Commercial piling with Vxcel
When you need to get the job done quickly, efficiently, and cost-effectively, look no further than Vxcel Piling. With around 15 years of experience, we have a long history of delivering commercial piling solutions for a diverse array of clients, including national brands like Volvo, Burger King, and Blackpool FC.
Our extensive in-house expertise enables us to provide a comprehensive service in which we can handle almost every aspect of the piling project. (Alongside our range of commercial services, we also offer affordable underpinning services and mini piling contract services, as a small-scale alternative to our range of commercial services.)
Equally, our status as an independent contractor means we can also work closely with other companies or experts who may already be working on the project, coordinating closely with them to get the job done on schedule and on budget.
Our qualifications
In everything we do here at Vxcel, safety is always one of our top priorities – for our customers, for our team, and for anyone in the surrounding area. Accordingly, we’ve been awarded the following accreditations:
- CHAS (Contractor Health and Safety) accreditation
- Constructionline accreditation
- SafeContractor accreditation
- SMAS accreditation
What’s more, all of our work is insured to high levels, and all of our staff are either trained to NVQ level, or are undergoing the final stages of the piling operative NVQ qualification – so you can always have total peace of mind in the quality, stability and longevity of the work we do.
What is piling?
Piling is a widely used technique used to establish firm foundations for structures under construction, especially in areas where the soil might otherwise not have the necessary strength required to support it. There are a number of different types of piling, but all share the same general process, in which columns (typically made of wood, metal or concrete) are inserted deeply into the ground. They act to transfer the building’s load to a specific depth, which ensures the stability and security of the final structure.
When do you need commercial piling?
There are a number of scenarios in which a site might need commercial piling. While not every situation will call for it, commercial piling is definitely necessary in the following instances:
- The ground has a high water table
- The soil’s stability is known to be affected by water
- The location is the site of a previous building or structure, whose foundations would be too expensive to remove
- The site already features unstable foundation trenches
- The ground is unsuitable to a depth of more than two metres
