Armstrongs Group

Operating from 5 quarries across the North West and Cumbria, Armstrongs is a reliable supplier of all forms of stone material from rock armor or cut dimension stone down to aggregate, sand or dust.

Our quarries produce attractive shades of sandstone, with the exception of Shap in Cumbria which is the home of the famous Shap pink granite, all with good reserves to ensure continuity of supply. We have extensive sawing capabilities and can produce any form of cut stone requested from bricks to a solid stone ball, nameplates to fireplaces.

Armstrongs will also undertake other aspects of groundworks, e.g. muck away, and we operate our own inert tip in Horwich, Lancashire. With an eye on sustainability, we also produce recycled aggregate at our head office in Horwich, so customers can be confident their site clearance will be dealt with in an environmentally friendly way.

Armstrongs also supplies high quality ready mixed concrete through our Amix subsidiary, using our granite product to maximise strength. Our locations are within easy reach of the region’s motorways, enabling us to supply aggregate across the whole north of England and the north Midlands and Wales.

As well as offering competitive pricing, we provide a quality product and customer service is paramount. This is shown by the Armstrongs testimonials provided by our valued construction clients, ranging from the largest multinationals to local contractors. Our policy of high reinvestment in quality plant and vehicles, such as Metso crushers, Dernaseer washers, Scania wagons and Schwing Stetter mixers, further ensures reliable production and delivery through our 60 strong fleet.

In 2014, we were honoured to be asked to export our Dimension Stone for the first time to the Basilica de la Sagrada Familia in Barcelona where there is an ongoing project to finally complete the vision of Antoni Gaudi, initially commenced in 1882. The project is set to complete in 2026 and the Armstrongs Group is proud that many tonnes of stone from Chorley, Lancashire will help complete this final phase.
