We are piling contractors for home extensions, new build houses and commercial units all around Penrith and the wider area including Kendal & Carlisle.

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 Penrith being trees/drains nearby or backfill present and good ground being too costly to dig to. Also a lot of the new houses around the quay have been originally piled, with the piles going very deep. 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.
Penrith piled foundation services
Piling Penrith – The piling here was for a small extension around 3m x 3m. Four 150mm piles were needed and here you can see the job once the piles have been sent down, and the steel reinforcement is placed on top. We then shuttered on one side to save on wasting concrete. You can see the pale spacers that keep the shuttering away from the reinforcement to give the rebar an adequate amount of concrete all the way around.
Probably the best piling company covering Penrith
Once building control have been and inspected the reinforcement and pile locations, we can pour the concrete. At this stage we have vibrated the concrete down the piles and in the beam to get rid of trapped air. We have also leveled it with the help of the laser. You can see it’s now at a nice height to work from.
