If you want it urgently, give us a ring, We can pile in restricted access sites like back gardens with narrow openings or inside buildings.
We pile for a number of reasons, with the biggest reasons around Morecambe being trees/drains nearby or backfill present and good ground being too costly to dig to. Working alongside structural engineers and building control, we install piled foundation to the correct specification ensuring your building has the support it needs. We can either provide a structural engineers design or work to one you already have. If you want want any information beforehand, I am always happy to have an informal conversation, either by phone or whatsapp/message/email.
Mini Piling for home extensions in Morecambe
Piling Morecambe – The Morecambe job shown here was for a single storey side extension. The trench was dug for us by the builder and at this stage we have installed the piles down to set, put in the reinforcement that the engineer designed and then shuttered the job. This is now ready for an inspection by building control who will tell us whether we are OK to proceed and concrete.
Concrete ring beam in Morecambe
The job has now been concreted. Ideally any water needs to be as best prevented from entering the trench. In winter you will always have some but any guttering or drains should be redirected so the water doesn’t dill the trench.
We vibrate the concrete with a vibrating poker to release trapped air in the beam, as well as to make sure the piles are filled. Then we level the concrete with the aid of a laser so your builder has a nice base to start laying.
