How much do you know about piling methods, such as driven cased and restricted access piling? Would you know if basement conversions or other projects in the Wimbledon area require underpinning services without the input of groundwork contractors? Are you aware of the benefits associated with piling, the conditions under which it should be used, and how it can make work safer in areas with restricted space and headroom? All this, and more, will be covered on this page. Additionally, we invite you to read the testimonials from previous clients to see what they have to say about our services.
Piling is not a new technique. Even some of our earliest civilisations would drive timber into the ground to make foundation installations sturdier. Today, as the need for housing continues to increase, so too does the scarcity of land available for development. The land we do have is often of a much lower quality. Traditional foundations often struggle to keep pace in an increasingly complex and challenging industry, necessitating the installation of deep foundations or foundation reinforcement.
Our experts fully understand the importance and effectiveness of piles in Wimbledon and beyond. Piling techniques can deliver benefits which traditional foundations can’t. There is a sense of reassurance that comes with using groundwork contractors, which inspires confidence in our new basement installations, basement conversions, and underpinning services. While the process needs careful planning, this is never a problem for our groundworks company.
Here are some key benefits of piling:
Our range of piling methods, including restricted access piling, can easily handle heavy loads, providing stable foundation installations for above-ground loads. This makes piling especially suited to heavy buildings.
Piles offer more stability and provide foundation reinforcement in weaker soil conditions and on sloped land, which would otherwise struggle to, or be unable to, support the weight load of a heavier build in Wimbledon or beyond.
With piling, contractors drive deep foundations into the ground. Once we have finished a project, our work is always neat, tidy and professional. You cannot visibly see driven piles after the completion of construction work.
With restricted access piling, installations can be undertaken in confined areas where drilling holes isn’t always possible. This is the ideal solution for clients looking to install a new basement.
If you would like to discuss a project with the groundwork contractors at Piled Solutions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Offering foundation installations, basement conversions, and underpinning services to domestic, commercial, and industrial clients, our groundworks company is the smart choice for all important structural work in London, Surrey, and the wider UK.
