Underpinning & Piling in Lancaster – 14-Day Residential Project

At Basetec Piling, we recently completed a 14-day domestic underpinning project in Lancaster, reinforcing the foundations of an existing home with a safe, compliant and long-term piling solution.

Working directly with the homeowner and supported by structural calculations from Jonathan Cooke (JC Structural), this project demonstrates our specialist knowledge in underpinning and piling for residential properties across Lancaster and the wider North West.

Foundation Underpinning in Lancaster – What We Delivered

This project required precise planning and a careful approach to strengthening the existing foundations. We combined underpinning techniques with steel piling to stabilise the structure without compromising the property above.

Our Process: Piling & Underpinning Step-by-Step

1. Site Setup & Ground Investigation
We began with a detailed assessment of ground conditions, identifying the areas in need of structural reinforcement.

2. Pile Installation & Excavation
Using specialist machinery from Eagle Plant, we installed steel piles at strategic locations to support the existing foundation.

3. Underpinning Works
Traditional underpinning methods were used to stabilise subsiding areas, transferring loads to the deeper pile system.

4. Concrete Pour
Chorley Concrete provided the high-strength mix, poured and finished to lock the piles and underpinning system into place.
