How do you choose the right piling solution for a project? caret-down

The right solution depends on the ground conditions, structural loads, access, neighbouring structures, noise and vibration limits, whether the works are temporary or permanent, and the project programme. Our design and technical team reviews these factors with you before recommending the most appropriate piling method.

What information do you need to recommend a piling solution? caret-down

The most useful starting information includes the site layout, structural loads, ground investigation or geotechnical information, groundwater conditions, access and headroom, nearby structures and services, environmental constraints, and the required programme. If some details are still being developed, involving us early can help identify the information needed for an efficient design.

Do you provide both piling design and installation? caret-down

Yes. We provide bespoke piling design and installation as either stand-alone or integrated services. Our team can work with you from the early concept and design stages through to mobilisation, installation and completion, helping to coordinate a practical solution around the wider construction programme.

Which piling services do you provide? caret-down

Our services include sheet piling, bored piling, driven piling, king post walls and combination wall solutions, supported by in-house design and pile testing expertise. The most suitable method will depend on the required performance, site constraints and ground conditions rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.

Can you work on sites with restricted access or strict noise and vibration limits? caret-down

Yes, where the site and ground conditions allow. We own a broad range of specialist piling plant and can consider low-noise, low-vibration and restricted-access techniques for sensitive locations. Access, working space, nearby structures, services and environmental requirements are assessed before the installation method is confirmed.

What affects the cost and programme of a piling project? caret-down

The main factors include ground conditions, design loads, pile type, depth and quantity, site access, plant mobilisation, materials and reinforcement, spoil handling, testing requirements, environmental controls and the construction sequence. Once the available project information has been reviewed, we can provide a proposal based on the specific scope and constraints.
