Foundation piling is the process of digging foundations in the ground to strengthen the unstable soil beneath the surface. As with the increase of building structure, the ground will not be able to support huge weights such as a new storey or adding other pieces of infrastructure.
Our piling contractors in London use quality piles to uplift loads in order to support taller structures. Pile foundations work by dispersing the weight of heavy buildings over a large surface area. Our piling specialists in London are employed mainly for the following purposes.

Before deciding on the types of piling, our building engineers thoroughly analyse the condition of the soil, climate and other aspects. Our piling contractors in London comprehend the project and engage with the builders to find a viable piling solution. Our crew will help you select the best piling type according to the soil surface. Our piling services adopt the best possible piling type that can increase the longevity and structural integrity of foundations beneath the structure.
The commonly used material used to construct piles for driven pile foundation is concrete, steel, and wood. Our quality piling services are offered by expert builders at a construction site; concrete and other piles are prefabricated for easy installation. Our pre-fabricated steel timber piles are drilled directly into the soil with a piling hammer. Our piles displace an equal volume of soil in granular soils, assisting the soil in becoming more solid. Soil compaction increases density and, as a result, bearing capacity.
End bearing piles, also known as point bearing piles, are mainly used for commercial sites to transfer heavy foundational loads from the topsoil to the rock beneath for a firmer and sturdy surface. Our piling company in London specialises in transferring weight to strong strata such as dense sand and gravel. Our point-bearing piles operate similarly to columns by passing through the top weak soil and resting on the firmer soil below. For critical and complex structural sites, our piling contractors in London recommend end-bearing piles to support major constructions.
Percussive and rotary methods are used to dig holes in the soil for the insertion of steel reinforcement and then fill the hole with concrete. Our piling construction in London team is proficient in quickly completing the work by filling the holes with reinforced concrete. One of the favourable advantages for the property owners is that these concrete piles customise the depth of the foundation to the needs of the project and efficiently utilise piles with smaller diameters.
