Piling is one of the most trusted and popular processes used to build deep foundations by installing piles into the ground using different techniques. With a stable and strong foundation, you can construct any complicated and heightened structure. However, the process requires precision, attention to detail, and specialised skills.

Our Eminent Piling Services in Oxford
- CFA piling: One of the most popular piling techniques, highly suitable for residential and commercial projects where low to mid-range loading (depth of up to 25mm) is required.
- Open bored piling: Using a rotating auger, a bore is created in the ground, followed by pile installation. It is a cost-effective method sparing the hassle of extensive excavations.
- Mini piling: It uses piles with a shorter diameter ranging from 100-400mm, making them ideal for constricted work spaces where minimum noise and disruptions are a necessity.
- Contiguous retaining walls: These walls can be installed in challenging soil conditions. The piles are installed closely, giving them a wall-like structure, increasing the load-bearing capacity of the foundation, and protecting the structure from lateral earth pressure.
- Secant retaining walls: Secant walls involve intersecting reinforced concrete piles, enabling slope stabilisation. They work fine in different soil conditions and cause less vibrations and disruption.

Our Staggering Work Process
Consultation: Connect with the experts and book an appointment to discuss the project requirements in detail and get a quote.
On-site inspection: Our specialists and engineers will visit the construction site for geotechnical analysis, vicinity inspection, soil’s load-bearing capacity, and an overview of other aspects.
Designing: Post inspection, the architects meticulously design a piling foundation and specify pile design, size, and installation techniques.
Execution: Following the design, the installation process is seamlessly executed and completed using our state-of-the-art equipment.
Post-work analysis: Once the foundation is set and cured, certain tests, i.e. Static Pile Load Testing and Pile Dynamic Analysis, are done to ensure the required strength and stability is achieved.
Documentations: You are given the following documents to ensure transparency and legal compliance of the project:
- As-built records
- Copy of all concrete tickets
- Certificates for concrete cube tests
- Certificates of integrity tests
- Certificate for static load-bearing tests.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the applications of piling?
From home extensions, underpinnings, retaining walls, basements, and bridges to multi-storey commercial buildings, pilings can be used in any residential or commercial project where a deep foundation is a compulsion.
How deep can you penetrate the piles?
The pile penetration depends on the project’s requirements. However, we can dig the piles of diameter 750mm up to 25.5m into the ground using our state-of-the-art equipment.
What are your work timings?
Our team is available from Monday-Friday 7:00 am to 6:00 pm.
What should be the ideal space between piles?
The spacing depends on the nature of the ground, project demands, and other specifications, but ideally, the optimum spacing between the piles should be 3 times their diameter.
