Underpinning

In association with the varying piling techniques available by us, these incorporate into the underpinning service we provide.

Where applicable, mass concrete traditional underpinning is undertaken as it is the most cost effective solution where the ground conditions dictate a depth of no more than 1.75m is required below ground level to found the underpinning bays. 

Beyond this depth, piled underpinning becomes both cost effective as well as a safer option in respect of health & safety regulations and requirements.

Piled Underpinning Techniques include :

Piled Needle Beams – Piles both internal and external
Cantilever Needle Beams – Piles either internal or external only
Piled Reinforced Concrete Slabs – either entire room or house is required to be stabilised

As with all of our piling works, full heave protection systems are available through varied techniques / materials.
