted surface.

Can I use this for drainage as well as garden cover?

Yes, it doubles as a free-draining medium behind retaining walls and around soakwells as well as a decorative ground cover.

Is there a coarser grade available?

Yes, we also carry a 35mm grade of the same red crushed brick for a chunkier texture and faster drainage.

Is it tested for asbestos?

WA recyclers that process construction and demolition material, including us, operate under regulatory requirements covering how material is accepted, inspected and handled, with procedures for isolating anything suspect. That's an industry framework rather than a certificate on every load. If asbestos testing matters for your job, ask us about the specific load you're buying before you order.

Do I need weed mat under it?

Weed mat or geotextile under the first layer slows weeds and stops the material working down into the soil below. Put it in when you lay it rather than fighting weeds later.

Is it safe for kids and pets to walk on?

Yes, it's fine underfoot for kids and pets. It's a chunkier 10-20mm grade rather than a fine dust, so it's comfortable to walk and play on.

Will the colour fade over time?

The rich terracotta colour holds in full sun with natural variation piece to piece, and being crushed masonry it doesn't rot or fade like mulch.
