New public buildings, extensions and remedial underpinning, with practical piled solutions for difficult sites and public budgets.

Value the public can see.

Whether it’s a piled foundation for a new building, an extension to an existing one or remedial piled underpinning, we’ve worked with various local authorities to provide cost-efficient, practical piled solutions to difficult site conditions.

Council sites are often in the middle of communities: next to homes, schools and roads, with the public close by and every pound accountable. We plan for that, with clear method statements, considerate working and a firm price for a solution that suits the ground.

  • Cost-efficientThe right solution for your ground, not the most expensive one.
  • Fully accreditedBSI ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001 certified, CHAS Elite, Constructionline Gold and SafeContractor approved.
  • Design includedOur engineers can design the piles and RC foundations, or install to your engineer’s design.

On public sitesWhat we plan for

Public projects come with public scrutiny. These are the pressures we plan around from the first estimate.

Neighbours and the public

Low-noise, low-vibration methods and tidy, well-managed sites where people live and work close by.
