Mini Piling

Mini Piling is a quick, cost-effective solution to the majority of groundwork and foundation problems.

What Is Mini Piling?

Piling is required when the ground area for an extension or build is not strong enough to hold the weight of the new structure. By drilling mini piles into the area, Basetec Piling can provide a strong, stable foundation for your building project.

Excellent all-round service from the Basetec team. They arrived when projected, were respectful of our home, got stuck in without fuss, and left the site in a good, clean state. They were recommended to us, and we'll recommend them to others.

Really pleased with our recent experience with Basetec. Called for some advice on our foundations on an extension and Jim came out same day to review the site, he clearly knew his stuff and provided a quote there and then, which was competitive against other prices we'd had. They were able to start work the following week, the lads cracked on with no fuss and nothing was a problem for them despite a few setbacks with machinery. All sorted hassle free including liaison with building inspector and structural calcs. Would definitely recommend Basetec for any groundworks especially on problematic ground.

The boys from Bolton have done a marvellous job for us carrying out piling for a single storey extension in very poor ground with a culvert nearby. Cannot praise them enough. Building inspector complimented them on the neatness and quality of workmanship. Basetec was recommended to us and we are very grateful for the recommendation. Also thanks to Jim for his caring nature his unbelievable work ethic and professionalism. Highest and kindest regards.

The Mini Piling Process

We follow a traditional piling method, including the below steps:

Preparation

mini piling preparation

Usually, foundation trenches will be dug by your builder. However, if not, we are happy to dig the foundation trench.

This trench provides space for the mini piles.

Installing The Mini Piles

Following the designs of our structural engineer, we will then install the mini piles and drive them to “set”. Essentially, this entails driving the piles through the ground until they cannot be go any lower.

Cutting The Mini Piles

We then cut the mini piles to the required height. Following this, we place reinforced steel beams on top and tie them securely to the original bars.

Securing The Structure

Following the installation of mini piles, we then place shutters around the side and bottom of the excavation. This forms a neat, solid structure for the concrete.

Building Inspection

At this stage, we will contact the building inspector. He will look at the structural engineers drawings and check the piles and beams are installed in agreement with these.

Concreting

Once we have approval from the building inspector, we will pour concrete over the piles and beams.
