Screw Piling Across Reading And Berkshire

We install screw pile foundations for homes, garden buildings and commercial sites across Reading and the wider Thames Valley.

Reading's ground varies a great deal: river gravels and soft alluvium along the Thames and the Kennet, clays across much of the town, and chalk in places, including areas with historic chalk mine workings. Screw piles cope well with this kind of variation, because each pile is screwed in until it reaches the torque that proves it can carry its load.

Near the rivers, a high water table and flood risk make deep trenches hard work. Screw piles go in with no excavation, and they are ready to build on as soon as they are in.

We also cover:

  • Caversham
  • Earley
  • Woodley
  • Tilehurst
  • Theale
  • Wokingham
  • Bracknell
  • Newbury
  • Maidenhead
  • Windsor

Which parts of Berkshire do you cover?

We cover Reading and the surrounding area, including Caversham, Earley, Woodley, Tilehurst, Wokingham, Bracknell, Newbury, Maidenhead and Windsor, and across the river to Henley-on-Thames.

Can you build on a flood plain site in Reading?

Screw piles are well suited to sites with a high water table, because there are no trenches to flood. Flood risk itself is a planning matter, so the foundation should follow your engineer's and planner's requirements, and we work to them.

How soon can building start after the piles go in?

Straight away. Screw piles can take their load as soon as they are installed, with no concrete to cure.
