Foundation Contractors

Foundation piling is the process of inserting deep supports, such as wood, steel, or concrete piles, into the ground to stabilise structures. It’s essential for ensuring a solid foundation, especially on unstable or varied soil types.

We provide comprehensive foundation services, including pile installation, pile cap foundations, reinforced concrete slabs, and raft foundations, catering to both residential and commercial projects.

If your building is on weak or shifting soil, or you’re experiencing structural issues like cracks, foundation piling can provide essential support. Our team can assess your property to determine the best solution.

Yes, we offer free site assessments to evaluate ground conditions and recommend the most effective and cost-efficient foundation solution for your project.

Shallow foundations support buildings close to ground level and are typically used for lighter structures on suitable soil. Deep foundations transfer loads to stronger soil or rock layers further below the surface and are used for heavier buildings or poor ground conditions.

Strip foundations are shallow foundations formed by pouring concrete into trenches beneath load-bearing walls. They are commonly used in residential construction where ground conditions allow.

Raft foundations, also known as mat foundations, are reinforced concrete slabs that cover the entire footprint of a building. They spread loads evenly across the ground and are often used where soil conditions are weak but consistent.

No. Many buildings can be safely supported on shallow foundations if ground conditions are suitable. A site assessment is required to determine the most appropriate foundation system.

Yes. Techniques such as underpinning or piling can be used to strengthen existing foundations where movement, subsidence or increased load is an issue.

Ground beams are reinforced concrete beams that distribute loads between piles or footings. They are commonly used in combination with piling systems to support structural walls.

Subsidence is the downward movement of a building caused by changes in the supporting soil. Common causes include clay shrinkage, tree roots, drainage issues and changes in groundwater levels.
