Reliable & Genuine
We give a genuine, professional and reliable service with a "no bull" approach to the job. We will be there when we say we will and we don't take any short cuts - Your piles will always be driven to the correct set. If I, or the engineer can make suggestions that will save you money and time, we will.
Experienced Team
We have more than 20 years of experience in the construction industry, ensuring we get your concrete sufficently level for your bricklayer to start. Any problems that arise such as services being in the way or obstructions, we will always try to come up with the most effective solution.
Economical & Efficient
We use the Grundomat mole to install most piles(rigs are for the bigger jobs), as Grundomat are the market leaders in this field. We are also Tracto Technic (the makers of Grundomat) trained and use techniques that many of our competitors do not use. Some use incorrect methods, meaning a set cannot be correctly measured.
More than 20 years of expertise in piling
FirmBase Piling are based in Darwen, next to Blackburn, Lancashire, and cover the whole of the North West. We pile for projects such as extensions, conservatories, new builds and industrial units.
If you already have a design, we can quote from that or we deal direct with our structural engineer who will design your foundation complete with mathematical calculations that building control require.
You have usually dug out the trenches before you know it needs piling so we then come, install the piles, put the reinforcements cages on top and then concrete your job.
What we do
Mini Piling Services
Has your builder or building control officer said your new building needs to be piled?This is where we come in, send us your plans or dimensions by email/whatsapp or a phone call and we can usually give you a price within the day, maybe immediately for an extension.
Underpinning
Have you got signs of subsidence? It is usually noticed by cracks in masonry or your plastered walls. You may also notice it with your floors being out of level or your heads and cills on your windows not being level. If you have then your building may need underpinning.
We can mass fill or underpin utilising piles.
