The extraction of sand and gravel has been at the core of Summerleaze operations since its foundation and has provided the financial base for subsequent business developments.
Today, the company’s principal gravel processing operations are based in the Thames Valley at sites in Maidenhead, Bray, Burnham and more recently, Denham. Over the last 80 years, sand and gravel from Summerleaze quarries has played a major part in supplying the aggregate needed for the construction of many thousands of homes, offices, schools, hospitals and roads in the Thames Valley. During this time, over 15 million tonnes of aggregate have been processed and supplied to projects such as these.
Given the proximity of the M4 and M40 and the growing conurbations to the west of London, these quarries continue to prove well-placed to supply vital construction materials to projects of all sizes.
As a local family company, Summerleaze supplies a full range of aggregates to local businesses and the general public, in any size of deliveries and collections from one to twenty-two tonnes. Aggregates including Type 1, scalpings and building sand are available alongside the complete range of sand and gravel products from 6mm to 40mm shingle and sharp sand.

Our sites
Bray Quarry is situated close to the M4 just off the A308. It is the main processing plant for Summerleaze in the Maidenhead area, capable of producing more than 400,000 tonnes of sand and gravel. It provides collection and delivery facilities for all aggregate types used in construction. Previously the processing plant for Eton Aggregates, the site now relies on imports of unprocessed sand and gravel from satellite quarries in the Thames Valley.

Denham Quarry is situated close to Junction 1 on the M40. The quarry at Denham in Buckinghamshire contains 2.4 million tonnes of high quality sand and gravel aggregate. A strategic partnership between Summerleaze and London Concrete has meant that much of the high quality aggregate at Denham is supplied directly to the on-site concrete plant, thereby removing unnecessary vehicle movements.
