Screw Piles In London
Screw piles for London homes and commercial projects, sized for the load and for the clay, gravel or made ground found on your site.
Screw piling in London
London is where we do much of our work: rear extensions on terraced streets, garden studios and offices, and commercial sites where noise, vibration and spoil all have to be kept to a minimum.
Much of London is built on London Clay, which shrinks and swells as it dries and wets, and is a well-known cause of subsidence, particularly near trees. Screw piles take your foundation below the ground that moves, without deep trenches or heavy rigs.
Our compact equipment fits through side passages and narrow gates, so there is often no need to bring machinery through the house. With no vibration and no spoil, piles can go in right beside a party wall, which keeps things simple with the neighbours.

Yes. Installation produces no vibration and no excavation, so piles can be placed close to a party wall or a neighbouring building. You may still need a party wall agreement for your project, and we are happy to provide information for your surveyor.
Our torque heads are mounted on mini diggers from 1.5 to 5 tonnes, which fit through most side passages and gates. Where there is no side access, modular and hand-held equipment can be used instead.
