Piling in Stockport
We are piling contractors for house extensions, new builds and commercial units in Stockport and the surrounding areas, including Altrincham and Wilmslow.
If you require mini piling or underpinning, send over any plans you have and we’ll get back to you with a quote, usually within the day. If it’s urgent, give us a ring.
We regularly carry out piling in restricted access locations, including back gardens with narrow access or inside existing buildings. For larger loads, we can use small rigs to install bigger diameter piles where required.
Piling is typically needed where trees or drains are present, where backfill exists, or where digging down to suitable ground would be too costly.
Working alongside structural engineers and building control, we install piled foundations to the specified design, ensuring the structure has the support it needs. We can either provide a structural engineer’s design or work to one you already have.
If you want to discuss anything beforehand, I’m always happy to have an informal chat by phone, WhatsApp or email.
Mini Piling for house extension in Stockport
Piling Stockport – This job in Bramhall near Stockport was for a single storey extension but due to nearby trees and clay ground, heave protection was required. This is the stuff in the yellow underneath the beam, and the light blue on the inside, and this creates a void for if the clay ground was ever to swell.
Piled foundation in Stockport
The piles are welded together until they hit the required depth. The depth is determined by either end bearing friction or friction along the whole length of the pile. You will see us measuring how much the pile is moving so we know when it hits the “set” that is specified by the manufacturer of the mole, which is the tool that drives the pile downwards.
